Ovaheberi 7:1-28
7 Ndele Melkisedek, ohamba yaSalem, omupristeri waKalunga Omukombadambada, okwa shakena naAbraham ta di kolwoodi eshi a finda eehamba, nokwa nangeka Abraham noupuna,
2 opo nee Abraham okwe mu pa* oshitimulongo shomoinima yaye aishe. Edina laMelkisedek otali ti, “Ohamba youyuki” nosho yo ohamba yaSalem, sha hala okutya, “Ohamba yombili.”
3 Xe naina kava li ve shiivike nokapa li ondjokonona yepata laye, nokaku shiivike kutya okwa dalwa naini nokwa fya naini. Ndele molwaashi okwa li ngaashi Omona waKalunga, okwa kala omupristeri fiyo alushe.
4 Omulumenhu oo okwa li a tumbala nomolwaasho tatekulululwa Abraham a li e mu pa oshitimulongo shomoinima ya denga mbada oyo a li a likola kolwoodi.
5 Metwokumwe nOmhango, ovana vaLevi ovo va nangekwa po ve li ovapristeri ova li va lombwelwa va pewe oitimulongo kovanhu, sha hala okutya kovamwaxe, nonande ove li oludalo* laAbraham.
6 Ndele omulumenhu oo a li ehe fi womoludalo laLevi okwa pewa oitimulongo kuAbraham nokwa nangeka noupuna Abraham oo a li ta ka wanifilwa omaudaneko.
7 Osho oshi li oumbangi wa kola kutya ou munini okwa nangekwa noupuna kwaao munene.
8 Ovalevi otava fi nonande ova pewa oitimulongo, ndele shi na sha nomulumenhu oo a pewa oitimulongo, Omishangwa oda ti kutya ota kala nomwenyo.
9 Onghee otaku dulu okutiwa kutya Levi oo a pewa oitimulongo naye okwa yandja oitimulongo okupitila muAbraham,
10 molwaashi ka li natango a dalwa* eshi xekulululwa a li a shakena naMelkisedek.
11 Ngeenge ovapristeri vomepata laLevi, ovo va li koshi yOmhango oyo ya li ya pewa Ovaisrael, ova li tava dulu okweetela ovanhu ewaneneno, mbela ngeno otwa pumbwa ngoo omupristeri panghedi yaMelkisedek? Ile hano osha wana ashike okukala nomupristeri panghedi yaAron?
12 Molwaashi elongekido li na sha noupristeri ola lunduluka, Omhango nayo oya li ya pumbwa okulunduluka.
13 Omulumenhu oo ta popilwa oinima oyo okwa dja mepata limwe li lili, omo inamu dja nande oumwe a li ha yakula koaltari.
14 Osha yela kutya Omwene wetu okwa dja mepata laJuda, ashike Moses ina popya sha shi na sha novapristeri va dja mepata olo.
15 Osho osha ka yela mo nawa eshi pe ke uya omupristeri umwe a fa Melkisedek,
16 oo a li ta yakula e li omupristeri, ashike inashi likolelela kepata omo a dja ngaashi sha li paMhango, ndele omolwaashi a li e na eenghono odo de mu pa omwenyo oo itau dulu okuhanaunwa po.
17 Omushangwa umwe owa popya shi na sha naye, wa ti: “Ove omupristeri panghedi yaMelkisedek, noto kala omupristeri fiyo alushe.”
18 Ndele omhango yotete oya xulifwa po molwaashi oya ngabekwa nokai na ekwafo lasha.
19 Omhango inai etifa po ewaneneno, ndele eteelelo olo tu na ole shi ninga, nohatu ehene popepi naKalunga okupitila mulo.
20 Kakele kaasho, omupristeri oo ine uya po ashike nopehe na eano lasha,
21 (osheshi ope na ovalumenhu vamwe va ninga ovapristeri nopehe na eano, ndele ou okwa ninga omupristeri okupitila meano olo la anwa kuKalunga, oo a popya shi na sha naye a ti: “Jehova okwa ana, noita lundulula omadiladilo aye* oo kutya, ‘Ove oto kala omupristeri fiyo alushe’ ”).
22 Jesus oku li onga oumbangi oo tau ulike kutya ehangano la denga mbada otali ka tulwa moilonga.
23 Shimwe vali, ovapristeri ohava fi noihava dulu vali okutwikila noilonga yavo, nomolwaasho hava pingenwa po,
24 ndele molwaashi ye ota kala fiyo alushe, ita pingenwa po e li omupristeri.
25 Onghee ota dulu filufilu okuxupifa ovo hava ilikana kuKalunga okupitila muye, molwaashi ota kala nomwenyo fiyo alushe opo e va indilile kuKalunga.
26 Osha yeleka eshi tu na omupristeri munene oo omudiinini, ehe na oshipo, a koshoka, a yooloka ko kovalunde nokwa tumbalekwa e dulife eulu.*
27 Mepingafano novapristeri vanene vakwao, ye ina pumbwa okuyamba omayambo efiku keshe, amwe ngeno oomatimba aye ofimbo amwe oomatimba ovanhu, molwaashi ye okwe shi ninga lumwe aluke eshi a yamba po omwenyo waye.
28 PaMhango, opa li hapa nangekwa ovapristeri vanene ve na omaunghundi, ndele metwokumwe neano olo la ka ningwa konima yOmhango, opa nangekwa Omona waKalunga, oo ta kala a wanenena fiyo alushe.
