9 Pakuti mpangano wakuyamba, ukhana malamulo yakubvumizika yakucitira utumiki bwakupambulika ndipo ukhana mbuto yace yakucena pa dziko la pantsi.
2 Tendi limweri likhadamangidwa na bzipinda bziwiri. Cipinda cakuyamba cikhana cakuikhira kandiyero, meza na pau zakuwonesedwa* ndipo cikhacemeredwambo kuti Mbuto Yakucena.
3 Tsono kuseri kwa cinguwo caciwiri, kukhana cipinda ca mu tendimo cakucemeredwa Cipinda Cakucenesesa.
4 M’mwemo mukhana ciweyeweye ca oro cakutenthera ntsembe na thungwa la mpangano* lomwe likhadapintaridwi na oro ndipo mkati mwa thungwalo mukhana kamtsuko ka oro komwe kakhana cakudya cakucemeredwa mana pabodzi na mpsimbo ya Aroni yomwe idaphukira ire na minyala yakunyalala yomwe Mulungu akhadanemba malamulo yace.*
5 Padzaulu pa thungwalo pakhana akerubi awiri waulemerero, omwe akhampsinkha cakugwanankhirira* cace na matenga yawo. Tsono, tsapano ni nthawe lini yakufotokoza bzinthu bzimwebzi cibodzi na cibodzi.
6 Pomwe bzinthu bzimwebzi bzidamala kukonzedwa mwa njira imweyi, antsembe akhambapita nthawe zentse mu cipinda cakuyamba ca mu tendi kuti akacite mabasa yawo yakupambulika.

8 Tenepo, mzimu wakucena ukhalatiza padeca, kuti njira yakupitira m’cipinda cakucena ikhanati kuzimbulidwa pomwe tendi lakuyamba lire likhalipo.
9 Tendi limweri ni ciratizo ca nthawe ino ndipo mphaso na ntsembe bzimbaperekedwa mwakubverana na makonzedwe yamweya. Napo bziri tenepo, bzimwebzi bzingacitise lini munthu wakunamata Mulungu kukhala na mtima wabwino omwe ungamupase lini mulandu.
10 Bzinthu bzimwebzi bzikhandophatanidza bzakudya, bzakumwa na njira zakusiyana-siyana zakucenesera* wanthu ayai bzinthu. Bzimwebzi bzikhafunika kucitika tenepoyo, mwakubverana na bzomwe lamulo la Mozeji likhafuna ndipo malamuloyo yakhalewa bza bzinthu bza pa dziko la pantsi* ndipo yadaikhidwa mpaka nthawe yomwe ikhadalewedwa kale kuti alungamize bzinthu.
11 Tenepo, pomwe Kristu adabwera ninga mkulu wa antsembe wa bzinthu bzabwino bzomwe bzikhadacitika kale, iye adapita mu tendi likulu na labwino kwene-kwene, lakusiyana na lakuyamba lire, lomwe liribe kukonzedwa na manja ya wanthu ndipo likucita lini mbali ya bzinthu bza pa dziko la pantsi.
12 Iye adapita m’mbuto yakucena, sikuti na mulopa wa mbuzi ayai wa tumikono twa ng’ombe, koma na mulopa wace caiwo ndipo adacita bzimwebzi kabodzi kokha basi, acitipulumusa* mpaka kale-kale.
13 Pakuti penu mulopa wa mbuzi na wa mikono ya ng’ombe na dotha la ng’ombe ya phandauzi bzikawazidwa kwa wale omwe apswipizidwa bzimbawacitisa kukhala wakucena pamaso pa Mulungu,
14 tani pakulewa bza mulopa wa Jezu Kristu, omwe mwakuphatisa basa mzimu wakusaya kumala iye adabzipereka kwa Mulungu mwakusaya kuphonya? Kodi mulopayo un’dzacenesa lini mabasa yakufa m’mitima mwathu kuti ticite basa lakupambulika la Mulungu wamoyo?
15 Ndipopa, iye ni mkhala-pakati* wa mpangano mupsa, kuti anyakucemeredwa adzatambire utaka bwakusaya kumala, thangwe iye adafa ninga cakulombolera kuti awatsudzule ku pikado zawo zomwe adacita pomwe akhali mu mpangano wakale.
16 Thangwe munthu akacita mpangano na Mulungu, munthu omwe wacita mpanganoyo an’funika kufa.
17 Pakuti mpangano umbaphata basa munthu akafa ndipo mpanganoyo ungaphate lini basa, pomwe munthu omwe adacita naye mpanganoyo akana moyo.
18 Mwa njira ibodzi-bodziyi, mpangano wakuyamba ule ulibe kukhazikisidwa* mwakusaya kuphatisa basa Mulopa.
19 Pakuti pomwe Mozeji adauza wanthu wentse bzomwe lamulo limbalewa, iye adatenga mulopa wa tumikono twa ng’ombe na mulopa wa mbuzi pabodzi na madzi, ukuse bufuira kwene-kwene bwa bira na tumiti twa isopo ndipo adawazira bukhu la mpanganolo, aciwazirambo wanthu wentse.
20 Ndipo adalewa kuti: “Uyu ni mulopa omwe ukucitisa kuti mpangano omwe mudacita na Mulungu uphate basa ndipo iye akufuna kuti muteweze mpanganoyo.”
21 Ndipo iye adawazirambo mulopayo pa tendi na bzombo bzentse bzomwe bzikhaphatisidwa basa pa basa lakupambulika.
22 Inde, mwakubverana na lamulo pafupi-fupi bzinthu bzentse bzimbacenesedwa na mulopa, tsono pakasaya kucosedwa mulopa, wanthu angalekereredwe lini pikado zawo.
23 Na tenepo, bzire bzomwe bzikundendemezedwa na bzinthu bzakudzulu, bzikhafunika kucenesedwa mwa njira imweyi, tsono bzinthu bzakudzulu bzimbacenesedwa na ntsembe zabwino kwene-kwene kuposa ntsembe zimwezi.
24 Pakuti Kristu alibe kupita m’mbuto yakucena yakumangidwa na manja ya wanthu, yomwe ni cithunzi-thunzi ca mbuto caiyo, koma iye adapita kudzulu ndipo tsapano ali pamaso pa Mulungu thangwe ra ife.
25 Bzimwebzi bziribe kucitika kuti iye ambabzipereke yekha mwakubwereza-bwereza ninga momwe mkulu wa antsembe akhambacitira, mwakupita m’mbuto yakucena gole liri-lentse na mulopa omwe ukhali lini wace.
26 Thangwe bzingadakhala tenepo, iye angadambabonera kazinji kentse kuyambira kuciyambi caiko kwa dziko. Tsono, tsapano iye adawonekera kabodzi kokha mpaka kale-kale, kuphampha kwa nthawe ino kuti acose pikado mwakuphatisa basa ntsembe yace.
27 Ninga momwe bziriri na munthu kuti ambadikhirira kufa kabodzi kokha mpaka kale-kale, patsogolo pace acitongedwa,
