Hebrews 7

For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him;

Mèlkisedèk sa a, se te wa peyi Salèm, yon prèt ki t'ap sèvi Bondye ki anwo nan syèl la. Lè Abraram t'ap tounen lakay li, apre li te fin kraze kèk wa nan yon batay, Mèlkisedèk vin kontre l', li ba l' benediksyon.

To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace;

Lè sa a, Abraram separe ba li yon dizyèm nan tou sa li te pran. Non Mèlkisedèk la gen de sans. Nan yon premye sans, li vle di Wa ki bay jistis la. Men, akòz li te wa peyi Salèm, li gen yon dezyèm sans. Li vle di tou Wa ki bay kè poze a.

Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.

Mèlkisedèk sa a, nou pa konn ni papa l', ni manman l', ni okenn nan zansèt li yo. Yo pa di ki bò l' te fèt, ni ki bò l' mouri. Li tankou Pitit Bondye a, li rete prèt pou tout tan.

Now consider how great this man was, unto whom even the patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils.

Nou tou wè ki kalite grannèg nonm sa a te ye, pou granpapa nou, Abraram, te ba li yon dizyèm nan tou sa l' te pran nan batay la.

And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham:

Dapre lalwa Moyiz, se nan ras Levi ase yo chwazi moun ki pou sèvi prèt. Prèt sa yo resevwa lòd pou yo mande pèp la yon dizyèm sou tout bagay, sa vle di, yo mande moun ki sitwayen menm peyi ak yo pou bay yon dizyèm nan tou sa yo genyen. Men, yo tout se pitit pitit Abraram yo ye.

But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.

Mèlkisedèk menm pa t' moun ras Levi. Men malgre sa, Abraram te ba li yon dizyèm nan tou sa li te pran. Sa ki pi rèd ankò, Mèlkisedèk bay moun ki te resevwa pwomès Bondye a benediksyon.

And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better.

Moun ki bay benediksyon pi gran pase moun ki resevwa benediksyon. Sa se vre.

And here men that die receive tithes; but there he receiveth them, of whom it is witnessed that he liveth.

Nan ka prèt ras Levi yo, ofrann yon dizyèm lan se pou moun ki gen pou mouri. Men, nan ka Mèlkisedèk la, ladim lan se pou yon moun ki vivan, jan sa ekri nan Liv la.

And as I may so say, Levi also, who receiveth tithes, payed tithes in Abraham.

Gen plis ankò: nou ka di lè Abraram te bay ofrann dizyèm lan, Levi te peye l' tou, li menm Levi ki gen pitit pitit li yo k'ap resevwa ofrann dizyèm lan koulye a.

For he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedec met him.

Paske, nan yon sans, Levi ki pa t' ankò fèt te nan ren granpapa l', Abraram, lè Mèlkisedèk te vin kontre l' la.

If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?

Se sou baz travay prèt ras Levi yo Bondye te bay pèp Izrayèl la lalwa Moyiz la. Si travay prèt ras Levi yo te yon travay ki te bon nèt, pa ta gen nesesite menm pou yon lòt prèt ki menm jan ak Mèlkisedèk men ki pa menm jan ak Arawon ta vini.

For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.

Lè yo chanje travay prèt la, se pou yo chanje lalwa a tou.

For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar.

Men, nan tout pawòl sa yo, se sou Seyè a y'ap pale. Men li menm, li soti nan yon lòt branch fanmi, ki pa janm gen pesonn ladan l' ki te konn fè sèvis prèt yo devan lòtèl la.

For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.

Sa se bagay tout moun konnen, Jezi te fèt nan branch fanmi Jida. Moyiz pa t' janm bay non sa a lè li t'ap pale sou prèt yo.

And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest,

Bon, men yon lòt pwen k'ap eklèsi keksyon an plis toujou. Nou wè se yon lòt prèt ki tankou Mèlkisedèk ki vin la a.

Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life.

Yo pa t' fè l' prèt dapre regleman lèzòm: men, se akòz pouvwa lavi ki p'ap janm fini an kifè yo fè l' prèt.

For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.

Men sa ki ekri nan Liv la: Ou prèt pou tout tan menm jan ak Mèlkisedèk.

For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof.

Konsa, yo mete ansyen regleman an sou kote, paske li fèb, li pa t' kapab sèvi anyen ankò.

For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God.

Lalwa Moyiz la pa t' kapab rann anyen bon nèt sou tout pwen. Men, koulye a, yo ban nou yon pi bèl espwa, kifè nou ka pwoche bò kot Bondye.

And inasmuch as not without an oath he was made priest:

Gen yon lòt bagay ankò: Se sèman Bondye te fè a. Bondye te fè lòt yo prèt san l' pa t' fè sèman.

(For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath by him that said unto him, The Lord sware and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec:)

Men pou Jezi, Bondye te fè sèman lè li t'ap mete l' prèt, paske li te di: Bondye fè sèman. L'ap toujou kenbe pawòl li: Ou prèt pou tout tan.

By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.

Konsa, avèk Jezi sa ban nou yon garanti, nou gen yon lòt kontra ak Bondye ki pi bon lontan pase premye a.

And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:

Gen yon lòt diferans ankò: Te gen anpil prèt nan lòt kategori a, paske se tout tan yo t'ap mouri. Yon sèl pa t' ka kenbe travay la nèt ale.

But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.

Men, Jezi li menm toujou vivan, li pa janm bezwen renmèt travay prèt la bay okenn lòt moun pou fè l' nan plas li.

Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

Se poutèt sa, depi koulye a, epi pou tout tan, li ka delivre tout moun, l'ap fè yo pwoche bò kot Bondye paske li menm li toujou vivan, l'ap lapriyè Bondye pou yo.

For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;

Konsa, Jezi se granprèt nou te bezwen an. Li bon nèt, li pa janm fè okenn bagay ki mal, ni okenn peche. Yo mete l' apa, yo wete l' nan mitan moun k'ap fè peche yo. Bondye leve l', li mete l' pi wo pase syèl la.

Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself.

Li pa tankou lòt granprèt yo. Li pa bezwen ap ofri chak jou yon bann bèt pou yo touye pou peche pa l' yo anvan, epi pou peche pèp la apre sa. Li pa nan sa li menm. Li fè yon sèl ofrann fini ak sa lè li te ofri tèt li a.

For the law maketh men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for evermore.

Dapre lalwa Moyiz la, se moun ki poko bon nèt yo te mete sèvi granprèt. Men, dapre pawòl sèman Bondye a, pawòl ki vin lontan apre lalwa a, moun Bondye mete granprèt la, se Pitit li a ki te vin bon nèt sou tout pwen pou tout tan.
