Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1This Melchizedek was king of Salem and priest of God Most High. He met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him,
1Melchizedek se inge el tuh tokosra lun acn Salem, ac el mwet tol lun God Fulatlana. Ke Abraham el tuh foloko liki mweun se ma el kutangla tokosra akosr ah, Melchizedek el tuh osun nu sel ac akinsewowoyalla.
2and Abraham apportioned to him a tenth of everything. First, his name means “king of righteousness.” Then also, “king of Salem” means “king of peace.”
2Ac Abraham el tuh sang nu sel sie tafu singoul ke ma nukewa ma el sruokya ah. (Kalmen Melchizedek pa “Tokosra lun Suwoswos”; na ke sripen el pa tokosra lun Salem, pangpang pac el “Tokosra lun Misla.”)
3Without father or mother or genealogy, without beginning of days or end of life, like the Son of God, he remains a priest for all time.
3Wangin ma simla ke papa tumal Melchizedek ku nina kial, ku kutena fwilin mwet matu lal. Wangin pac ma simla in akkalemye isusla ku misa lal. El oana Wen nutin God; el mwet tol na nwe tok.
4Consider how great Melchizedek was: Even the patriarch Abraham gave him a tenth of the plunder.
4Kowos ku in akilen lah el arulana fulat. Abraham, mwet matu pwengpeng lasr, el sang nu sel sie tafu singoul ke ma nukewa ma el sruokya ke mweun ah.
5Now the law commands the sons of Levi who become priests to collect a tenth from the people—that is, from their brothers—though they too are descended from Abraham.
5Ma Sap uh fahk mu mwet in fwilin tulik natul Levi su mwet tol, elos enenu in eisani sie tafu singoul sin mwet Israel wialos, mwet inge finne oayapa mwet in fwilin tulik natul Abraham.
6But Melchizedek, who did not trace his descent from Levi, collected a tenth from Abraham and blessed him who had the promises.
6Melchizedek el tia ma ke fwilin tulik natul Levi, a el tuh eis sie tafu singoul sel Abraham ac akinsewowoyal. Abraham pa mwet se wulela lun God oasr se.
7And indisputably, the lesser is blessed by the greater.
7Arulana kalem lah el su akinsewowoye sie mwet, el fulat liki mwet se ma akinsewowoyeyuk.
8In the case of the Levites, mortal men collect the tenth; but in the case of Melchizedek, it is affirmed that he lives on.
8Fin nu ke mwet tol uh, sie tafu singoul tuh orekeni sin mwet ma ac misa; a funu Melchizedek, el moulna ac el pa eis sie tafu singoul sac, oana ke Ma Simusla uh fahk.
9And so to speak, Levi, who collects the tenth, paid the tenth through Abraham.
9Na kut ku in fahk mu ke Abraham el sang sie tafu singoul sac, Levi (su fwilin tulik natul pa orani sie tafu singoul uh) el oayapa moli.
10For when Melchizedek met Abraham, Levi was still in the loin of his ancestor.
10Mweyen Levi el soenna isusla in pacl sac, tuh kut ku in fahk mu el oasr na in manol Abraham, papa matu se tumal, ke pacl se Melchizedek el tuh sonol ah.
11Now if perfection could have been attained through the Levitical priesthood (for on this basis the people received the law), why was there still need for another priest to appear—one in the order of Melchizedek and not in the order of Aaron?
11Orekma lun mwet tol ke sruf lal Levi pa sie oakwuk yohk in Ma Sap ma tuh itukyang nu sin mwet Israel. Na, funu ku in oasr suwoswos lun mwet ke sripen orekma lun mwet tol Levi inge, lukun tia eneneyuk in oasr sie pacna mwet tol saya sikyak in oana Melchizedek, su tia ma ke sruf lal Aaron.
12For when the priesthood is changed, the law must be changed as well.
12Tuh ke oakwuk nu ke suleyen mwet tol fin ayaolla, na enenu pac in oasr ayaol nu ke ma sap uh.
13He of whom these things are said belonged to a different tribe, from which no one has ever served at the altar.
13Ac Leum lasr, su ma inge fwack kacl, el ma in siena sruf, ac soenna oasr mwet tol sikyak in sruf se lal inge.
14For it is clear that our Lord descended from Judah, a tribe as to which Moses said nothing about priests.
14Arulana eteyuk lah el tuh isusla in sruf lal Judah; ac Moses el tiana srumun sruf se inge ke el kaskaskin mwet tol uh.
15And this point is even more clear if another priest like Melchizedek appears,
15Ma inge sifilpa arulana kalemla; sie pacna kain mwet tol sikyak tari su oapana Melchizedek.
16one who has become a priest not by a law of succession, but by the power of an indestructible life.
16El tuh tia orekla sie mwet tol ke sripen ma sap ku oakwuk lun sruf lal uh, a ke ku lun moul lal ma wangin safla kac.
17For it is testified: “You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.”
17Tuh Ma Simusla uh fahk, “Kom ac fah sie mwet tol nwe tok, in oana mwet tol Melchizedek.”
18So the former commandment is set aside because it was weak and useless
18Ke ma inge ma sap meet ah sisila tari ke sripen ma sap sac munas ac wangin sripa.
19(for the law made nothing perfect), and a better hope is introduced, by which we draw near to God.
19Tuh ma sap lal Moses tia ku in aksuwosyela kutena ma. Ac inge ituku nu sesr sie finsrak su wo liki na ma kut tuh finsrak kac meet ah, su akfototoye kut nu yurin God.
20And none of this happened without an oath. For others became priests without an oath,
20Sayen ma inge, oasr fulahk se God El orala. Wangin kain in fulahk ouinge tuh orek ke srisrngiyuki mwet tol ngia.
21but Jesus became a priest with an oath by the One who said to Him: “The Lord has sworn and will not change His mind: ‘You are a priest forever.’”
21A ke Jesus el tuh orekla sie mwet tol, God El orala sie fulahk ac fahk nu sel, “Leum El tuh orala sie wulela ku Ac El ac fah tiana ekulla, su fahk: ‘Kom ac fah sie mwet tol nwe tok.’”
22Because of this oath, Jesus has become the guarantee of a better covenant.
22Kalmen ma inge pa Jesus el mwe akpwaye nu sesr lah ac fah oasr sie wuleang inmasrlosr ac God su wo liki ma meet ah.
23Now there have been many other priests, since death prevented them from continuing in office.
23Oasr pac sie ma ekla: pus sunun mwet tol in pacl meet ah, mweyen elos misa ac tia ku in sifil oru orekma kunalos.
24But because Jesus lives forever, He has a permanent priesthood.
24A Jesus el ac moulna nwe tok, ac orekma in tol lal uh ac tia sifil itukyang nu sin sie mwet saya.
25Therefore He is able to save completely those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to intercede for them.
25Ouinge el ku in molelosla nukewa su tuku nu yurin God kacl, inge ac nwe tok, mweyen el moul ma pahtpat tuh elan siyuk nu sin God kaclos.
26Such a high priest truly befits us—One who is holy, innocent, undefiled, set apart from sinners, and exalted above the heavens.
26Ke ma inge, Jesus pa kain Mwet Tol Fulat se ma kut enenu. El mutal; wangin mwatal ac wangin ma fohkfok in el. El srisrila liki mwet koluk, ac akfulatyeyuk el nu yen fulatlana inkusrao.
27Unlike the other high priests, He does not need to offer daily sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the sins of the people; He sacrificed for sin once for all when He offered up Himself.
27El tia oana mwet tol fulat ngia; el tia enenu in orek kisa ke len nukewa — nu ke ma koluk lal sifacna meet, na tufah nu ke ma koluk lun mwet uh. El oru kisa sefanna, ke pacl sefanna in akfalye pacl nukewa, ke el kisakunul sifacna.
28For the law appoints as high priests men who are weak; but the oath, which came after the law, appointed the Son, who has been made perfect forever.
28Ma Sap lal Moses uh srisrngi mwet sesuwos elos in mwet tol fulat; a wulela se lun God wi fulahk sac, ma orekla tukun Ma Sap uh, pa orekmakinyuk in sulela Wen natul nu ke mwet tol fulat, ac Wen se inge suwoswoslana nwe tok.
