7 ¹Melikizedeki uyu, mfumu ya Salemu, wansembe wa Wam'mwambamwamba, Atate wathu, anakumana ndi Abrahamu pamene anabwerera kuchokera kukagonjetsa mafumu, namdalitsa iye. ²Abrahamu anamupatsa iye chakhumi cha zinthu zonse. Dzina lake, poyamba, likutanthauza mfumu ya chilungamo, kenako komanso mfumu ya Salemu—kutanthauza mfumu ya mtendere. ³Wopanda atate, wopanda amayi, wopanda mbiri ya makolo, wopanda chiyambi cha masiku kapena mapeto a moyo, koma monga Mwana wa Atate wathu, iye akhalabe wansembe nthawi zonse.

⁴Taganizirani kukula kwa munthu uyu: Abrahamu kholo lathu anamupatsa iye chakhumi cha zofunkha. ⁵Mbadwa za Levi amene amakhala ansembe alamulidwa ndi lamulo kuti alandire chakhumi kwa anthu—abale awowo—ngakhale nawonso ndi mbadwa za Abrahamu. ⁶Koma iye, ngakhale sanali mbadwa yawo, analandira chakhumi kwa Abrahamu, namdalitsa amene anali ndi malonjezo. ⁷Palibe kukayika kuti wamng'ono amadalitsidwa ndi wamkulu. ⁸Mbali imodzi, zakhumi zimalandiridwa ndi anthu amene amafa; mbali inayo, ndi amene akuchitiridwa umboni kuti ali ndi moyo. ⁹Munthu anganene ngakhale kuti Levi, amene amalandira chakhumi, anapereka chakhumicho kudzera mwa Abrahamu, ¹⁰pakuti anali adakali m'thupi la kholo lake pamene Melikizedeki anakumana ndi Abrahamu.

¹¹Ngati unsembe wa Levi unabweretsa ungwiro—anthu analandira lamulo pansi pa unsembewu—nanga chifukwa chiyani panafunika wansembe wina, wa m'dongosolo la Melikizedeki, osati wotchedwa monga mwa dongosolo la Aroni? ¹²Pakuti pamene unsembe usintha, lamulo liyeneranso kusintha. ¹³Pakuti iye amene zinthu izi zikunenedwa za iye anali wa fuko lina, limene mwa ilo palibe munthu anatumikirapo pa guwa la nsembe. ¹⁴Zikuonekeratu kuti Ambuye wathu anachokera mu fuko la Yuda; Mose sananene kanthu za ansembe ochokera mu fukolo. ¹⁵Ndipo izi zikuonekera koposa pamene wansembe wina auka mofanana ndi Melikizedeki, ¹⁶amene wakhala wansembe osati mwa lamulo la kubadwa kwa thupi koma mwa mphamvu ya moyo wosawonongeka.

¹⁷Pakuti akuchitiridwa umboni za iye, “Inu ndinu wansembe nthawi zonse, m'dongosolo la Melikizedeki.”

¹⁸Mbali imodzi, lamulo lakale likuchotsedwa chifukwa cha kufooka kwake ndi kusapindula kwake. ¹⁹Lamulo silinapangitse kanthu kukhala kangwiro; koma chiyembekezo choposa chikubwera, chimene kudzera mwa icho timayandikira kwa Atate wathu. ²⁰Izi sizinachitike popanda lumbiro, pakuti enawo anakhala ansembe popanda lumbiro,

²¹koma iye anakhala wansembe ndi lumbiro, ndi amene anati kwa iye: “Atate wathu walumbira ndipo sadzasintha maganizo ake, ‘Inu ndinu wansembe nthawi zonse.’” ^a a v21 Amene 'anati' lumbiro ndi Atate wathu, amene anakhazikitsa unsembe wosatha wa Yesu. Salmo 110 ndi salmo lotchulidwa kwambiri m'Chipangano Chatsopano—chotchulidwa chilichonse chikuloza kwa Yesu.

²²Mwa muyeso womwewo, Yesu wakhala chikole cha pangano loposa.

²³Ansembe akale anali ambiri, chifukwa imfa inkawaletsa kupitiriza mu udindo wawo, ²⁴koma iye ali ndi unsembe wake wamuyaya, chifukwa iye akhalabe nthawi zonse. ²⁵Choncho iye akhoza kupulumutsa kwathunthu amene amadza kwa Atate wathu kudzera mwa iye, popeza iye ali ndi moyo nthawi zonse kuti awapempherere.

²⁶Mkulu wa ansembe woteroyu anatiyenera: woyera, wopanda cholakwa, wosadetsedwa, wopatukana ndi ochimwa, wokwezedwa pamwamba pa miyamba. ²⁷Mosiyana ndi akulu a ansembe aja, iye safunika kupereka nsembe tsiku ndi tsiku—poyamba chifukwa cha machimo ake, kenako chifukwa cha machimo a anthu—popeza anachita izi kamodzi kokha, nadzipereka yekha. ²⁸Lamulo likuika anthu ofooka kukhala akulu a ansembe, koma mau a lumbiro, amene anadza lamulo litatha, akuika Mwana, amene anapangidwa kukhala wangwiro nthawi zonse.
