Our Papa Don Talk
One deep sermon wey show say Christ pass angels, pass Moses, and pass the old priesthood—na Him be the great High Priest wey open the way to we Papa.
1 1Long time ago, for plenty times and plenty ways, our Papa wey dey for heaven talk to our ancestors through di prophets. 2But for dis last days, e don talk to us through im Pikin, wey e appoint as di one wey go inherit everytin, and na through am e take make di whole universe. 3Di Pikin na di shining light of our Papa glory, di exact image of who e be, wey dey hold everytin togeda through im word wey get power. After wey e don clean sin comot, e siddon for di right hand of di Majesty for up. 4E come big pass di angels, just as di name wey e inherit big pass dem own.
5For which of di angels our Papa ever tell, “You be my Pikin; today I don become your Papa”? Or again, “I go be im Papa, and e go be my Pikin”? a a v5 Our Papa here dey talk di words of two Old Testament promises — Psalm 2 and di promise wey e give David — and di New Testament show say dem reach dia full meaning inside Jesus, di Pikin wey dey live forever.
Far Pass Di Angels
6And again, wen e bring di firstborn come inside di world, e talk, “Make all my angels worship am. 7Concerning di angels e talk, “E dey make im angels turn wind, and im servants turn fire wey dey blaze.”
8But concerning di Pikin e talk, “Your throne, O God, go dey forever and ever, and di scepter of correct-and-holy way na di scepter of your kingdom. b b v8 For dis Old Testament quotation, our Papa dey talk to di Pikin and call am God — na di clearest confession for di Bible say di Pikin share di Papa own God-identity. 9You don love correct-and-holy way and hate wickedness; na why our Papa, your Papa, don anoint you with di oil of gladness pass your companions.”
10And, “For di beginning, Oga, na you lay di foundation of di earth, and di heavens na di work of your hand. c c v10 Di Papa here dey talk to di Pikin as Oga, dey name am as di one wey lay di foundation of di earth. Di Pikin creation work, wey dem mention for verse 2, na di Papa imself now dey name am. 11Dem go perish, but you go remain; dem all go wear out like cloth. 12You go roll dem up like robe; like cloth dem go change. But you be di same, and your years no go ever end.”
13But for which of di angels our Papa ever talk, “Siddon for my right hand till I go make your enemies turn footstool for your leg”?”
14No be all di angels na spirits wey dey serve, wey dem send make dem serve dose wey go soon inherit salvation?
