\subsection{Hebrews 8}
\VS{1} But the main point of that being said [is this]: We have such [a] chief-priest, who sat 
at the right of the throne of greatness in the heavens, 
\VS{2} minister of 
the holy [ones] and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, not man. 
\VS{3} For every chief-priest, when bringing [a] gift, also appoints [a] 
sacrifice; wherefore [he] has necessity to bring something in addition to that 
which he brought. 
\VS{4} If therefore he was upon land, neither was he 
priest, while that being brought was the gifts according to the law, 
\VS{5} which [is] in pattern and shadow of the heavenly they minister, just as it was 
revealed when Moses was [about] to complete the tabernacle, for: See, I say, you 
will do everything according to the pattern having been shown you in the 
mountain. 
\VS{6} But he has not attained [a] more outstanding ministry, as much 
as he is arbitrator of a greater\footnote{or ``stronger'', ``more 
effective''} contract, which upon [a] greater promise is enacted law. 
\VS{7} For if that first was faultless, place would not have been sought for [a] 
second. 
\VS{8} For, fault being found with them, he says,

\begin{verse}
Behold [the] days come, says [the] Lord, \\
And I will complete upon the house [of] Israel \\
 and upon the house [of] Judah [a] new contract\footnote{or ``testament'', 
``covenant''} \\
\VS{9} Not according to the contract which I made with their fathers 
\\
In the day of my taking hold of their hand \\
To lead them out of the land of Egypt, \\
For they did not abide in my contract, \\
And I ignored them, says the Lord. \\
\VS{10} For this contract\footnote{or ``testament'', ``covenant''} [is] what I 
will contract \\
 to the house of Israel \\
After those days, says the Lord, \\
Giving my laws to their mind\footnote{or ``intellect''}, \\
And upon their heart will I write them, \\
And I will be to them for God, \\
And they will be to me for people. \\
\VS{11} And they will \negd{not} each teach his citizen, \\
And each his brother, saying, Know the Lord. \\
For all will know me \\
From small until their great. \\
\VS{12} For I will be merciful to their injustices, \\
And I will \negd{not} still remember their sins.
\end{verse}

\VS{13} In saying ``new" he makes old the first. But that [thing] growing old [and] aging 
[is] near disappearance.
