\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.
