Berean Study Bible

1For since the law has but a shadow of the good things to come instead of the true form of these realities, it can never, by the same sacrifices that are continually offered every year, make perfect those who draw near.

1For the law is only a shadow of the good things to come, not the realities themselves. It can never, by the same sacrifices offered year after year, make perfect those who draw near to worship.

2Otherwise, would they not have ceased to be offered, since the worshipers, having once been cleansed, would no longer have any consciousness of sins?

2If it could, would not the offerings have ceased? For the worshipers would have been cleansed once for all, and would no longer have felt the guilt of their sins.

3But in these sacrifices there is a reminder of sins every year.

3Instead, those sacrifices are an annual reminder of sins,

6in burnt offerings and sin offerings you have taken no pleasure.

6In burnt offerings and sin offerings You took no delight.

7Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come to do your will, O God, as it is written of me in the scroll of the book.’”

7Then I said, ‘Here I am, it is written about Me in the scroll: I have come to do Your will, O God.’ ”

8When he said above, “You have neither desired nor taken pleasure in sacrifices and offerings and burnt offerings and sin offerings” (these are offered according to the law),

8In the passage above He says, “Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings You did not desire, nor did You delight in them” (although they are offered according to the law).

9then he added, “Behold, I have come to do your will.” He does away with the first in order to establish the second.

9Then He adds, “Here I am, I have come to do Your will.” He takes away the first to establish the second.

10And by that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

10And by that will, we have been sanctified through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

11And every priest stands daily at his service, offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.

11Day after day every priest stands to minister and to offer again and again the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.

12But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God,

12But when this Priest had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, He sat down at the right hand of God.

13waiting from that time until his enemies should be made a footstool for his feet.

13Since that time, He waits for His enemies to be made a footstool for His feet,

14For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified.

14because by a single offering He has made perfect for all time those who are being sanctified.

15And the Holy Spirit also bears witness to us; for after saying,

15The Holy Spirit also testifies to us about this. First He says:

16“This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my laws on their hearts, and write them on their minds,”

16“This is the covenant I will make with them after those days, declares the Lord. I will put My laws in their hearts and inscribe them on their minds.”

17then he adds, “I will remember their sins and their lawless deeds no more.”

17Then He adds: “Their sins and lawless acts I will remember no more.”

18Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin.

18And where these have been forgiven, an offering for sin is no longer needed.

19Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the holy places by the blood of Jesus,

19Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus,

20by the new and living way that he opened for us through the curtain, that is, through his flesh,

20by the new and living way opened for us through the curtain of His body,

21and since we have a great priest over the house of God,

22let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.

22let us draw near with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.

23Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful.

23Let us hold resolutely to the hope we profess, for He who promised is faithful.

24And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works,

24And let us consider how to spur one another on to love and good deeds.

25not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.

25Let us not neglect meeting together, as some have made a habit, but let us encourage one another, and all the more as you see the Day approaching.

26For if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins,

26If we deliberately go on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no further sacrifice for sins remains,

27but a fearful expectation of judgment, and a fury of fire that will consume the adversaries.

27but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that will consume all adversaries.

28Anyone who rejected the law of Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses.

29How much worse punishment, do you think, will be deserved by the one who has trampled underfoot the Son of God, and has profaned the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and has outraged the Spirit of grace?

30For we know Him who said, “Vengeance is Mine; I will repay,” and again, “The Lord will judge His people.”

31It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

32But recall the former days when, after you were enlightened, you endured a hard struggle with sufferings,

32Remember the early days that you were in the light. In those days, you endured a great conflict in the face of suffering.

33sometimes being publicly exposed to reproach and affliction, and sometimes being partners with those so treated.

33Sometimes you were publicly exposed to ridicule and persecution; at other times you were partners with those who were so treated.

34For you had compassion on those in prison, and you joyfully accepted the plundering of your property, since you knew that you yourselves had a better possession and an abiding one.

34You sympathized with those in prison and joyfully accepted the confiscation of your property, knowing that you yourselves had a better and permanent possession.

35Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward.

35So do not throw away your confidence; it holds a great reward.

36For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God you may receive what is promised.

36You need to persevere, so that after you have done the will of God, you will receive what He has promised.

37For, “Yet a little while, and the coming one will come and will not delay;

37For, “In just a little while, He who is coming will come and will not delay.

38but my righteous one shall live by faith, and if he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him.”

38But My righteous one will live by faith; and if he shrinks back, I will take no pleasure in him.”

39But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who have faith and preserve their souls.
