1[The] point of what we are saying [is this]: We do have such a high priest, who sat down at [the] right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven, 1Κεφάλαιον δὲ ἐπὶ τοῖς λεγομένοις τοιοῦτον ἔχομεν ἀρχιερέα ὃς ἐκάθισεν ἐν δεξιᾷ τοῦ θρόνου τῆς Μεγαλωσύνης ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς
2[and who] ministers in the sanctuary and TRUE tabernacle set up by the Lord, not by man. 2τῶν ἁγίων λειτουργὸς καὶ τῆς σκηνῆς τῆς ἀληθινῆς ἣν ἔπηξεν Κύριος οὐκ ἄνθρωπος
3And since every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices, [it was] necessary [for] this One also to have something to offer. 3Πᾶς γὰρ ἀρχιερεὺς εἰς τὸ προσφέρειν δῶρά τε καὶ θυσίας καθίσταται ὅθεν ἀναγκαῖον ἔχειν τι καὶ τοῦτον προσενέγκῃ
4Now if He were on earth, He would not be a priest, since there are already [priests] to offer gifts according to [the] Law. 4εἰ μὲν οὖν ἦν ἐπὶ γῆς οὐδ’ ἂν ἦν ἱερεύς ὄντων τῶν προσφερόντων κατὰ νόμον τὰ δῶρα
5[They] serve at a copy and shadow of the heavenly [sanctuary]. That is why Moses was warned when he was about to build the tabernacle, “See to it that you make everything according to the pattern shown you on the mountain.” 5οἵτινες ὑποδείγματι καὶ σκιᾷ λατρεύουσιν τῶν ἐπουρανίων καθὼς κεχρημάτισται Μωϋσῆς μέλλων ἐπιτελεῖν τὴν σκηνήν Ὅρα γάρ φησίν Ποιήσεις πάντα κατὰ τὸν τύπον τὸν δειχθέντα σοι ἐν τῷ ὄρει
6Now, however, [Jesus] has received a much more excellent ministry, just as the covenant He mediates is better [and] is founded on better promises. 6Νυνὶ* δὲ διαφορωτέρας τέτυχεν λειτουργίας ὅσῳ καὶ κρείττονός ἐστιν διαθήκης μεσίτης ἥτις ἐπὶ κρείττοσιν ἐπαγγελίαις νενομοθέτηται
7For if that first [ covenant ] had been without fault, no place would have been sought for a second. 7εἰ γὰρ πρώτη ἐκείνη ἦν ἄμεμπτος οὐκ ἂν δευτέρας ἐζητεῖτο τόπος
8[But] [God] found fault with [the people] [and] said: “Behold, [the] days are coming, declares [the] Lord, [when] I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah. 8μεμφόμενος γὰρ αὐτοὺς λέγει Ἰδοὺ ἡμέραι ἔρχονται λέγει Κύριος καὶ συντελέσω ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον Ἰσραὴλ καὶ ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον Ἰούδα διαθήκην καινήν
9[It will] not be like the covenant I made with their fathers when I took them by the hand to lead them out of [the] land of Egypt, because they did not abide by My covenant, and I disregarded them, declares [the] Lord. 9οὐ κατὰ τὴν διαθήκην ἣν ἐποίησα τοῖς πατράσιν αὐτῶν ἐν ἡμέρᾳ ἐπιλαβομένου μου τῆς χειρὸς αὐτῶν ἐξαγαγεῖν αὐτοὺς ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου ὅτι αὐτοὶ οὐκ ἐνέμειναν ἐν τῇ διαθήκῃ μου κἀγὼ ἠμέλησα αὐτῶν λέγει Κύριος
10For this [is] the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares [the] Lord. I will put My laws in their minds, and inscribe them on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they will be My people. 10ὅτι αὕτη διαθήκη ἣν διαθήσομαι τῷ οἴκῳ Ἰσραὴλ μετὰ τὰς ἡμέρας ἐκείνας λέγει Κύριος διδοὺς νόμους μου εἰς τὴν διάνοιαν αὐτῶν καὶ ἐπὶ καρδίας αὐτῶν ἐπιγράψω αὐτούς καὶ ἔσομαι αὐτοῖς εἰς Θεόν καὶ αὐτοὶ ἔσονταί μοι εἰς λαόν
11No longer will each one teach his neighbor [or] his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ because they will all know Me, from [the] least of them to [the] greatest. 11καὶ οὐ μὴ διδάξωσιν ἕκαστος τὸν πολίτην αὐτοῦ καὶ ἕκαστος τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ λέγων Γνῶθι τὸν Κύριον ὅτι πάντες εἰδήσουσίν με ἀπὸ μικροῦ ἕως μεγάλου αὐτῶν
12For I will forgive their iniquities and will remember their sins no more.” 12ὅτι ἵλεως ἔσομαι ταῖς ἀδικίαις αὐτῶν καὶ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν αὐτῶν οὐ μὴ μνησθῶ ἔτι
13By speaking of a new [covenant], He has made the first one {obsolete}; and what is obsolete and aging will soon disappear. 13Ἐν τῷ λέγειν Καινὴν πεπαλαίωκεν τὴν πρώτην τὸ δὲ παλαιούμενον καὶ γηράσκον ἐγγὺς ἀφανισμοῦ
