1Now the first covenant had regulations for worship and also an earthly sanctuary.
“Then indeed even the first covenant had ordinances of divine service and the earthly sanctuary.”
“Then verily the first covenant had also ordinances of divine service and a worldly sanctuary.”
“Then verily the first covenant had also ordinances of divine service and a worldly sanctuary.”
“Then verily the first covenant had also ordinances of divine service and a worldly sanctuary.”
“Then verily the first covenant had also ordinances of divine service and a worldly sanctuary,”
2A tabernacle was prepared. In its first room were the lampstand, the table, and the consecrated bread. This was called the Holy Place.
“For there was a tabernacle made, the first wherein was the candlestick and the table and the showbread, which is called the sanctuary”
“For a tabernacle was prepared the first part in which was the lampstand the table and the showbread which is called the sanctuary”
“For there was a tabernacle made, the first, wherein was the candlestick and the table and the showbread, which is called the sanctuary.”
“For there was a tabernacle made, the first wherein was the candlestick and the table and the showbread which is called the sanctuary.”
“For a tabernacle was prepared, the first part in which was the lampstand, the table, and the showbread, which is called the sanctuary.”
“For there was a tabernacle made the first wherein was the candlestick and the table and the showbread which is called the sanctuary”
3Behind the second curtain was a room called the Most Holy Place,
“and behind the second veil the part of the tabernacle which is called the holiest of all”
“And after the second veil, the tabernacle, which is called the holiest of all,”
“And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the holiest of all,”
“And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the holiest of all,”
“And after the second veil the tabernacle which is called the holiest of all.”
“and after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the holiest of all,”
4containing the golden altar of incense and the gold-covered ark of the covenant. Inside the ark were the gold jar of manna, Aaron's staff that had budded, and the stone tablets of the covenant.
“having a golden altar of incense and the ark of the covenant covered on all sides with gold in which was a golden jar holding the manna and Aaron's rod which budded and the tables of the covenant”
“which had the golden censer and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron's rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant.”
“which had the golden censer and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron's rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant,”
“which had the golden censer and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold wherein was the golden pot that had manna and Aaron's rod that budded and the tables of the covenant.”
“which had the golden censer and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had manna and Aaron's rod that budded and the tables of the covenant.”
“which had the golden censer and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold wherein was the golden pot that had manna and Aaron's rod that budded. And the tables of the covenant.”
5Above the ark were the cherubim of glory, overshadowing the mercy seat. But we cannot discuss these things in detail now.
“above it were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat. Of these things we cannot now speak in detail.”
“above it were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat. But of these things we cannot now speak in detail.”
“And above it were the cherubim of glory, overshadowing the mercy seat. And of these things, we can't now speak in detail.”
6When everything had been prepared in this way, the priests entered regularly into the first room to perform their sacred duties.
“Now when these things were thus ordained, the priest went always into the first tabernacle accomplishing the service of God.”
“Now, when these things had been thus prepared, the priests always went into the first part of the tabernacle performing the services.”
“Now when these things were thus ordained, the priests went always into the first tabernacle accomplishing the service of God”
“Now when these things were thus ordained, the priest went always into the first tabernacle accomplishing the service of God.”
“Now, when these things were thus ordained, the priests went always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service of God.”
“Now when these things were thus ordained, the priest went always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service of God.”
7But only the high priest entered the second room, and then only once a year, and never without blood, which he offered for himself and for the sins the people had committed in ignorance.
“But into the second only the high priest enters once a year not without taking blood which he offers for himself and for the sins of the people committed in ignorance.”
“but into the second went the high priest alone once every year not without blood which he offered for himself and for the errors of the people”
“But into the second part, the high priest went alone once a year, not without blood which he offered for himself and for the people's sins committed in ignorance.”
“But into the second went the high priest alone, once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself and for the errors of the people,”
“But into the second went the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself and for the errors of the people.”
“But into the second went the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself and for the errors of the people.”
8By this arrangement the Holy Spirit was showing that the way into the Most Holy Place had not yet been disclosed as long as the first tabernacle was still standing.
“The holy spirit is signifying this that the way into the holy place has not yet been disclosed while the outer tabernacle is still standing”
“The Holy Spirit indicating this, that the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest while the first tabernacle was still standing.”
“The Holy Spirit is signifying this, that the way into the holy place has not yet been disclosed, while the outer tabernacle is still standing.”
“The Holy Ghost, this signifying that the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet standing,”
“the Holy Spirit indicating this, that the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest while the first tabernacle was still standing.”
“The holy ghost this signifying that the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest while as the first tabernacle was yet standing.”
9It is an illustration for the present time, because the gifts and sacrifices being offered were unable to cleanse the conscience of the worshiper.
“It was symbolic for the present time in which both gifts and sacrifices are offered, which cannot make him who performed the service perfect in regard to the conscience.”
“which was a figure for the time then present, in which there were offered both gifts and sacrifices that could not make him that did the service perfect as pertaining to the conscience.”
“It was symbolic for the present time in which both gifts and sacrifices are offered, which cannot make him who performed the service perfect in regard to the conscience.”
“Which was a figure for the time then present in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices that could not make him that did the service perfect as pertaining to the conscience.”
“which was a figure for the time then present, In which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, That could not make him that did the service perfect as pertaining to the conscience.”
“which was a figure, that is the tabernacle, for the time then present in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices that could not make him that did the service perfect as pertaining to the conscience,”
10They consist only in food and drink and special washings—external regulations imposed until the time of reform.
“since they relate only to food and drink and various washings regulations for the body imposed until a time of reformation.”
“which stood only in meats and drinks and divers, washings and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation,”
“Concerned only with foods and drinks, various washings and fleshly ordinances imposed until the time of the Reformation.”
“Which stood only in meats and drinks and divers washings and carnal ordinances imposed on them until the time of reformation”
“concerned only with foods and drinks and various washings and fleshly ordinances imposed until the time of Reformation,”
“which stood only in meats and drinks and in diverse washings and carnal ordinances imposed on them until the time of”
11But when Christ came as high priest of the good things that have come, He went through the greater and more perfect tabernacle that is not made by hands and is not a part of this creation.
“but Christ came as high priest of the good things to come with the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, that is, not of this creation.”
“But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things to come, he entered through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of his creation,”
“but Christ came as high priest of the good things to come with the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, that is, not of this creation.”
“but when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and more perfect tent, not made with human hands, that is not of this creation,”
“but Christ came as high priest of the good things to come With the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands. That is not of this creation.”
“But Christ, being come and high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building,”
12He did not enter by the blood of goats and calves, but He entered the Most Holy Place once for all by His own blood, thus securing eternal redemption.
“Neither by the blood of goats and calves. But by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place having obtained eternal redemption for us”
“and not through the blood of goats and calves but through his own blood he entered the holy place once for all having obtained eternal redemption.”
“Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.”
“Neither by the blood of goats and calves. But by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place. Having obtained eternal redemption for us”
“He entered once for all into the holy places. Not by means of the blood of goats and calves. But by means of his own blood thus securing an eternal redemption.”
“neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place having obtained eternal redemption for us.”
13For if the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkled on those who are ceremonially unclean sanctify them so that their bodies are clean,
“For if the blood of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling the unclean sanctifies for the purifying of the flesh,”
“For if the blood of bulls and of goats and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean sanctifyeth to the purifying of the flesh.”
“For if the blood of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling the unclean sanctifies for the purifying of the flesh,”
“For if the blood of bulls, and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer, sprinkling the unclean, sanctifies to the purifying of the flesh,”
“For if the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a red heifer, sprinkling those who have been defiled, sanctify for the cleansing of the flesh,”
“For if the blood of bulls and of goats and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean sanctifies to the purifying of the flesh,”
14how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself unblemished to God, purify our consciences from works of death, so that we may serve the living God!
“How much more? Shall the blood of Christ who through the eternal spirit Offered himself without spot to God purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God”
“How much more shall the blood of Christ Who through the eternal spirit offered himself without spot to God. Purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God.”
“how much more will the blood of christ who through the eternal spirit offered himself without blemish to god cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living god.”
“how much more shall the blood of Christ who through the eternal spirit offered himself without spot to God cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?”
“how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?”
“How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?”
15Therefore Christ is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, now that He has died to redeem them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant.
“And for this reason, he is the mediator of the new covenant by means of death for the redemption of the transgression under the first covenant that those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.”
“and for this reason he is the mediator of the new covenant. By means of death for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant. That those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.”
“therefore, He is the mediator. Hebrews 9 .15 of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance since a death has occurred that redeems them from the transgressions committed under the…”
“And for this cause he is the mediator of the new covenant, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal…”
“And for this reason, verse 15 tells us, He is the mediator of the new covenant by means of death for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, that those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal…”
“For this cause He the Lord's Eagle Is the mediator of the new testament That by means of death For the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament They which are caught might receive the promise of…”
16In the case of a will, it is necessary to establish the death of the one who made it,
“For where a covenant is there must of necessity be the death of the one who made it.”
“For where there is a testament, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.”
“For where a covenant is, there must of necessity be the death of the one who made it.”
“For where a testament is there must also of necessity be the death of the testator”
“For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.”
“For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.”
17because a will does not take effect until the one who made it has died; it cannot be executed while he is still alive.
“For a testament is of force after men are dead. Otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.”
“For a covenant is valid only when men are dead for it is never in force while the one who made it lives.”
“For a testament is in force after men are dead since it has no power at all while the testator lives.”
“For a testament is in force after men are dead since it has no power at all while the testator leaves”
“For a testament is a force after men are dead. Otherwise, it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.”
“for a testament is enforced after men are dead otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.”
18That is why even the first covenant was not put into effect without blood.
“Therefore even the first covenant was not inaugurated without blood.”
“Whereupon neither the First Testament was dedicated without blood.”
“Therefore not even the first covenant was dedicated without blood.”
“whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood.”
“Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood.”
“therefore. Not even the first covenant was dedicated without blood.”
19For when Moses had proclaimed every commandment of the law to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, along with water, scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled the scroll and all the people,
“For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats with water and scarlet wool and hyssop and he sprinkled both the book and all the people”
“For when every commandment had been spoken by moses to all the people according to the law he took the blood of the calves and the goats with water and scarlet wool and hyssop and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people”
“For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people, according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats with water and scarlet wool and hyssop and sprinkled both the book and all the people,”
“For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and goats, with water, scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people,”
“For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats with water and scarlet wool and hyssop and sprinkled both the book and all the people,”
“For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats with water and scarlet wool and hyssop and sprinkled both the book and all the people”
20saying, "This is the blood of the covenant, which God has commanded you to keep."
“saying, This is the blood of the Testament which God hath enjoined unto you.”
“saying this is the blood of the covenant which God has commanded you.”
“saying, this is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you.”
“saying this is the blood of the covenant Which God has commanded you.”
“saying, this is the blood of the covenant which God has commanded you.”
“saying this is the blood of the Testament which God hath enjoined unto”
21In the same way, he sprinkled with blood the tabernacle and all the vessels used in worship.
“And in the same way he sprinkled both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry with the blood.”
“Then likewise he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry.”
“Moreover, he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle and all of the vessels of the ministry.”
“Then likewise, he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry.”
“Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry.”
“Moreover, he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry.”
22According to the law, in fact, nearly everything must be purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.
“And according to the law, almost all things are purified with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no remission.”
“and almost all things are by the law purged with blood and without shedding of blood is no remission.”
“And almost all things are by the law purged with blood, and without shedding of blood is no remission.”
“and almost all things. Are by the law purged with blood. And without shedding of blood. Is no remission.”
“and almost all things are by the law purged with blood, and without shedding of blood is no remission.”
“And almost all things are by the law purged with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no remission.”
23So it was necessary for the copies of the heavenly things to be purified with these sacrifices, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
“It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these. But the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.”
“Therefore it was necessary that the copies of the things in the heavens should be purified with these, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.”
“It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these. But the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.”
“It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these, but that the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.”
“It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these,”
“Therefore, it was necessary that the copies of the things in the heavens should be purified with these, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.”
24For Christ did not enter a man-made copy of the true sanctuary, but He entered heaven itself, now to appear on our behalf in the presence of God.
“For christ did not enter a holy place made with hands a mere copy of the true one but into heaven itself now to appear in the presence of god for us.”
“For Christ has not entered the holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true, but into heaven itself now to appear in the presence of God for us.”
“For Christ is not entered into the holy place made with hands, which are the figures of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us.”
“For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands which are the figures of the true but into heaven itself now to appear in the presence of God for us.”
“for Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands. Which are the figures of the true? But into heaven itself. Now to appear in the presence of God for us”
“for Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true, but into heaven itself now to appear in the presence of God for us,”
25Nor did He enter heaven to offer Himself again and again, as the high priest enters the Most Holy Place every year with blood that is not his own.
“Nor yet that he should offer himself often as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others.”
“Not that he should offer himself often as the high priest enters the most holy place every year with blood of another.”
“Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the High Priest entered into the holy place every year with blood of others,”
“Nor yet that he should offer himself often as the high priest entered into the holy place every year with the blood of others.”
“Nor yet that he should offer himself often as the high priest entered into the holy place every year with blood of others.”
“Not that he should offer himself often as the high priest enters the most holy place every year with blood of another.”
26Otherwise, Christ would have had to suffer repeatedly since the foundation of the world. But now He has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to do away with sin by the sacrifice of Himself.
“For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world. But now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.”
“He then would have had to suffer often since the foundation of the world. But now, once at the end of the ages, he has appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.”
“For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself”
“For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world. But now, once in the end of the world, hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.”
“Then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world, but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.”
“For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world. But now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.”
27Just as man is appointed to die once, and after that to face judgment,
“And as it is appointed unto man once to die, but after this the judgment.”
“and as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment.”
“and As it is appointed unto men once to die but after this the judgment”
“And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment,”
“And Just as it is appointed for man to die once and after that comes judgment.”
“And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this, the judgment.”
28so also Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many; and He will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who eagerly await Him.
“So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.”
“so Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many and Unto them that look for him. Shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.”
“so Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for him, he will appear a second time, apart from sin for salvation.”
“so Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.”
“So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many, and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.”
“So Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time apart from sin for salvation.”
