1For the law having a shadow of the coming good things--not the very image of the matters, every year, by the same sacrifices that they offer continually, is never able to make perfect those coming near,
1For the law, being only a poor copy of the future good things, and not the true image of those things, is never able to make the people who come to the altar every year with the same offerings completely clean.
2since, would they not have ceased to be offered, because of those serving having no more conscience of sins, having once been purified?
2For if this had been possible, would there not have been an end of those offerings, because the worshippers would have been made completely clean and would have been no longer conscious of sins?
3but in those <FI>sacrifices<Fi> is a remembrance of sins every year,
3But year by year there is a memory of sins in those offerings.
4for it is impossible for blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.
4Because it is not possible for the blood of oxen and goats to take away sins.
5Wherefore, coming into the world, he saith, `Sacrifice and offering Thou didst not will, and a body Thou didst prepare for me,
5So that when he comes into the world, he says, You had no desire for offerings, but you made a body ready for me;
6in burnt-offerings, and concerning sin-offerings, Thou didst not delight,
6You had no joy in burned offerings or in offerings for sin.
7then I said, Lo, I come, (in a volume of the book it hath been written concerning me,) to do, O God, Thy will;'
7Then I said, See, I have come to do your pleasure, O God (as it is said of me in the roll of the book).
8saying above--`Sacrifice, and offering, and burnt-offerings, and concerning sin-offering Thou didst not will, nor delight in,' --which according to the law are offered--
8After saying, You had no desire for offerings, for burned offerings or offerings for sin (which are made by the law) and you had no pleasure in them,
9then he said, `Lo, I come to do, O God, Thy will;' he doth take away the first that the second he may establish;
9Then he said, See, I have come to do your pleasure. He took away the old order, so that he might put the new order in its place.
10in the which will we are having been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once,
10By that pleasure we have been made holy, by the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once and for ever.
11and every priest, indeed, hath stood daily serving, and the same sacrifices many times offering, that are never able to take away sins.
11And every priest takes his place at the altar day by day, doing what is necessary, and making again and again the same offerings which are never able to take away sins.
12And He, for sin one sacrifice having offered--to the end, did sit down on the right hand of God, --
12But when Jesus had made one offering for sins for ever, he took his place at the right hand of God;
13as to the rest, expecting till He may place his enemies <FI>as<Fi> his footstool,
13And has been waiting there from that time, till all who are against him are made a foot-rest for his feet.
14for by one offering he hath perfected to the end those sanctified;
14Because by one offering he has made complete for ever those who are made holy.
15and testify to us also doth the Holy Spirit, for after that He hath said before,
15And the Holy Spirit is a witness for us: for after he had said,
16`This <FI>is<Fi> the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, giving My laws on their hearts, and upon their minds I will write them,'
16This is the agreement which I will make with them after those days, says the Lord; I will put my laws in their hearts, writing them in their minds; he said,
17and `their sins and their lawlessness I will remember no more;'
17And I will keep no more memory of their sins and of their evil-doings.
18and where forgiveness of these <FI>is<Fi> , there is no more offering for sin.
18Now where there is forgiveness of these, there is no more offering for sin.
19Having, therefore, brethren, boldness for the entrance into the holy places, in the blood of Jesus,
19So then, my brothers, being able to go into the holy place without fear, because of the blood of Jesus,
20which way he did initiate for us--new and living, through the vail, that is, his flesh--
20By the new and living way which he made open for us through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;
22may we draw near with a true heart, in full assurance of faith, having the hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and having the body bathed with pure water;
22Let us go in with true hearts, in certain faith, having our hearts made free from the sense of sin and our bodies washed with clean water:
23may we hold fast the unwavering profession of the hope, (for faithful <FI>is<Fi> He who did promise),
23Let us keep the witness of our hope strong and unshaking, for he is true who has given his word:
24and may we consider one another to provoke to love and to good works,
24And let us be moving one another at all times to love and good works;
25not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as a custom of certain <FI>is<Fi> , but exhorting, and so much the more as ye see the day coming nigh.
25Not giving up our meetings, as is the way of some, but keeping one another strong in faith; and all the more because you see the day coming near.
26For we--wilfully sinning after the receiving the full knowledge of the truth--no more for sins doth there remain a sacrifice,
26For if we do evil on purpose after we have had the knowledge of what is true, there is no more offering for sins,
27but a certain fearful looking for of judgment, and fiery zeal, about to devour the opposers;
27But only a great fear of being judged, and of the fire of wrath which will be the destruction of the haters of God.
28any one who did set at nought a law of Moses, apart from mercies, by two or three witnesses, doth die,
28A man who has gone against the law of Moses is put to death without pity on the word of two or three witnesses:
29of how much sorer punishment shall he be counted worthy who the Son of God did trample on, and the blood of the covenant did count a common thing, in which he was sanctified, and to the Spirit of the grace did despite?
29But will not the man by whom the Son of God has been crushed under foot, and the blood of the agreement with which he was washed clean has been taken as an unholy thing, and who has had no respect for the Spirit of grace, be judged bad enough for a very much worse punishment?
30for we have known Him who is saying, `Vengeance <FI>is<Fi> Mine, I will recompense, saith the Lord;' and again, `The Lord shall judge His people;' --
30For we have had experience of him who says, Punishment is mine, I will give reward. And again, The Lord will be judge of his people.
31fearful <FI>is<Fi> the falling into the hands of a living God.
31We may well go in fear of falling into the hands of the living God.
32And call to your remembrance the former days, in which, having been enlightened, ye did endure much conflict of sufferings,
32But give thought to the days after you had seen the light, when you went through a great war of troubles;
33partly both with reproaches and tribulations being made spectacles, and partly having become partners of those so living,
33In part, in being attacked by angry words and cruel acts, before the eyes of everyone, and in part, in being united with those who were attacked in this way.
34for also with my bonds ye sympathised, and the robbery of your goods with joy ye did receive, knowing that ye have in yourselves a better substance in the heavens, and an enduring one.
34For you had pity on those who were in prison, and had joy in the loss of your property, in the knowledge that you still had a better property and one which you would keep for ever.
35Ye may not cast away, then, your boldness, which hath great recompense of reward,
35So do not give up your hope which will be greatly rewarded.
36for of patience ye have need, that the will of God having done, ye may receive the promise,
36For, having done what was right in God's eyes, you have need of waiting before his word has effect for you.
37for yet a very very little, He who is coming will come, and will not tarry;
37In a very little time he who is coming will come; he will not be slow.
