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, having a shadow of the coming good things, not the image itself of the things, can never, by the same sacrifices which they offer continually yearly, perfect those who approach.

2since, would they not have ceased to be offered, because of those serving having no more conscience of sins, having once been purified?

2Since, would they not indeed have ceased being offered, on account of the worshippers once purged having no longer any conscience of sins?

3but in those <FI>sacrifices<Fi> is a remembrance of sins every year,

3But in these [there is] a calling to mind of sins yearly.

4for it is impossible for blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.

4For blood of bulls and goats [is] incapable of taking away sins.

5Wherefore, coming into the world, he saith, `Sacrifice and offering Thou didst not will, and a body Thou didst prepare for me,

5Wherefore coming into the world he says, Sacrifice and offering thou willedst not; but thou hast prepared me a body.

6in burnt-offerings, and concerning sin-offerings, Thou didst not delight,

6Thou tookest no pleasure in burnt-offerings and sacrifices 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, Lo, I come (in [the] roll of the book it is written of me) to do, OGod, thy will.

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--

8Above, saying Sacrifices and offerings and burnt-offerings and sacrifices for sin thou willedst not, neither tookest pleasure in (which are offered according to the law);

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, Lo, I come to do thy will. He takes away the first that he may establish the second;

10in the which will we are having been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once,

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

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 stands daily ministering, and offering often the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.

12And He, for sin one sacrifice having offered--to the end, did sit down on the right hand of God, --

12But he, having offered one sacrifice for sins, sat down in perpetuity at [the] right hand ofGod,

13as to the rest, expecting till He may place his enemies <FI>as<Fi> his footstool,

13waiting from henceforth until his enemies be set [for the] footstool of his feet.

14for by one offering he hath perfected to the end those sanctified;

14For by one offering he has perfected in perpetuity the sanctified.

15and testify to us also doth the Holy Spirit, for after that He hath said before,

15And the Holy Spirit also bears us witness [of it]; for after what was 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 covenant which I will establish towards them after those days, saith [the] Lord: Giving my laws into their hearts, I will write them also in their understandings;

17and `their sins and their lawlessness I will remember no more;'

17and their sins and their lawlessnesses I will never remember any more.

18and where forgiveness of these <FI>is<Fi> , there is no more offering for sin.

18But where there [is] remission of these, [there is] no longer a sacrifice for sin.

19Having, therefore, brethren, boldness for the entrance into the holy places, in the blood of Jesus,

19Having therefore, brethren, boldness for entering into the [holy of] holies by the blood of Jesus,

20which way he did initiate for us--new and living, through the vail, that is, his flesh--

20the new and living way which he has dedicated for us through the veil, that is, his flesh,

21and a high priest over the house of God,

21and [having] a great priest over the house ofGod,

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 approach with a true heart, in full assurance of faith, sprinkled as to our hearts from a wicked conscience, and washed as to our body with pure water.

23may we hold fast the unwavering profession of the hope, (for faithful <FI>is<Fi> He who did promise),

23Let us hold fast the confession of the hope unwavering, (for he [is] faithful who has promised;)

24and may we consider one another to provoke to love and to good works,

24and let us consider one another for provoking 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 forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the custom [is] with some; but encouraging [one another], and by so much the more as ye see the day drawing near.

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?

29of how much worse punishment, think ye, shall he be judged worthy who has trodden under foot the Son ofGod, and esteemed the blood of the covenant, whereby he has been sanctified, common, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?

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 know him that said, To me [belongs] vengeance; I will recompense, saith the Lord: and again, The Lord shall judge his people.

31fearful <FI>is<Fi> the falling into the hands of a living God.

31[It is] a fearful thing falling into [the] hands of [the] livingGod.

32And call to your remembrance the former days, in which, having been enlightened, ye did endure much conflict of sufferings,

32But call to mind the earlier days in which, having been enlightened, ye endured much conflict of sufferings;

33partly both with reproaches and tribulations being made spectacles, and partly having become partners of those so living,

33on the one hand, when ye were made a spectacle both in reproaches and afflictions; and on the other, when ye became partakers with those who were passing through them.

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 ye both sympathised with prisoners and accepted with joy the plunder of your goods, knowing that ye have for yourselves a better substance, and an abiding one.

35Ye may not cast away, then, your boldness, which hath great recompense of reward,

35Cast not away therefore your confidence, which has great recompense.

36for of patience ye have need, that the will of God having done, ye may receive the promise,

36For ye have need of endurance in order that, having done the will ofGod, ye may receive the promise.

37for yet a very very little, He who is coming will come, and will not tarry;

37For yet a very little while he that comes will come, and will not delay.

38and `the righteous by faith shall live,' and `if he may draw back, My soul hath no pleasure in him,'

38But the just shall live by faith; and, if he draw back, my soul does not take pleasure in him.

39and we are not of those drawing back to destruction, but of those believing to a preserving of soul.

39But we are not drawers back to perdition, but of faith to saving [the] soul.
