Now{G1161} in{G1909} the things which we are saying{G3004} the chief point{G2774} [is this]: We have{G2192} such{G5108} a high priest,{G749} who{G3739} sat{G2523} down on{G1722} the right hand{G1188} of the throne{G2362} of the Majesty{G3172} in{G1722} the heavens,{G3772}

a minister{G3011} of the sanctuary,{G39} and{G2532} of the{G4633} true{G228} tabernacle,{G4633} which{G3739} the Lord{G2962} pitched,{G4078} {G2532} not{G3756} man.{G444}

For{G1063} every{G3956} high priest{G749} is appointed{G2525} to{G1519} offer{G4374} both{G5037} gifts{G1435} and{G2532} sacrifices:{G2378} wherefore{G3606} it is necessary{G316} that{G3739} this [high priest]{G5126} also{G2532} have{G2192} somewhat{G5100} to offer.{G4374}

Now{G1063} if{G1487} {G3303} he were{G2258} on{G1909} earth,{G1093} he would{G2258} not{G3761} {G302} be{G2258} a priest{G2409} at all, seeing there are{G5607} those{G2409} who offer{G4374} the gifts{G1435} according{G2596} to the law;{G3551}

who{G3748} serve{G3000} [that which is] a copy{G5262} and{G2532} shadow{G4639} of the heavenly things,{G2032} even as{G2531} Moses{G3475} is warned [of God]{G5537} when he is about{G3195} to make{G2005} the tabernacle:{G4633} for,{G1063} See,{G3708} saith he,{G5346} that thou make{G4160} all things{G3956} according to{G2596} the pattern{G5179} that was showed{G1166} thee{G4671} in{G1722} the mount.{G3735}

But{G1161} now{G3570} hath he obtained a{G5177} ministry{G3009} the more excellent,{G1313} by so much{G3745} as he is{G2076} also{G2532} the mediator{G3316} of a better{G2909} covenant,{G1242} which{G3748} hath been enacted{G3549} upon{G1909} better{G2909} promises.{G1860}

For{G1063} if{G1487} that{G1565} first{G4413} [covenant] had been{G2258} faultless,{G273} then would no{G3756} {G302} place{G5117} have been sought{G2212} for a second.{G1208}

For{G1063} finding fault{G3201} with them,{G846} he saith,{G3004} Behold,{G2400} the days{G2250} come,{G2064} saith{G3004} the Lord,{G2962} That{G2532} I will make{G4931} a{G1242} new{G2537} covenant{G1242} with{G1909} the house{G3624} of Israel{G2474} and{G2532} with{G1909} the house{G3624} of Judah;{G2448}

Not{G3756} according to{G2596} the covenant{G1242} that{G3739} I made{G4160} with{G3962} their{G846} fathers{G3962} In{G1722} the day{G2250} that{G1949} I{G3450} took{G1949} them{G846} by the hand{G5495} to lead{G1806} them{G846} forth out{G1806} of{G1537} the land{G1093} of Egypt;{G125} For{G3754} they{G846} continued{G1696} not{G3756} in{G1722} my{G3450} covenant,{G1242} And I{G2504} regarded{G272} them{G846} not,{G272} saith{G3004} the Lord.{G2962}

For{G3754} this{G3778} is the covenant{G1242} that{G3739} I will make{G1303} with the house{G3624} of Israel{G2474} After{G3326} those{G1565} days,{G2250} saith{G3004} the Lord;{G2962} I will{G1924} put{G1325} my{G3450} laws{G3551} into{G1519} their{G846} mind,{G1271} And{G2532} on{G1909} their{G846} heart{G2588} also will I write{G1924} them:{G846} And{G2532} I will be{G2071} to them{G846} {G1519} a God,{G2316} And{G2532} they{G846} shall be{G2071} to me{G3427} {G1519} a people:{G2992}

And{G2532} they shall{G1321} not{G3756} {G3361} teach{G1321} every man{G1538} his{G846} fellow-citizen,{G4139} And{G2532} every man{G1538} his{G846} brother,{G80} saying,{G3004} Know{G1097} the Lord:{G2962} For{G3754} all{G3956} shall know{G1492} me,{G3165} From{G575} the least{G3398} to{G2193} the greatest{G846} of them.{G846}

For{G3754} I will be{G2071} merciful{G2436} to{G93} their{G846} iniquities,{G458} And{G2532} their{G846} sins{G266} will I{G3361} remember{G3415} no{G3756} {G3361} more.{G2089}

In{G1722} that he saith,{G3004} A new{G2537} [covenant] he hath made{G3822} the first{G4413} old.{G3822} But{G1161} that which is becoming old{G3822} and{G2532} waxeth aged{G1095} is nigh{G1451} unto vanishing away.{G854}
