    2 For the first Tent was made ready, having in it the vessels for the lights and the table and the ordering of the bread; and this is named the holy place.

    3 And inside the second veil was the place which is named the Holy of holies;

    4 Having a vessel of gold in it for burning perfumes, and the ark of the agreement, which was covered with gold and which had in it a pot made of gold for the manna, and Aaron's rod which put out buds, and the stones with the writing of the agreement;

    5 And over it were the winged ones of glory with their wings covering the mercy-seat; about which it is not possible now to say anything in detail.

    6 Now while these things were in existence, the priests went into the first Tent at all times, for prayer and the making of offerings.

    7 But only the high priest went into the second, once a year, not without making an offering of blood for himself and for the errors of the people:

    8 The Holy Spirit witnessing by this that the way into the holy place had not at that time been made open, while the first Tent was still in being;

    3 Now every high priest is given authority to take to God the things which are given and to make offerings; so that it is necessary for this man, like them, to have something for an offering.

    4 If he had been on earth he would not have been a priest at all, because there are other priests who make the offerings ordered by the law;

    5 Being servants of that which is a copy and an image of the things in heaven, as Moses, when he was about to make the Tent, had special orders from God: for, See, he said, that you make everything like the design which you saw in the mountain.

    6 But now his position as priest is higher. because through him God has made a better agreement with man, based on the giving of better things.

    7 For if that first agreement had been as good as possible, there would have been no place for a second.
