1Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens;
1Aga peaasi selles, millest siin räägitakse, on see: meil on selline ülempreester, kes on istunud Ausuuruse trooni paremale poole taevas,
2A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man.
2kes talitab pühamus ja tõelises lepingutelgis, mida ei ole püstitanud inimene, vaid Issand.
3For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is of necessity that this man have somewhat also to offer.
3Iga ülempreester seatakse ju ohverdama ande ja ohvreid; seepärast on tingimata vaja, et temalgi oleks midagi ohverdada.
4For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law:
4Kui ta nüüd oleks maa peal, siis ta ei olekski preester, sest siin on juba olemas neid, kes ohverdavad ande Seaduse järgi
5Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount.
5ja teenivad pühamus, mis on ainult taevase kuju ja vari. Moosest ju juhendati, kui ta hakkas valmistama telki: 'Vaata, et sa teed kõik selle kuju järgi, mida sulle näidati mäel!'
6But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.
6Nüüd on aga Jeesus saanud seda ülevama ameti, mida parema lepingu vahemees ta on, mis on seadustatud paremate tõotuste alusel.
7For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.
7Sest kui esimene leping oleks olnud laitmatu, siis ei oleks otsitud kohta teisele.
8For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:
8Kuid tema ütleb neid laites: 'Vaata, päevad tulevad, ütleb Issand, mil ma sõlmin Iisraeli kojaga ja Juuda kojaga uue lepingu,
9Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.
9mitte selle lepingu sarnase, mille ma tegin nende esiisadega tol päeval, kui ma nad kättpidi võtsin, et neid viia välja Egiptusemaalt; aga et nad ei jäänud minu lepingusse, siis minagi ei hoolinud neist, ütleb Issand.
10For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
10Sest see leping, mille ma teen Iisraeli kojaga pärast neid päevi, ütleb Issand, on niisugune: ma annan oma seadused nende mõistusesse ja kirjutan need nende südamesse ja ma olen neile Jumalaks ja nemad saavad mulle rahvaks.
11And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.
11Ja kunagi enam ei õpeta keegi oma kaaskodanikku ega keegi oma venda, öeldes: 'Tunne Issandat!', sest kõik tunnevad mind, nende pisikestest kuni suurteni,
12For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.
12sest ma olen armuline nende ülekohtuste tegude vastu ja ei tuleta enam meelde nende patte.'
13In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.
13Nimetades uut on ta esimese tunnistanud vananenuks. Aga mis vananeb ja raugastub, see on hääbumise äärel.
