¹Then verily the first covenant had also ordinances of divine service, and a worldly sanctuary.

¹Esimesel lepingul olid oma teenistuse nõuded ning ka maine pühamu.

²For there was a tabernacle made; the first, wherein was the candlestick, and the table, and the shewbread; which is called the sanctuary.

²Oli valmistatud eestelk, milles olid lambijalg ja laud ja ohvrileivad; seda nimetatakse 'pühaks paigaks'.

³And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of all;

³Ent teise vahevaiba taga oli telk, mida nimetatakse 'kõige pühamaks paigaks',

⁴Which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron's rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant;

⁴kus oli kuldne suitsutusaltar ja lepingulaegas, mis oli üleni kullaga kaetud. Selles olid kuldkruus mannaga ja Aaroni kepp, mis oli õitsenud, ja lepingulauad;

⁵And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercyseat; of which we cannot now speak particularly.

⁵selle kohal aga kirkuse keerubid lepingukaant varjamas. Neist ei tule praegu üksikasjaliselt juttu.

⁶Now when these things were thus ordained, the priests went always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service of God.

⁶Kui need asjad nüüd nõnda on seatud, siis lähevad preestrid alati küll eestelki ning toimetavad jumalateenistust,

⁷But into the second went the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for the errors of the people:

⁷aga ainult ühe korra aastas läheb ülempreester teise telki, ja mitte ilma vereta, mille ta ohverdab iseenda ja rahva poolt teadmatult tehtud pattude eest.

⁸The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet standing:

⁸Sellega teatab Püha Vaim, et tee kõige pühamasse paika ei ole veel ilmsiks saanud, niikaua kui eestelk püsib.

⁹Which was a figure for the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience;

⁹Seda tuleb mõista viitena käesoleva aja kohta, et annid ja ohvrid, mida endisel kombel ohverdatakse, ei suuda teha jumalateenijat täiuslikuks südametunnistuse poolest,

¹⁰Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation.

¹⁰vaid on seotud toitude ja jookide ja mitmesuguste pesemistega - need on nõuded ihu kohta, mis kehtivad uue korra ajani.

¹¹But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building;

¹¹Aga kui Kristus tuli tulevaste hüvede ülempreestrina, suurema ja täiuslikuma telgiga, mis ei ole kätega tehtud, see tähendab ei ole osa sellest loomisest, -

¹²Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.

¹²siis ta läks sisse mitte sikkude ja vasikate verega, vaid iseenda verega, minnes ühe korra kõige pühamasse paika, saavutas ta meile igavese lunastuse.

¹³For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh:

¹³Sest kui sikkude ja härgade veri ja lehma tuhk, mida piserdatakse rüvetunute peale, pühitseb liha puhtuseks,

¹⁴How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

¹⁴kui palju enam siis Kristuse veri. Kristus, kes igavese Vaimu läbi ohverdas iseenese laitmatuna Jumalale, puhastab meie südametunnistuse surnud tegudest teenima elavat Jumalat.

¹⁵And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.

¹⁵Seepärast ongi tema uue lepingu vahemees selleks, et kutsutud - kui tema surm oli saanud lunastuseks esimese lepingu aegsetest üleastumistest - saaksid kätte igavese pärandi tõotuse.

¹⁶For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.

¹⁶Kus on testamentlik leping, seal tuleb ju tingimata esitada tõendus testamenditegija surmast,

¹⁷For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.

¹⁷sest testament hakkab kehtima pärast surma ega jõustu iialgi, kui testamenditegija on elus.

¹⁸Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood.

¹⁸Seetõttu ei ole ka esimest lepingut sisse pühitsetud ilma vereta.

¹⁹For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people,

¹⁹Sest kui Mooses oli kõik Seaduse käsud kogu rahvale ette lugenud, siis ta võttis vasikate ja sikkude vere koos vee ja erepunase villa ja iisopiga ning piserdas sellega nii seda raamatut kui kogu rahvast,

²⁰Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you.

²⁰öeldes: 'See on selle lepingu veri, mida Jumal on teil käskinud pidada.'

²¹Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry.

²¹Ja nõndasamuti ta piserdas verega ka telki ja kõiki jumalateenistusriistu.

²²And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.

²²Moosese Seaduse järgi puhastatakse peaaegu kõik asjad vere kaudu, ja ilma vere valamiseta ei ole andeksandmist.

²³It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.

²³Nii on siis paratamatu, et taevaste asjade kujud tuleb sel kombel puhastada, taevasi asju endid aga puhastatakse neist paremate ohvritega.

²⁴For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:

²⁴Kristus ei läinud ju kätega tehtud kõige pühamasse paika kui tõelise paiga eelkujusse, vaid taevasse enesesse, esindama meid nüüd Jumala palge ees.

²⁵Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others;

²⁵Ta ei läinud sinna selleks, et ohverdada ennast mitu korda, nõnda nagu ülempreester igal aastal läheb võõra verega kõige pühamasse paika,

²⁶For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

²⁶kuna muidu oleks ta pidanud kannatama mitu korda maailma rajamisest peale. Kuid nüüd on ta üheks korraks aegade lõpul ilmunud, et ennast ohvriks tuues kõrvaldada pattu.

²⁷And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:

²⁷Ja otsekui inimestele on seatud üks kord surra, pärast seda on aga kohus,

²⁸So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.

²⁸nõnda ka Kristus, üks kord juba ohverdatud, et ära kanda paljude patud, ilmub teist korda mitte enam patu pärast, vaid päästma neid, kes teda ootavad.
