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;

¹Bet galvenais tanī, kas pārrunājams, ir tas, ka mums tāds augstais priesteris, kas debesīs nosēdies Majestātes troņa labajā pusē,

²A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man.

²Būdams svētnīcas un īstās telts kalpotājs. To uzcēlis Kungs, bet ne cilvēks.

³For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is of necessity that this man have somewhat also to offer.

³Jo katrs augstais priesteris tiek iecelts dāvanu un upuru nešanai, kāpēc nepieciešami, ka Viņam būtu kaut kas, ko upurēt.

⁴For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law:

⁴Ja Viņš būtu virs zemes, Viņš nebūtu priesteris, tāpēc ka šeit ir tādi, kas upurē dāvanas saskaņā ar bauslību,

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.

⁵Kas kalpo tā attēlam un ēnai, kas debesīs. Arī Mozum bija norādīts, kad viņš taisīja telti: Lūk, (tā bija teikts) padari visu pēc parauga, kas tev kalnā parādīts!

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.

⁶Bet tagad Viņam piešķirtā kalpošana labāka tik, par cik labāka derība, kuras starpnieks Viņš ir, jo tā dibināta ar labākiem solījumiem.

⁷For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.

⁷Jo ja pirmā būtu bijusi bez vainas, tad nemeklētu vietu otrai.

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:

⁸Un tos peldams, Viņš saka: Lūk, nāk dienas, saka Kungs, un es nodibināšu jaunu derību ar Izraēļa namu un ar Jūdas namu.

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.

⁹Ne tādu derību, kādu nodibināju ar viņu tēviem tanī dienā, kad satvēru viņu roku, lai izvestu tos no Ēģiptes zemes, jo viņi paši nav palikuši manā derībā, un es viņus atmetu, saka Kungs.

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:

¹⁰Bet šī ir derība, ko es nodibināšu ar Izraēļa namu pēc šīm dienām, saka Kungs: Es likšu savus likumus viņu prātā un ierakstīšu tos viņu sirdīs, un es būšu viņiem Dievs, un viņi būs mana tauta.

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.

¹¹Un neviens nemācīs savu tuvāko un neviens savu brāli sacīdams: Pazīsti Kungu, jo visi viņi no mazākā līdz lielākajam pazīs mani,

¹²For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.

¹²Jo es būšu žēlīgs viņu netaisnībām un viņu grēkus vairs nepieminēšu.

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.

¹³Ja Viņš runā par jauno, tad novecojusi agrākā: bet kas novecojis un kļūst nespēcīgs, tas tuvu iznīcībai.
