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

¹Imela je pač tudi prva zaveza predpise za službo božjo in pozemeljsko svetišče.

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

²Šator namreč je bil napravljen – prvi [Ali: sprednji.], v katerem so bili svečnik in miza in razpostava kruhov; ta se imenuje Sveto [Ali: svetišče.].

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

³Za drugim zagrinjalom pa je bil šator, imenovan Najsvetejše,

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;

⁴imajoč zlato kadilnico in skrinjo zaveze, od vseh strani z zlatom okovano, v kateri je bil zlati vrč z mano in zeleneča palica Aronova in plošči zaveze,

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

⁵nad njo pa keruba slave, obsenčujoča pokrov sprave..., o čemer sedaj ni govoriti podrobno.

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

⁶Ker je torej to tako napravljeno, hodijo v prvi šator vedno duhovniki opravljat službo,

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:

⁷v drugi šator pa enkrat na leto sam veliki duhovnik, a ne brez krvi, ki jo prinaša zase in za grehe nevednosti ljudstva.

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:

⁸S tem sveti Duh kaže, da pot do svetišča ni še razodeta, dokler stoji prvi šator,

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;

⁹ki je podoba za sedanjo dobo; v katerem se darujejo darovi in žrtve, ki ne morejo v vesti popolnoma pomiriti [Dobesedno: popolnega storiti.] tistega, ki opravlja službo,

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

¹⁰ker so samo mesene naredbe (z jedili in pijačami ter z različnim umivanjem vred) naložene do časa poprave.

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;

¹¹Kristus pa je nastopil kot veliki duhovnik prihodnjih dobrot in je šel skozi večji in popolnejši šator, ki ni z roko narejen, to je, ki ni tega stvarjenja,

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.

¹²tudi ne po krvi kozlov in telet, ampak po svoji lastni krvi, enkrat za vselej v svetišče, ko je bil pridobil večno rešitev.

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:

¹³Kajti če bikov in kozlov kri in junice pepel, ki pokropi onečiščene, posvečuje za čistost mesa,

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?

¹⁴kolikanj bolj bo kri Kristusa, ki je po Duhu večnem daroval samega sebe brez madeža Bogu, očistila vest vašo mrtvih del, da služite Bogu živemu!

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.

¹⁵In zato je nove zaveze srednik: da dobé, ko se je smrt zgodila za odrešenje prestopkov, storjenih za prve zaveze, obljubo večne dediščine tisti, ki so poklicani.

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

¹⁶Kajti kjer je oporoka [Grška beseda pomeni zavezo in tudi oporoko (testament).], je treba, da nastopi oporočnikova smrt;

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

¹⁷zakaj oporoka je šele pri mrtvih veljavna, ker nikdar nima moči, dokler živi oporočnik.

¹⁸Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood.

¹⁸Zato tudi prva zaveza ni bila posvečena brez krvi.

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,

¹⁹Ko je bil namreč Mojzes vsako zapoved po postavi oznanil vsemu ljudstvu, je vzel kri telet in kozlov z vodo in škrlatno volno in z izopom ter je pokropil knjigo samo in vse ljudstvo, govoreč:

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

²⁰„To je kri zaveze, ki jo je vam Bog zapovedal“.

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

²¹In tudi šator in vse orodje službe božje je enako pokropil s krvjo.

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

²²In s krvjo se skoraj vse očišča po postavi, in brez prelitja krvi se ne zgodi odpuščenje.

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.

²³Potrebno je torej bilo, da se ‚podobe nebeških stvari‘ očiščajo s takimi, nebeške stvari same pa z boljšimi žrtvami mimo teh.

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:

²⁴Kajti Kristus ni šel v svetišče z roko narejeno, ki je le pravega svetišča podoba, temuč v samo nebo, da se sedaj kaže obličju Božjemu za nas;

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

²⁵tudi ni šel samega sebe večkrat darovat, kakor veliki duhovnik prihaja v svetišče vsako leto s tujo krvjo

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.

²⁶(sicer bi bil moral mnogokrat trpeti od ustanovitve sveta): sedaj pa na konci vekov se je enkrat prikazal v izbrisanje greha po žrtvi svoji.

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

²⁷In kakor je človeku namenjeno enkrat umreti, potem pa sodba,tako se je tudi Kristus enkrat daroval, da bi odvzel mnogih grehe, v drugič pa se prikaže ne zaradi greha, temuč v zveličanje njim, ki ga pričakujejo.

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.

²⁸tako se je tudi Kristus enkrat daroval, da bi odvzel mnogih grehe, v drugič pa se prikaže ne zaradi greha, temuč v zveličanje njim, ki ga pričakujejo.
