¹Now even a first [covenant] had ordinances of divine service, and its sanctuary, [a sanctuary] of this world.

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

²For there was a tabernacle prepared, the first, wherein [were] the candlestick, and the table, and the showbread; which is called the Holy place.

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 Holy of holies;

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

⁴having a golden altar of incense, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein [was] a golden pot holding the 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 above it cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy-seat; of which things we cannot now speak severally.

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

⁶Now these things having been thus prepared, the priests go in continually into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the services;

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

⁷but into the second the high priest alone, once in the year, not without blood, which he offereth 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 Spirit this signifying, that the way into the holy place hath not yet been made manifest, while the first tabernacle is yet standing;

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

⁹which [is] a figure for the time present; according to which are offered both gifts and sacrifices that cannot, as touching the conscience, make the worshipper perfect,

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

¹⁰[being] only (with meats and drinks and divers washings) carnal ordinances, imposed until a time of reformation.

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

¹¹But Christ having come a high priest of the good things to come, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation,

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

¹²nor yet through the blood of goats and calves, but through his own blood, entered in once for all into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption.

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 goats and bulls, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling them that have been defiled, sanctify unto the cleanness 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 blemish unto God, cleanse 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 a new covenant, that a death having taken place for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first covenant, they that have been called may receive the promise of the 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 of necessity be the death of him that made it.

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

¹⁷For a testament is of force where there hath been death: for it doth never avail while he that made it liveth.

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

¹⁸Wherefore even the first [covenant] hath not been dedicated without blood.

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

¹⁹For when every commandment had been spoken by Moses unto all the people according to the law, he took the blood of the calves and the goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself 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 covenant which God commanded to you-ward.

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

²¹Moreover the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry he sprinkled in like manner with the blood.

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

²²And according to the law, I may almost say, all things are cleansed with blood, and apart from shedding of blood there is no remission.

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

²³It was necessary therefore that the copies of the things in the heavens should be cleansed 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 entered not into a holy place made with hands, like in pattern to the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear before the face 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 year by year with blood not his own;

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

²⁶else must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once at the end of the ages hath he been manifested 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 inasmuch as it is appointed unto men once to die, and after this [cometh] judgment;

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

²⁸so Christ also, having been once offered to bear the sins of many, shall appear a second time, apart from sin, to them that wait for him, 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.
