¹Fa ny lalàna, izay misy aloky ny zava-tsoa ho avy, fa tsy ny tena endrik'izany zavatra izany, dia tsy mba mahatanteraka ny olona manatona amin'izay fanatitra ateriny mandrakariva isan-taona.

¹For the law having a shadow of the coming good things — not the very image of the matters, every year, by the same sacrifices that they offer continually, is never able to make perfect those coming near,

²Raha izany, dia tsy ho nitsahatra va ny nanaterany ireo, satria rehefa nodiovina indray mandeha ny mpivavaka, dia tsy ho nasian'ny fieritreretany ny ota intsony izy?

²since, would they not have ceased to be offered, because of those serving having no more conscience of sins, having once been purified?

³Fa amin'ireo dia misy fahatsiarovana ny ota isan-taona.

³but in those [sacrifices] is a remembrance of sins every year,

⁴Fa tsy mahaisotra ny ota ny ran'ombilahy sy ny ran'osilahy.

⁴for it is impossible for blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.

⁵Koa nony niditra tamin'izao fiainana izao Izy, dia nanao hoe: "Ny fanatitra alatsa-drà sy ny fanatitra hohanina tsy mba nilainao, Fa tena no namboarinao ho Ahy;

⁵Wherefore, coming into the world, he saith, `Sacrifice and offering Thou didst not will, and a body Thou didst prepare for me,

⁶Ny fanatitra odorana sy ny fanatitra noho ny ota tsy sitrakao;

⁶in burnt-offerings, and concerning sin-offerings, Thou didst not delight,

⁷Dia hoy Izaho: Inty Aho tonga - Ao amin'ny horonam-boky no nanoratana Ahy -Hanao ny sitraponao, Andriamanitra ô". (Sal. 40.6-8).

⁷then I said, Lo, I come, (in a volume of the book it hath been written concerning me,) to do, O God, Thy will;`

⁸Rehefa nolazainy teo hoe: "Ny fanatitra alatsa-drà sy ny fanatitra hohanina sy ny fanatitra odorana ary ny fanatitra noho ny ota" (dia ireny aterina araka ny lalàna) "no tsy ilainao ary tsy sitrakao",

⁸saying above — `Sacrifice, and offering, and burnt-offerings, and concerning sin-offering Thou didst not will, nor delight in,` — which according to the law are offered —

⁹dia hoy indray Izy: "Inty Aho tonga hanao ny sitraponao." Manaisotra ny voalohany Izy mba hampitoerany ny faharoa.

⁹then he said, `Lo, I come to do, O God, Thy will;` he doth take away the first that the second he may establish;

¹⁰Amin'izany sitrapo izany no nanamasinana antsika tamin'ny nanaterana ny tenan'i Jesosy Kristy indray mandeha.

¹⁰in the which will we are having been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once,

¹¹Ary ny mpisorona rehetra dia mitsangana isan'andro manao fanompoam-pivavahana sy manatitra ireny fanatitra ireny ihany matetika izay tsy mahaisotra ny ota;

¹¹and every priest, indeed, hath stood daily serving, and the same sacrifices many times offering, that are never able to take away sins.

¹²fa Izy kosa, rehefa nanao fanatitra iray monja ho mandrakizay noho ny ota, dia efa mipetraka eo an-tanana ankavanan'Andriamanitra, [ Na: noho ny ota, dia efa mipetraka mandrakizay]

¹²And He, for sin one sacrifice having offered — to the end, did sit down on the right hand of God, —

¹³ka hatramin'izao dia miandry Izy mandra-panaony ny fahavalony ho fitoeran-tongony.

¹³as to the rest, expecting till He may place his enemies [as] his footstool,

¹⁴Fa ny fanatitra iray ihany no efa nahatanterahany ho mandrakizay izay olona hamasinina.

¹⁴for by one offering he hath perfected to the end those sanctified;

¹⁵Ary ny Fanahy Masina koa manambara izany amintsika; fa rehefa voalazany hoe:

¹⁵and testify to us also doth the Holy Spirit, for after that He hath said before,

¹⁶"Izao no fanekena hataoko aminy, Rehefa afaka izany andro izany, hoy Jehovah: Hataoko ao am-pony ny lalàko, Sady hosoratako ao an-tsainy,"

¹⁶`This [is] the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, giving My laws on their hearts, and upon their minds I will write them,`

¹⁷dia hoy koa Izy: "Ny fahotany sy ny helony tsy hotsarovako intsony" (Jer. 31.33, 34).

¹⁷and `their sins and their lawlessness I will remember no more;`

¹⁸Ary rehefa misy famelana ireo, dia tsy misy fanatitra noho ny ota intsony.

¹⁸and where forgiveness of these [is], there is no more offering for sin.

¹⁹[Teny famporisihana sy fananarana ho an'izay nihamalaina ka mila hihemotra] Koa amin'izany, ry rahalahy. satria manana fahatokiana hiditra ao amin'ny fitoerana masina isika noho ny ran'i Jesosy,

¹⁹Having, therefore, brethren, boldness for the entrance into the holy places, in the blood of Jesus,

²⁰amin'izay lalana natokany ho antsika, dia lalana vaovao sady velona, namaky teo amin'ny efitra lamba, dia ny nofony,

²⁰which way he did initiate for us — new and living, through the vail, that is, his flesh —

²¹sady manana Mpisorona lehibe mitandrina ny tranon'Andriamanitra,

²¹and a high priest over the house of God,

²²dia aoka isika hanatona amin'ny fo marina sy amin'ny fahatokiana be avy amin'ny finoana, manana fo voadio ho afaka amin'ny fieritreretana ratsy sy tena voasasa tamin'ny rano madio; [ Gr. voafafy]

²²may we draw near with a true heart, in full assurance of faith, having the hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and having the body bathed with pure water;

²³aoka hohazonintsika mafy ny fanekena ny fanantenana mba tsy hihozongozonany (fa mahatoky Ilay efa nanao ny teny fikasana);

²³may we hold fast the unwavering profession of the hope, (for faithful [is] He who did promise),

²⁴ary aoka isika hifampandinika hampandroso ny fitiavana sy ny asa tsara;

²⁴and may we consider one another to provoke to love and to good works,

²⁵aza mahafoy ny fiarahantsika miangona, tahaka ny fanaon'ny sasany, fa mifananara kosa, mainka satria hitanareo fa mihantomotra ny andro.

²⁵not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as a custom of certain [is], but exhorting, and so much the more as ye see the day coming nigh.

²⁶Fa raha minia manota isika rehefa nahazo ny fahalalana tsara ny marina, dia tsy misy fanatitra noho ny ota intsony,

²⁶For we — willfully sinning after the receiving the full knowledge of the truth — no more for sins doth there remain a sacrifice,

²⁷fa fiandrasana mahatahotra amin'ny fitsarana ary fahatezerana mirehitra izay handany ny fahavalo rehetra kosa.

²⁷but a certain fearful looking for of judgment, and fiery zeal, about to devour the opposers;

²⁸Izay manohitra ny lalàn'i Mosesy dia maty amin'ny tenin'ny vavolombelona roa na telo ka tsy asiana famindram-po;

²⁸any one who did set at nought a law of Moses, apart from mercies, by two or three witnesses, doth die,

²⁹manao ahoana kosa ary no hamafin'ny fampijaliana ataonareo tokony hihatra amin'izay nanitsaka ny Zanak'Andriamanitra ka nanao ny ran'ny fanekena izay nanamasinana azy ho zavatra tsy masina sady naniratsira ny Fanahin'ny fahasoavana?

²⁹of how much sorer punishment shall he be counted worthy who the Son of God did trample on, and the blood of the covenant did count a common thing, in which he was sanctified, and to the Spirit of the grace did despite?

³⁰Fa fantatsika Izay nanao hoe: "Ahy ny famaliana; Izaho no hamaly;" ary koa: "Jehovah hitsara ny olony" (Deo. 32.35, 36).

³⁰for we have known Him who is saying, `Vengeance [is] Mine, I will recompense, saith the Lord;` and again, `The Lord shall judge His people;` —

³¹Zavatra mahatahotra ny ho azon'ny tànan'Andriamanitra velona.

³¹fearful [is] the falling into the hands of a living God.

³²Fa tsarovy ny andro fahiny izay naharetanareo ny ady mafy tamin'ny fahoriana, rehefa nohazavaina ianareo;

³²And call to your remembrance the former days, in which, having been enlightened, ye did endure much conflict of sufferings,

³³indraindray raha natao ho fizaha noho ny fanaratsiana sy ny fampahoriana ianareo, ary indraindray koa raha tonga naman'izay azon'izany.

³³partly both with reproaches and tribulations being made spectacles, and partly having become partners of those so living,

³⁴Fa sady niara-niaritra tamin'izay nifatotra ianareo no nifaly raha norobaina ny fanananareo, satria fantatrareo fa ianareo dia manana fananana tsara lavitra sady maharitra. [ Na: fa ianareo dia manana ny tenanareo ho fananana tsara lavitra sady maharitra]

³⁴for also with my bonds ye sympathised, and the robbery of your goods with joy ye did receive, knowing that ye have in yourselves a better substance in the heavens, and an enduring one.

³⁵Koa aza manary ny fahasahianareo izay misy valiny lehibe.

³⁵Ye may not cast away, then, your boldness, which hath great recompense of reward,

³⁶Fa tokony hanana faharetana ianareo raha hahazoanareo izay lazain'ny teny fikasana, rehefa vitanareo ny sitrapon'Andriamanitra.

³⁶for of patience ye have need, that the will of God having done, ye may receive the promise,

³⁷Fa "rehefa afaka kelikely, Dia ho tonga Ilay ho avy, fa tsy hitaredretra"

³⁷for yet a very very little, He who is coming will come, and will not tarry;

³⁸Ary "ny oloko marina dia ho velon'ny finoana;" Fa raha mihemotra izy, dia tsy sitraky ny fanahiko (Hab. 2.3, 4). [ (ny marina)]Fa isika tsy mba naman'izay mihemotra ho amin'ny fahaverezana, fa naman'izay mino ho amin'ny famonjena ny fanahy.

³⁸and `the righteous by faith shall live,` and `if he may draw back, My soul hath no pleasure in him,`

³⁹Fa isika tsy mba naman'izay mihemotra ho amin'ny fahaverezana, fa naman'izay mino ho amin'ny famonjena ny fanahy.

³⁹and we are not of those drawing back to destruction, but of those believing to a preserving of soul.
