¹Koa na dia ny fanekena voalohany aza dia nisy fitsipika ny amin'ny fanompoam-pivavahana, ary nisy ny fitoerany masina momba ny etỳ an-tany.

¹It had, indeed, then (even the first tabernacle) ordinances of service, also a worldly sanctuary,

²Fa nisy tabernakely voavoatra: ny efitra voalohany, ilay atao hoe "ny fitoerana masina", izay nisy ny fanaovan-jiro sy ny latabatra ary ny mofo aseho.

²for a tabernacle was prepared, the first, in which was both the lamp-stand, and the table, and the bread of the presence — which is called `Holy;`

³Ary ao anatin'ny efitra lamba faharoa no nisy ny tabernakely izay atao hoe "ny fitoerana masina indrindra,"

³and after the second vail a tabernacle that is called `Holy of holies,`

⁴izay nisy lovia volamena fandoroana ditin-kazo manitra sy ny fiaran'ny fanekena, izay voapetaka takela-bolamena avokoa; ary tao anatin'io nisy ny vilany volamena, izay nitoeran'ny mana, sy ny tehin'i Arona izay nitsimoka, ary ny vato fisaky ny fanekena; [ Na: alitara]

⁴having a golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid all round about with gold, in which [is] the golden pot having the manna, and the rod of Aaron that budded, and the tables of the covenant,

⁵ary teo ambonin'io koa ny kerobima nisy ny voninahitra, izay nanaloka ny rakotra fanaovam-panavotana,- tsy azonay lazaina tsirairay ireo ankehitriny.

⁵and over it cherubim of the glory, overshadowing the mercy-seat, concerning which we are not now to speak particularly.

⁶Ary rehefa voavoatra toy izany ireo zavatra ireo, dia miditra mandrakariva eo amin'ny tabernakely voalohany ny mpisorona hanefa ny fanompoam-pivavahana.

⁶And these things having been thus prepared, into the first tabernacle, indeed, at all times the priests do go in, performing the services,

⁷Fa ny faharoa kosa no idiran'ny mpisoronabe irery ihany indray mandeha isan-taona; ary izy aza dia tsy miditra, raha tsy mitondra rà, izay ateriny noho ny amin'ny tenany sy ny fahadisoana nataon'ny olona amin'ny tsi-fahalalana;

⁷and into the second, once in the year, only the chief priest, not apart from blood, which he doth offer for himself and the errors of the people,

⁸koa izany no anambaran'ny Fanahy Masina fa tsy mbola voaseho ny lalana mankany amin'ny fitoerana masina indrindra, raha mbola ao ihany ny tabernakely voalohany;

⁸the Holy Spirit this evidencing that not yet hath been manifested the way of the holy [places], the first tabernacle having yet a standing;

⁹fanoharana izany amin'izao andro ankehitriny izao, ary araka izany no anaterana fanomezana sy fanatitra, izay tsy mahatanteraka ny mpivavaka ny amin'ny fieritreretana

⁹which [is] a simile in regard to the present time, in which both gifts and sacrifices are offered, which are not able, in regard to conscience, to make perfect him who is serving,

¹⁰(fa naman'ny zavatra hohanina sy ny zavatra hosotroina sy ny fanasana samy hafa), dia fitsipika araka ny nofo, voatendrv hatao mandra-pihavin'ny andro fanovana.

¹⁰only in victuals, and drinks, and different baptisms, and fleshly ordinances — till the time of reformation imposed upon [them].

¹¹Fa Kristy kosa, rehefa tonga ho Mpisoronabe ny amin'ny zavatra tsara ho avy, dia namaky teo amin'ny tabernakely lehibe lavitra sady tsara lavitra, izay tsy nataon-tanana, izany hoe, tsy isan'izao zavatra ary izao,

¹¹And Christ being come, chief priest of the coming good things, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands — that is, not of this creation —

¹²ary tsy mba nitondra ran'osilahy sy ran-janak'omby Izy, fa ny ran'ny tenany, dia niditra indray mandeha ho any amin'ny fitoerana masina ka nahazo fanavotana mandrakizay.

¹²neither through blood of goats and calves, but through his own blood, did enter in once into the holy places, age-during redemption having obtained;

¹³Fa raha ny ran'osilahy sy ny ran'ombilahy ary ny lavenom-bantotr'ombivavy afafy amin'izay voaloto no manamasina hatramin'ny fanadiovana ny nofo,

¹³for if the blood of bulls, and goats, and ashes of an heifer, sprinkling those defiled, doth sanctify to the purifying of the flesh,

¹⁴mainka fa ny ran i Kristy, Izay nanatitra ny tenany tsy manan-tsiny ho an'Andriamanitra, tamin'ny alalan'ny Fanahy mandrakizay, no hahadio ny fieritreretanareo ho afaka amin'ny asa maty mba hanompoanareo an'Andriamanitra velona.

¹⁴how much more shall the blood of the Christ (who through the age-during Spirit did offer himself unblemished to God) purify your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

¹⁵Ary noho izany dia Mpanalalana amin'izay fanekena vaovao Izy, rehefa niaritra fahafatesana ho fanavotana amin'ny fahotana natao tamin'ny fanekena voalohany, mba hahazoan'izay voantso ny teny fikasana, dia ny lova mandrakizay.

¹⁵And because of this, of a new covenant he is mediator, that, death having come, for redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, those called may receive the promise of the age-during inheritance,

¹⁶Fa raha misy didim-pananana, dia teny foana izany, raha tsy efa maty izay nanao azy. [ Na: fanekena]

¹⁶for where a covenant [is], the death of the covenant-victim to come in is necessary,

¹⁷Fa mafy ny didim-pananana, rehefa tonga ny fahafatesana; fa tsy mafy akory izany, raha mbola velona ilay nanao azy. [ Na: fanekena]

¹⁷for a covenant over dead victims [is] stedfast, since it is no force at all when the covenant-victim liveth,

¹⁸Koa na dia ny fanekena voalohany aza dia tsy nohamasinina raha tsy nisy rà.

¹⁸whence not even the first apart from blood hath been initiated,

¹⁹Fa rehefa voalazan'i Mosesy tamin'ny vahoaka rehetra ny didy rehetra araka ny lalàna, dia nalainy ny ran-janak'omby sy ny ran'osilahy mbamin'ny rano sy ny volon'ondry jaky sy ny hysopa ka nafafiny tamin'ny boky sy ny vahoaka rehetra;

¹⁹for every command having been spoken, according to law, by Moses, to all the people, having taken the blood of the calves and goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, he both the book itself and all the people did sprinkle,

²⁰dia hoy izy; Ity no ran'ny fanekena izay nandidian'Andriamanitra anareo (Eks. 24. 8).

²⁰saying, `This [is] the blood of the covenant that God enjoined unto you,`

²¹Ary ny tabernakely sy ny fanaka rehetra enti-manao fanompoam-pivavahana dia nofafazany rà toy izany koa.

²¹and both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the service with blood in like manner he did sprinkle,

²²Ary saiky diovina amin'ny rà avokoa ny zavatra rehetra araka ny lalàna; fa raha tsy misy rà alatsaka, dia tsy misy famelan-keloka.

²²and with blood almost all things are purified according to the law, and apart from blood-shedding forgiveness doth not come.

²³Koa dia tsy maintsy nodiovina tamin'ireny ny tandindon'ny zavatra any an-danitra, fa ny tenan'ny zavatra any an-danitra kosa dia tamin'izay fanatitra tsara noho ireny.

²³[It is] necessary, therefore, the pattern indeed of the things in the heavens to be purified with these, and the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these;

²⁴Fa Kristy tsy mba niditra tao amin'izay fitoerana masina nataon-tanana, izay tandindon'ny tena fitoerana masina, fa ho any an-danitra tokoa, mba hiseho eo anatrehan'Andriamanitra ankehitriny ho antsika;

²⁴for not into holy places made with hands did the Christ enter — figures of the true — but into the heaven itself, now to be manifested in the presence of God for us;

²⁵ary tsy niditra Izy mba hanatitra ny tenany matetika, tahaka ny mpisoronabe miditra ao amin'ny fitoerana masina isan-taona mitondra ny ran'ny zavatra hafa;

²⁵nor that he may many times offer himself, even as the chief priest doth enter into the holy places every year with blood of others;

²⁶fa raha izany, dia tsy maintsy ho nijaly matetika Izy hatrizay nanaovana izao tontolo izao; fa ankehitriny dia efa naseho indray mandeha tamin'izao andro farany izao Izy raha hanafaka ny ota tamin'ny nanaterany ny tenany.

²⁶since it had behoved him many times to suffer from the foundation of the world, but now once, at the full end of the ages, for putting away of sin through his sacrifice, he hath been manifested;

²⁷Ary tahaka ny nanendrena ny olona ny ho faty indray mandeha, ary rehefa afaka izany, dia hisy fitsarana,dia tahaka izany koa Kristy, rehefa natolotra indray mandeha hitondra ny otan'ny maro, dia hiseho fanindroany, tsy amin'ota, amin'izay miandry Azy, ho famonjena.

²⁷and as it is laid up to men once to die, and after this — judgment,

²⁸dia tahaka izany koa Kristy, rehefa natolotra indray mandeha hitondra ny otan'ny maro, dia hiseho fanindroany, tsy amin'ota, amin'izay miandry Azy, ho famonjena.

²⁸so also the Christ, once having been offered to bear the sins of many, a second time, apart from a sin-offering, shall appear, to those waiting for him — to salvation!
