1ܪܝܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܟܠܗܝܢ ܐܝܬ ܠܢ ܪܒ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܐܝܢܐ ܕܝܬܒ ܡܢ ܝܡܝܢܐ ܕܟܘܪܤܝܐ ܕܪܒܘܬܐ ܒܫܡܝܐ ܀
1Now in the things which we are saying, the main point is this. We have such a high priest, who sat down on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,
2ܘܗܘܐ ܡܫܡܫܢܐ ܕܒܝܬ ܩܘܕܫܐ ܘܕܡܫܟܢܐ ܕܫܪܪܐ ܗܘ ܕܩܒܥ ܐܠܗܐ ܘܠܐ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܀
2a servant of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, not man.
3ܟܠ ܪܒ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܓܝܪ ܕܩܐV ܕܢܩܪܒ ܩܘܪܒܢܐ ܘܕܒܚܐ ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܙܕܩܐ ܗܘܬ ܐܦ ܠܗܢܐ ܕܢܗܘܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܡܕV ܕܢܩܪܒ ܀
3For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices. Therefore it is necessary that this high priest also have something to offer.
4ܘܐܠܘ ܒܐܪܥܐ ܗܘܐ ܐܦܠܐ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܗܘܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܐܝܬܝܗܘܢ ܗܘܘ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܕܡܩܪܒܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܩܘܪܒܢܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܒܢܡܘܤܐ ܀
4For if he were on earth, he would not be a priest at all, seeing there are priests who offer the gifts according to the law;
5ܗܢܘܢ ܕܡܫܡܫܝܢ ܠܕܡܘܬܐ ܘܠܛܠܢܝܬܐ ܕܗܠܝܢ ܕܒܫܡܝܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܐܬܐܡܪ ܠܡܘܫܐ ܟܕ ܥܒܕ ܗܘܐ ܡܫܟܢܐ ܕܚܙܝ ܘܥܒܕ ܟܠܡܕV ܒܕܡܘܬܐ ܗܝ ܕܐܬܚܙܝܬ ܠܟ ܒܛܘܪܐ ܀
5who serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly things, even as Moses was warned by God when he was about to make the tabernacle, for he said, “See, you shall make everything according to the pattern that was shown to you on the mountain.” Exodus 25:40
6ܗܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܬܫܡܫܬܐ ܕܡܝܬܪܐ ܡܢ ܗܝ ܩܒܠ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܟܡܐ ܕܡܝܬܪܐ ܐܦ ܕܝܬܝܩܐ ܗܝ ܕܥܒܝܕ ܒܗ ܡܨܥܝܐ ܘܒܫܘܘܕܝܐ ܕܡܝܬܪܝܢ ܡܢ ܕܗܝ ܐܬܝܗܒܬ ܀
6But now he has obtained a more excellent ministry, by so much as he is also the mediator of a better covenant, which on better promises has been given as law.
7ܐܠܘ ܓܝܪ ܐܝܬܝܗ ܗܘܬ ܩܕܡܝܬܐ ܕܠܐ ܪܫܝܢ ܠܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܐܬܪܐ ܠܗܕܐ ܕܬܪܬܝܢ ܀
7For if that first covenant had been faultless, then no place would have been sought for a second.
8ܪܫܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܘܐܡܪ ܕܗܐ ܝܘܡܬܐ ܐܬܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܡܪܝܐ ܘܐܓܡܘܪ ܥܠ ܒܝܬܐ ܕܒܝܬ ܐܝܤܪܝܠ ܘܥܠ ܒܝܬܐ ܕܒܝܬ ܝܗܘܕܐ ܕܝܬܩܐ ܚܕܬܐ ܀
8For finding fault with them, he said, “Behold, the days come,” says the Lord, “that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah;
9ܠܐ ܐܝܟ ܗܝ ܕܝܬܩܐ ܕܝܗܒܬ ܠܐܒܗܝܗܘܢ ܒܝܘܡܐ ܕܐܚܕܬ ܒܐܝܕܗܘܢ ܘܐܦܩܬ ܐܢܘܢ ܡܢ ܐܪܥܐ ܕܡܨܪܝܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܗܢܘܢ ܠܐ ܩܘܝܘ ܒܕܝܬܩܐ ܕܝܠܝ ܐܦ ܐܢܐ ܒܤܝܬ ܒܗܘܢ ܐܡܪ ܡܪܝܐ ܀
9not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers, in the day that I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; for they didn’t continue in my covenant, and I disregarded them,” says the Lord.
10ܗܕܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܝܬܩܐ ܕܐܬܠ ܠܒܝܬܐ ܕܒܝܬ ܐܝܤܪܝܠ ܒܬܪ ܝܘܡܬܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܐܡܪ ܡܪܝܐ ܐܬܠܝܘܗܝ ܠܢܡܘܤܝ ܒܡܕܥܝܗܘܢ ܘܥܠ ܠܒܘܬܗܘܢ ܐܟܬܒܝܘܗܝ ܘܐܗܘܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܢܐ ܐܠܗܐ ܘܗܢܘܢ ܢܗܘܘܢ ܠܝ ܥܡܐ ܀
10“For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel. After those days,” says the Lord; “I will put my laws into their mind, I will also write them on their heart. I will be their God, and they will be my people.
11ܘܠܐ ܢܠܦ ܐܢܫ ܠܒܪ ܡܕܝܢܬܗ ܐܦܠܐ ܠܐܚܘܗܝ ܘܢܐܡܪ ܕܕܥ ܠܡܪܝܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܟܠܗܘܢ ܢܕܥܘܢܢܝ ܡܢ ܙܥܘܪܗܘܢ ܘܥܕܡܐ ܠܩܫܝܫܗܘܢ ܀
11They will not teach every man his fellow citizen, TR reads “neighbor” instead of “fellow citizen” and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for all will know me, from their least to their greatest.
12ܘܐܚܤܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܡܢ ܥܘܠܗܘܢ ܘܚܛܗܝܗܘܢ ܬܘܒ ܠܐ ܐܬܕܟܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܀
12For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness. I will remember their sins and lawless deeds no more.” Jeremiah 31:31-34
13ܒܗܝ ܕܐܡܪ ܚܕܬܐ ܠܩܕܡܝܬܐ ܐܥܬܩܗ ܘܐܝܢܐ ܕܥܬܩ ܘܤܐܒ ܩܪܝܒ ܗܘ ܠܚܒܠܐ ܀
13In that he says, “A new covenant,” he has made the first old. But that which is becoming old and grows aged is near to vanishing away.
