¹Now indeed even the first TR adds “tabernacle” covenant had ordinances of divine service, and an earthly sanctuary.

¹Huan, thukhun masa mahin leng Pathian nasepna dan te leh mun siangthou, hiai khovel mun siangthou tuh a nei ahi.

²For a tabernacle was prepared. In the first part were the lampstand, the table, and the show bread; which is called the Holy Place.

²Biakbuk a bawl ua, tuah masak tuh khawnvak koihna bang, dohkan bang tanghou- koihnabang omna ahi; huai tuh Mun Siangthou achi uhi.

³After the second veil was the tabernacle which is called the Holy of Holies,

³Huan, puanjak nihna khenah biakbuk, Mun Siangthoupen achih uh a oma;

⁴having a golden altar of incense, and the ark of the covenant overlaid on all sides with gold, in which was a golden pot holding the manna, Aaron’s rod that budded, and the tablets of the covenant;

⁴huailaiah dangkaeng gimlim halna bawm leh, thukhunna bawm dangkaenga luan a oma, huai thukhunna bawm tungah Manna omna dangkaeng belbang, Aron chiang sel bang, thukhunna bang a omhi;

⁵and above it cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat, of which things we can’t speak now in detail.

⁵a tunglamah jahngaihna tutphah liahin, thupina Cherubte a om ua; huaite khawng tuin jaw a kim sipsip in I gen theikei ding uh.

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

⁶Huan huai thilte tuh huchibangabawl a nahi ua, Siamputen Pathian na semin, biakbuk tuahmasak ah a lut jel uh;

⁷but into the second the high priest alone, once in the year, not without blood, which he offers for himself, and for the errors of the people.

⁷a zom ah tuh Siampu Lianpen kia kumtengin khatvei, sisan tawi lou louin a luta; huai tuh amah khelhna ading leh mite khelhna adingin alan jel ahi.

⁸The Holy Spirit is indicating this, that the way into the Holy Place wasn’t yet revealed while the first tabernacle was still standing;

⁸Kha Siangthouin hiai a theisak: Mun Siangthoua lutna lam a kilang naitadih keia, biakbuk tuah masak tuh adin laiteng, chihpen;

⁹which is a symbol of the present age, where gifts and sacrifices are offered that are incapable, concerning the conscience, of making the worshipper perfect;

⁹(huai tuh tulai hun genteh na ahi). Huai bang jelin thilpiak leh kithoihnate leng a lan jel uh, a hihhangin huaiten sia leh phatheihna lam ah a bemi a hihkim theikei hi:

¹⁰being only (with meats and drinks and various washings) fleshly ordinances, imposed until a time of reformation.

¹⁰huai tuh (nekdingte, dawndingte, silhding tuamtuamte, toh) sa lam dante kia, bawlhoih hun ma adinga, chih ahi.

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

¹¹Himahleh, Kris bel thilhoih hongom dingte Siampu Lianpen dinga hongpaiin, biakbuk, khuta lamlouh (huai tuh hiai thilsiamte laka ahi kei chihna ahi),

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.

¹²thupi leh kim jaw pai tanin, eia dinga khantawna tatkhiakna mu khinin kelte leh bawngnoute sisan jiak hilouin, amah sisan jiak jawin, Mun Siangthouah setden dingin khatveiin ana lutta ngala.

¹³For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled, sanctify to the cleanness of the flesh:

¹³Kel leh bawngpate sisan leh, bawngla vu, minin tunga thehin bawn sa siang khopa a hihsiangthou ngalleh,

¹⁴how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

¹⁴Kris, khantawna Kha jiaka gensiatbeia Pathian kianga kilan sisanin, Pathian hing nasem dingin na sia leh pha theihna uh thilhih sisa lakah nak hihsiangthou natel inchia!

¹⁵For this reason he is the mediator of a new covenant, since a death has occurred for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first covenant, that those who have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.

¹⁵Huan, hiaijiakin, amah tuh thukhunthak palai ahi, thukhun masa nuaia tatleknate laka kipan tatna dinga mi a na sihtak jiakin sapten tuh khantawna gouluah ding thuchiam a tang thei ding uhi.

¹⁶For where a last will and testament is, there must of necessity be the death of him who made it.

¹⁶Thusiah omna peuhah a siahmi sihna leng a om teitei ding ahi ngala.

¹⁷For a will is in force where there has been death, for it is never in force while he who made it lives.

¹⁷Mi a sih nungun thusiahin thua neingal naka, a siahmi adamlai teng bel thu himhim a neikei hi.

¹⁸Therefore even the first covenant has not been dedicated without blood.

¹⁸Huchiin thukhun masa leng sisan louin a hihkip kei uhi,

¹⁹For when every commandment had been spoken by Moses to 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,

¹⁹Dan thupiak peuhmah tuh Mosiin mipi tengteng kianga a phuan nungin, bawngnoute leh kelte sisan tuh, tui toh, samulkhau sandup toh, husop toh a la a, laibu ngei leh mi tengteng leng a theha,

²⁰saying, “This is the blood of the covenant which God has commanded you.” Exodus 24:8

²⁰Huai tuh Pathianin na kiang ua a piak kip thukhun sisan ahi, chiin.

²¹Moreover he sprinkled the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry in the same way with the blood.

²¹Huailou leng, biakbuk leh nasepna van tengteng huchibang mahin sisanin a theh samta hi.

²²According to the law, nearly everything is cleansed with blood, and apart from shedding of blood there is no remission.

²²Huan, dan thuin bangkim phial sisana hihsiangthouin a om a, sisan suahlouin ngaihdamna himhim a om kei hi.

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.

²³Huchiin, vana thil om batpihte tuh huaitea hihsiangthoua om ding him ahi, van thil taktakte bel huaisanga kithoihna hoihjawtea hihsiangthoua om ding ahi.

²⁴For Christ hasn’t entered into holy places made with hands, which are representations of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us;

²⁴Kris tuh khuta lam mun siangthou, a tak batpih ah a lut ngal kei a; tunah Pathian maah I sik ua ding dingin van ngei ah, a lut jaw ta hi.

²⁵nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest enters into the holy place year by year with blood not his own,

²⁵Himahleh, Siampu Lianpen kum tenga amah sisan lou, sisan tawi kawma Mun Siangthoua lut jel bangin, amah bel amah kilan dingina lut sam kei;

²⁶or else he must have suffered often since the foundation of the world. But now once at the end of the ages, he has been revealed to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

²⁶huchi hita kei leh, leilung piantung akipan tam veipi a thuakta ding hi; himahleh, tulai hun tawp ah kithoihna dinga kizang tawmin khelhna hih mangna dingin khatvei in setden din amah hong langta ahi.

²⁷Inasmuch as it is appointed for men to die once, and after this, judgment,

²⁷Huan, mihinga dingin khatvei sih seh ahi, huai nungin vaihawmna aom ding.huchi bangmahin Kris leng, mitampi khelhnate paipih dinga khatvei lata omkhinin, hotdamna mu dinga, amah nangakte kiangah, khelhna panglouin nihveina ah a honglang nawn ding hi.

²⁸so Christ also, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, Isaiah 53:13 will appear a second time, without sin, to those who are eagerly waiting for him for salvation.

²⁸huchi bangmahin Kris leng, mitampi khelhnate paipih dinga khatvei lata omkhinin, hotdamna mu dinga, amah nangakte kiangah, khelhna panglouin nihveina ah a honglang nawn ding hi.
