希伯来书 10
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
永远的赎罪祭
10 律法只是将来美事的一个投影,并非本体的真像,所以年复一年的献祭不能使前来敬拜的人纯全。 2 否则,献祭的事早已终止了,因为敬拜的人若献一次祭就能彻底得到洁净,他们就不再觉得有罪了。 3 然而,每年献祭的事都使人想起自己的罪来, 4 因为公牛和山羊的血根本不能除去人的罪。
5 所以,基督来到世上的时候曾说:
“上帝啊,祭物和供物非你所悦,
你为我预备了身体。
6 你并非喜爱燔祭和赎罪祭。
7 于是我说,
‘上帝啊,我来是要遵行你的旨意,
我的事都记在圣经上了。’”
8 基督首先说:“祭物、供物、燔祭和赎罪祭都不是你想要的,也不是你喜悦的。”这些都是依照律法献上的。 9 然后祂又说:“我来是要遵行你的旨意。”这样,祂废除了前者,为要设立后者。 10 上帝的旨意是:耶稣基督只一次献上自己的身体,便使我们永远圣洁了。
11 祭司都要天天站着供职,一次次地献上同样的祭物,只是这些祭物根本不能除罪。 12 而基督一次献上自己成为永远的赎罪祭后,就坐在上帝的右边, 13 等待祂的仇敌成为祂的脚凳。 14 祂凭自己的一次牺牲,使那些得以圣洁的人永远纯全。
15 圣灵也向我们做见证,说:
16 “主说,那些日子以后,
我将与他们立这样的约,
我要把我的律例放在他们心中,
写在他们脑中。
17 我要忘记他们的过犯和罪恶。”
18 既然过犯和罪恶已经得到赦免,就不需要再为罪献祭了。
坚忍到底
19-20 弟兄姊妹,耶稣已用宝血为我们开辟了一条又新又活的路,使我们可以穿过幔子,就是祂的身体,坦然进入至圣所。 21 并且,我们有一位大祭司管理上帝的家, 22 祂洁净了我们被罪困扰的良心,用清水洗净了我们的身体。因此,我们要信心十足、真诚地到上帝面前。 23 我们要坚定不移地持守我们所认定的盼望,因为赐应许的那位是信实的。 24 我们要想办法彼此相顾,激发爱心,勉励行善。 25 不要停止聚会,像那些停止惯了的人,要互相鼓励,特别是你们知道主再来的日子近了。
26 因为我们知道了真理以后,若仍然故意犯罪,就再没有赎罪祭了, 27 只有可怕的审判和烧灭敌对者的烈火等候我们。 28 人违犯摩西的律法,经两三个人指证后,尚且被毫不留情地处死, 29 更何况人践踏上帝的儿子,轻看那使人圣洁的立约之血,又藐视赐人恩典的圣灵?这等人该受多么重的刑罚啊! 30 我们知道上帝说过:“申冤在我,我必报应。”祂又说:“主要审判祂的百姓。” 31 落在永活上帝的手中是可怕的!
32 你们要回想当初的日子,那时你们蒙了光照以后,忍受了各种苦难的煎熬。 33 有时候,你们在众目睽睽之下被辱骂,受迫害;有时候,你们和遭受这样苦难的人同舟共济。 34 你们体恤那些坐牢的人,即使你们的家业被抢夺,仍然甘心忍受,因为你们知道自己有更美的、永远长存的家业。 35 所以切勿失去勇敢的心,因为勇敢的心会给你们带来大赏赐。 36 你们需要坚忍到底,这样你们遵行了上帝的旨意后,便可以得到祂的应许。
37 因为“将要来临的那位很快要来了,绝不迟延。 38 属我的义人必靠信心而活。他若畏缩退后,我必不喜悦他。” 39 但我们都不是退后走向灭亡的人,而是因为有信心而灵魂得救的人。
Hebrews 10
Contemporary English Version
10 The Law of Moses is like a shadow of the good things to come. This shadow isn't the good things themselves, because it cannot free people from sin by the sacrifices offered year after year. 2 If there were worshipers who already have their sins washed away and their consciences made clear, there would not be any need to go on offering sacrifices. 3-4 But the blood of bulls and goats cannot take away sins. It only reminds people of their sins from one year to the next.
5 (A) When Christ came into the world, he said to God,
“Sacrifices and offerings
are not what you want,
but you have given me
my body.
6 No, you are not pleased
with animal sacrifices
and offerings for sin.”
7 Then Christ said,
“And so, my God,
I have come to do
what you want,
as the Scriptures say.”
8 The Law teaches that offerings and sacrifices must be made because of sin. But why did Christ mention these things and say that God did not want them? 9 Well, it was to do away with offerings and sacrifices and to replace them. This is what he meant by saying to God, “I have come to do what you want.” 10 So we are made holy because Christ obeyed God and offered himself once for all.
11 (B) The priests do their work each day, and they keep on offering sacrifices that can never take away sins. 12 (C) But Christ offered himself as a sacrifice that is good forever. Now he is sitting at God's right side,[a] 13 and he will stay there until his enemies are put under his power. 14 By his one sacrifice he has forever set free from sin the people he brings to God.
15 The Holy Spirit also speaks of this by telling us that the Lord said,
16 (D) “When the time comes,
I will make an agreement
with them.
I will write my laws
on their minds and hearts.
17 (E) Then I will forget
about their sins
and no longer remember
their evil deeds.”
18 When sins are forgiven, there is no more need to offer sacrifices.
Encouragement and Warning
19 My friends, the blood of Jesus gives us courage to enter the most holy place 20 by a new way that leads to life! And this way takes us through the curtain that is Christ himself.
21 We have a great high priest who is in charge of God's house. 22 (F) So let's come near God with pure hearts and a confidence that comes from having faith. Let's keep our hearts pure, our consciences free from evil, and our bodies washed with clean water. 23 We must hold tightly to the hope we say is ours. After all, we can trust the one who made the agreement with us. 24 We should keep on encouraging each other to be thoughtful and to do helpful things. 25 Some people have given up the habit of meeting for worship, but we must not do that. We should keep on encouraging each other, especially since you know that the day of the Lord's coming is getting closer.
26 No sacrifices can be made for people who decide to sin after they find out about the truth. 27 (G) They are God's enemies, and all they can look forward to is a terrible judgment and a furious fire. 28 (H) If two or more witnesses accused someone of breaking the Law of Moses, that person could be put to death. 29 (I) But it is much worse to dishonor God's Son and to disgrace the blood of the promise that made us holy. And it is just as bad to insult the Holy Spirit, who shows us mercy. 30 (J) We know that God has said he will punish and take revenge. We also know that the Scriptures say the Lord will judge his people. 31 It is a terrible thing to fall into the hands of the living God!
32 Don't forget all the hard times you went through when you first received the light. 33 Sometimes you were abused and mistreated in public, and at other times you shared in the sufferings of others. 34 You were kind to people in jail. And you gladly let your possessions be taken away, because you knew you had something better, something that would last forever.
35 Keep on being brave! It will bring you great rewards. 36 Learn to be patient, so you will please God and be given what he has promised. 37 (K) As the Scriptures say,
“God is coming soon!
It won't be very long.
38 The people God accepts
will live because
of their faith.[b]
But he isn't pleased
with anyone
who turns back.”
39 We are not like those people who turn back and get destroyed. We will keep on having faith until we are saved.
Hebrews 10
New International Version
Christ’s Sacrifice Once for All
10 The law is only a shadow(A) of the good things(B) that are coming—not the realities themselves.(C) For this reason it can never, by the same sacrifices repeated endlessly year after year, make perfect(D) those who draw near to worship.(E) 2 Otherwise, would they not have stopped being offered? For the worshipers would have been cleansed once for all, and would no longer have felt guilty for their sins.(F) 3 But those sacrifices are an annual reminder of sins.(G) 4 It is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats(H) to take away sins.(I)
5 Therefore, when Christ came into the world,(J) he said:
“Sacrifice and offering you did not desire,
but a body you prepared for me;(K)
6 with burnt offerings and sin offerings
you were not pleased.
7 Then I said, ‘Here I am—it is written about me in the scroll(L)—
I have come to do your will, my God.’”[a](M)
8 First he said, “Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not desire, nor were you pleased with them”(N)—though they were offered in accordance with the law. 9 Then he said, “Here I am, I have come to do your will.”(O) He sets aside the first to establish the second. 10 And by that will, we have been made holy(P) through the sacrifice of the body(Q) of Jesus Christ once for all.(R)
11 Day after day every priest stands and performs his religious duties; again and again he offers the same sacrifices,(S) which can never take away sins.(T) 12 But when this priest had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins,(U) he sat down at the right hand of God,(V) 13 and since that time he waits for his enemies to be made his footstool.(W) 14 For by one sacrifice he has made perfect(X) forever those who are being made holy.(Y)
15 The Holy Spirit also testifies(Z) to us about this. First he says:
16 “This is the covenant I will make with them
after that time, says the Lord.
I will put my laws in their hearts,
and I will write them on their minds.”[b](AA)
17 Then he adds:
18 And where these have been forgiven, sacrifice for sin is no longer necessary.
A Call to Persevere in Faith
19 Therefore, brothers and sisters, since we have confidence(AC) to enter the Most Holy Place(AD) by the blood of Jesus, 20 by a new and living way(AE) opened for us through the curtain,(AF) that is, his body, 21 and since we have a great priest(AG) over the house of God,(AH) 22 let us draw near to God(AI) with a sincere heart and with the full assurance that faith brings,(AJ) having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience(AK) and having our bodies washed with pure water.(AL) 23 Let us hold unswervingly to the hope(AM) we profess,(AN) for he who promised is faithful.(AO) 24 And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds,(AP) 25 not giving up meeting together,(AQ) as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another(AR)—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.(AS)
26 If we deliberately keep on sinning(AT) after we have received the knowledge of the truth,(AU) no sacrifice for sins is left, 27 but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire(AV) that will consume the enemies of God. 28 Anyone who rejected the law of Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses.(AW) 29 How much more severely do you think someone deserves to be punished who has trampled the Son of God(AX) underfoot,(AY) who has treated as an unholy thing the blood of the covenant(AZ) that sanctified them,(BA) and who has insulted the Spirit(BB) of grace?(BC) 30 For we know him who said, “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,”[d](BD) and again, “The Lord will judge his people.”[e](BE) 31 It is a dreadful thing(BF) to fall into the hands(BG) of the living God.(BH)
32 Remember those earlier days after you had received the light,(BI) when you endured in a great conflict full of suffering.(BJ) 33 Sometimes you were publicly exposed to insult and persecution;(BK) at other times you stood side by side with those who were so treated.(BL) 34 You suffered along with those in prison(BM) and joyfully accepted the confiscation of your property, because you knew that you yourselves had better and lasting possessions.(BN) 35 So do not throw away your confidence;(BO) it will be richly rewarded.
36 You need to persevere(BP) so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised.(BQ) 37 For,
38 And,
“But my righteous[g] one will live by faith.(BT)
And I take no pleasure
in the one who shrinks back.”[h](BU)
39 But we do not belong to those who shrink back and are destroyed, but to those who have faith and are saved.
