希伯来书 8
Revised Chinese Union Version (Simplified Script) Shen Edition
更新更美之约的大祭司
8 我们所讲的事,其中第一要紧的就是:我们有这样一位大祭司,他已经坐在天上至大者宝座的右边, 2 在圣所,就是在真帐幕里作仆役;这帐幕是主所支搭的,不是人所支搭的。 3 凡大祭司都是为献礼物和祭物设立的,所以这位大祭司也必须有所献上。 4 他若在地上,就不用作祭司,因为已经有照律法献礼物的祭司了。 5 他们所供奉的本是天上之事的样式和影像,正如摩西将要造帐幕的时候, 神警戒他,说:“要谨慎,一切都要照着在山上指示你的样式去做。” 6 如今耶稣已经得了更优越的事奉,正如他作更美之约的中保;这约原是凭更美之应许立的。
7 第一个约若没有瑕疵,就无须寻求第二个约了。 8 所以 神指责他们说:
“主说,看哪,日子将到,
我要与以色列家
和犹大家另立新的约;
9 不像我拉着他们祖宗的手
领他们出埃及地的时候,
与他们所立的约;
因为他们不恒心守我的约,
所以我也不理他们;这是主说的。
10 主又说:
那些日子以后,
我与以色列家所立的约是这样:
我要将我的律法放在他们的心思里,
写在他们的心上;
我要作他们的 神,
他们要作我的子民。
11 他们各人不用教导自己的乡亲和自己的弟兄,说:你要认识主;
因为从最小的到最大的,
他们都要认识我。
12 我要宽恕他们的不义,
绝不再记得他们的罪恶。”
13 既然 神提到“新的约”,那么第一个约就成为旧的了;而那渐旧渐衰的必然很快消逝了。

更美之约的大祭司
8 我们所讲的要点是:我们有这样一位大祭司,祂现在已经坐在天上至高上帝的宝座右边, 2 并在圣所里供职。这圣所就是真正的圣幕,不是人建立的,而是主亲手建立的。 3 所有的大祭司都是为了向上帝献礼物和祭物而设立的,因此我们这位大祭司也必须有所献上。 4 祂如果是在地上,根本不会做祭司,因为地上已经有照律法向上帝献礼物的祭司了。 5 这些祭司的事奉都是仿效和反映天上的事,正如摩西建圣幕的时候,上帝指示他说:
“你务要照着在山上指示你的样式造各样的器具。”
6 但如今,基督得到了一个更超越的职任,正如祂担任了更美之约的中保,这约是根据更美的应许所立的。 7 因为如果第一个约没有缺点,就不必另立新约了。 8 然而,上帝指责祂的百姓,说:
“看啊,时候将到,
我要与以色列家和犹大家另立新约,
9 这约不同于我与他们祖先所立的约,
就是我牵着他们祖先的手领他们离开埃及时所立的。
因为他们不持守我的约,
所以我不再理会他们。
这是主说的。
10 主又说,那些日子以后,
我将与以色列家立这样的约,
我要把我的律法放在他们脑中,
写在他们心上。
我要做他们的上帝,
他们要做我的子民。
11 谁都无需再教导自己的邻居和弟兄,
说,‘你要认识主。’
因为他们无论尊卑都必认识我。
12 我要赦免他们的过犯,
忘掉他们的罪恶。”
13 上帝既然说要立新约,就是把以前的约当作旧的了,那渐渐过时、陈旧的东西很快就会消失。
Hebrews 8
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
Mediator of a Better Covenant
8 Now the main point in what we are saying is this: we have such a high priest, one who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens, 2 a minister in the sanctuary and the true tent[a] that the Lord, and not any mortal, has set up. 3 For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices; hence it is necessary for this priest also to have something to offer. 4 Now if he were on earth, he would not be a priest at all, since there are priests who offer gifts according to the law. 5 They offer worship in a sanctuary that is a sketch and shadow of the heavenly one; for Moses, when he was about to erect the tent,[b] was warned, ‘See that you make everything according to the pattern that was shown you on the mountain.’ 6 But Jesus[c] has now obtained a more excellent ministry, and to that degree he is the mediator of a better covenant, which has been enacted through better promises. 7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no need to look for a second one.
8 God[d] finds fault with them when he says:
‘The days are surely coming, says the Lord,
when I will establish a new covenant with the house of Israel
and with the house of Judah;
9 not like the covenant that I made with their ancestors,
on the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt;
for they did not continue in my covenant,
and so I had no concern for them, says the Lord.
10 This is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel
after those days, says the Lord:
I will put my laws in their minds,
and write them on their hearts,
and I will be their God,
and they shall be my people.
11 And they shall not teach one another
or say to each other, “Know the Lord”,
for they shall all know me,
from the least of them to the greatest.
12 For I will be merciful towards their iniquities,
and I will remember their sins no more.’
13 In speaking of ‘a new covenant’, he has made the first one obsolete. And what is obsolete and growing old will soon disappear.
