A Heavenly Priesthood
8 Now the main point of what is being said is this: We have this kind of high priest, who sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,(A) 2 a minister of the sanctuary and the true tabernacle that was set up by the Lord and not man.(B) 3 For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts(C) and sacrifices; therefore it was necessary for this priest also to have something to offer. 4 Now if He were on earth, He wouldn’t be a priest, since there are those[a] offering the gifts prescribed by the law. 5 These serve as a copy and shadow(D) of the heavenly things, as Moses was warned when he was about to complete the tabernacle. For God said, Be careful that you make everything according to the pattern that was shown to you on the mountain.(E)[b]

8 Now de the crowning affirmation kephalaion to epi what ho we are saying legō is this: we do have echō such toioutos a high archiereus priest , who hos has taken his seat kathizō at en the right dexios hand of the ho throne thronos of the ho Majesty megalōsynē in en · ho heaven ouranos, 2 an officiating priest leitourgos of ho holy hagios things and kai of the ho true alēthinos tabernacle skēnē · ho which hos the ho Lord kyrios put up pēgnymi, not ou man anthrōpos.
3 For gar every pas high priest archiereus is appointed kathistēmi to eis offer prospherō both te gifts dōron and kai sacrifices thusia; so hothen it was necessary anankaios for this houtos high priest also kai to have echō something tis to offer prospherō. 4 So oun if ei he had been eimi on epi earth gē, he would an not oude be eimi a priest hiereus, since there are eimi already those ho who offer prospherō the ho gifts dōron prescribed by kata the law nomos. 5 The place where they hostis serve latreuō is a shadowy skia suggestion hypodeigma · kai of the ho heavenly epouranios sanctuary, just as kathōs Moses Mōysēs was warned chrēmatizō by God when he was about mellō to erect epiteleō the ho tabernacle skēnē; for gar he said phēmi, “ See horaō that you make poieō everything pas according to kata the ho pattern typos · ho shown deiknymi you sy on en the ho mountain oros.”

The High Priest of a New Covenant
8 Now the main point of what we are saying is this: We do have such a high priest,(A) who sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven,(B) 2 and who serves in the sanctuary, the true tabernacle(C) set up by the Lord, not by a mere human being.
3 Every high priest(D) is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices,(E) and so it was necessary for this one also to have something to offer.(F) 4 If he were on earth, he would not be a priest, for there are already priests who offer the gifts prescribed by the law.(G) 5 They serve at a sanctuary that is a copy(H) and shadow(I) of what is in heaven. This is why Moses was warned(J) when he was about to build the tabernacle: “See to it that you make everything according to the pattern shown you on the mountain.”[a](K)
