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
Complete Jewish Bible
10 For the Torah has in it a shadow of the good things to come, but not the actual manifestation of the originals. Therefore, it can never, by means of the same sacrifices repeated endlessly year after year, bring to the goal those who approach the Holy Place to offer them. 2 Otherwise, wouldn’t the offering of those sacrifices have ceased? For if the people performing the service had been cleansed once and for all, they would no longer have sins on their conscience. 3 No, it is quite the contrary — in these sacrifices is a reminder of sins, year after year. 4 For it is impossible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins.
5 This is why, on coming into the world, he says,
“It has not been your will
to have an animal sacrifice and a meal offering;
rather, you have prepared for me a body.
6 No, you have not been pleased
with burnt offerings and sin offerings.
7 Then I said, ‘Look!
In the scroll of the book
it is written about me.
I have come to do your will.’”[a]
8 In saying first, “You neither willed nor were pleased with animal sacrifices, meal offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings,” things which are offered in accordance with the Torah; 9 and then, “Look, I have come to do your will”; he takes away the first system in order to set up the second. 10 It is in connection with this will that we have been separated for God and made holy, once and for all, through the offering of Yeshua the Messiah’s body.
11 Now every cohen stands every day doing his service, offering over and over the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. 12 But this one, after he had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, sat down at the right hand of God, 13 from then on to wait until his enemies be made a footstool for his feet.[b] 14 For by a single offering he has brought to the goal for all time those who are being set apart for God and made holy.
15 And the Ruach HaKodesh too bears witness to us; for after saying,
16 “ ‘This is the covenant which I will make
with them after those days,’ says Adonai:
‘I will put my Torah on their hearts,
and write it on their minds . . . ,’ ”[c]
17 he then adds,
“ ‘And their sins and their wickednesses
I will remember no more.’ ”[d]
18 Now where there is forgiveness for these, an offering for sins is no longer needed.
19 So, brothers, we have confidence to use the way into the Holiest Place opened by the blood of Yeshua. 20 He inaugurated it for us as a new and living way through the parokhet, by means of his flesh. 21 We also have a great cohen over God’s household. 22 Therefore, let us approach the Holiest Place with a sincere heart, in the full assurance that comes from trusting — with our hearts sprinkled clean from a bad conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.[e] 23 Let us continue holding fast to the hope we acknowledge, without wavering; for the One who made the promise is trustworthy. 24 And let us keep paying attention to one another, in order to spur each other on to love and good deeds, 25 not neglecting our own congregational meetings, as some have made a practice of doing, but, rather, encouraging each other.
And let us do this all the more as you see the Day approaching. 26 For if we deliberately continue to sin after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, 27 but only the terrifying prospect of Judgment, of raging fire that will consume the enemies.[f]
28 Someone who disregards the Torah of Moshe is put to death without mercy on the word of two or three witnesses.[g] 29 Think how much worse will be the punishment deserved by someone who has trampled underfoot the Son of God; who has treated as something common the blood of the covenant[h] which made him holy; and who has insulted the Spirit, giver of God’s grace!
30 For the One we know is the One who said,
“Vengeance is my responsibility;
I will repay,”
and then said,
“Adonai will judge his people.”[i]
31 It is a terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God!
32 But remember the earlier days, when, after you had received the light, you endured a hard struggle with sufferings. 33 Sometimes you were publicly disgraced and persecuted, while at other times you stood loyally by those who were treated this way. 34 For you shared the sufferings of those who had been put in prison. Also when your possessions were seized, you accepted it gladly; since you knew that what you possessed was better and would last forever.
35 So don’t throw away that courage of yours, which carries with it such a great reward. 36 For you need to hold out; so that, by having done what God wills, you may receive what he has promised. 37 For
“There is so, so little time!
The One coming will indeed come,
he will not delay.
38 But the person who is righteous
will live his life by trusting,
and if he shrinks back,
I will not be pleased with him.”[j]
39 However, we are not the kind who shrink back and are destroyed; on the contrary, we keep trusting and thus preserve our lives!
