Hebrews 8
King James Version
8 Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens;
2 A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man.
3 For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is of necessity that this man have somewhat also to offer.
4 For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law:
5 Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount.
6 But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.
7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.
8 For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:
9 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.
10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.
12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.
13 In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.

Jésus-Christ, médiateur de la nouvelle alliance
8 Le point capital de ce qui vient d’être dit, c’est que nous avons un tel souverain sacrificateur, qui s’est assis à la droite du trône de la majesté divine dans les cieux, 2 comme ministre du sanctuaire et du véritable tabernacle, qui a été dressé par le Seigneur et non par un homme.
3 Tout souverain sacrificateur est établi pour présenter des offrandes et des sacrifices; il est donc nécessaire que celui-ci ait aussi quelque chose à présenter. 4 S’il était sur la terre, il ne serait même pas sacrificateur, puisque là sont ceux qui présentent les offrandes selon la loi; 5 ils célèbrent un culte, image et ombre des choses célestes, comme Moïse en fut divinement averti lorsqu’il allait construire le tabernacle: Aie soin, lui fut-il dit, de tout faire d’après le modèle qui t’a été montré sur la montagne[a]. 6 Mais maintenant il a obtenu un ministère d’autant supérieur qu’il est le médiateur d’une alliance plus excellente, qui a été établie sur de meilleures promesses.
7 En effet, si la première alliance avait été sans défaut, il n’aurait pas été question de la remplacer par une seconde. 8 Car c’est avec l’expression d’un blâme que le Seigneur dit à Israël:
Voici, les jours viennent, dit le Seigneur,
Où je ferai avec la maison d’Israël et la maison de Juda
Une alliance nouvelle,
9 Non comme l’alliance que je traitai avec leurs pères,
Le jour où je les saisis par la main
Pour les faire sortir du pays d’Egypte;
Car ils n’ont pas persévéré dans mon alliance,
Et moi non plus je ne me suis pas soucié d’eux, dit le Seigneur.
10 Mais voici l’alliance que je ferai avec la maison d’Israël,
Après ces jours-là, dit le Seigneur:
Je mettrai mes lois dans leur esprit,
Je les écrirai dans leur cœur;
Et je serai leur Dieu,
Et ils seront mon peuple.
11 Personne n’enseignera plus son concitoyen,
Ni personne son frère, en disant:
Connais le Seigneur!
Car tous me connaîtront,
Depuis le plus petit jusqu’au plus grand d’entre eux;
12 Parce que je pardonnerai leurs iniquités,
Et que je ne me souviendrai plus de leurs péchés[b].
13 En disant: une alliance nouvelle, il a déclaré ancienne la première; or, ce qui est ancien, ce qui a vieilli, est près de disparaître.

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) 6 But in fact the ministry Jesus has received is as superior to theirs as the covenant(L) of which he is mediator(M) is superior to the old one, since the new covenant is established on better promises.
7 For if there had been nothing wrong with that first covenant, no place would have been sought for another.(N) 8 But God found fault with the people and said[b]:
“The days are coming, declares the Lord,
when I will make a new covenant(O)
with the people of Israel
and with the people of Judah.
9 It will not be like the covenant
I made with their ancestors(P)
when I took them by the hand
to lead them out of Egypt,
because they did not remain faithful to my covenant,
and I turned away from them,
declares the Lord.
10 This is the covenant(Q) I will establish with the people of Israel
after that time, declares the Lord.
I will put my laws in their minds
and write them on their hearts.(R)
I will be their God,
and they will be my people.(S)
11 No longer will they teach their neighbor,
or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord,’
because they will all know me,(T)
from the least of them to the greatest.
12 For I will forgive their wickedness
and will remember their sins no more.(U)”[c](V)
13 By calling this covenant “new,”(W) he has made the first one obsolete;(X) and what is obsolete and outdated will soon disappear.
