Hebrews 8
New American Standard Bible 1995
A Better Ministry
8 Now the main point in what has been said is this: we have such a (A)high priest, who has taken His seat at (B)the right hand of the throne of the (C)Majesty in the heavens, 2 a (D)minister [a]in the sanctuary and [b]in the (E)true [c]tabernacle, which the Lord (F)pitched, not man. 3 For every (G)high priest is appointed (H)to offer both gifts and sacrifices; so it is necessary that this high priest also have something to offer. 4 Now if He were on earth, He would not be a priest at all, since there are those who (I)offer the gifts according to the Law; 5 who serve (J)a copy and (K)shadow of the heavenly things, just as Moses [d]was (L)warned by God when he was about to erect the [e]tabernacle; for, “(M)See,” He says, “that you make all things according to the pattern which was shown you on the mountain.” 6 But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, by as much as He is also the (N)mediator of (O)a better covenant, which has been enacted on better promises.
A New Covenant
7 For (P)if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion sought for a second. 8 For finding fault with them, He says,
“(Q)Behold, days are coming, says the Lord,
[f]When I will effect (R)a new covenant
With the house of Israel and with the house of Judah;
9 (S)Not like the covenant which I made with their fathers
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 I did not care for them, says the Lord.
10 “(T)For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel
After those days, says the Lord:
[g]I will put My laws into their minds,
And I will write them (U)on their hearts.
And I will be their God,
And they shall be My people.
11 “(V)And they shall not teach everyone his fellow citizen,
And everyone his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’
For (W)all will know Me,
From [h]the least to the greatest of them.
12 “(X)For I will be merciful to their iniquities,
(Y)And I will remember their sins no more.”
13 [i]When He said, “(Z)A new covenant,” He has made the first obsolete. (AA)But whatever is becoming obsolete and growing old is [j]ready to disappear.

Hebrews 8
New King James Version
The New Priestly Service
8 Now this is the main point of the things we are saying: We have such a High Priest, (A)who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens, 2 a Minister of (B)the [a]sanctuary and of (C)the true tabernacle which the Lord erected, and not man.
3 For (D)every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices. Therefore (E)it is necessary that this One also have something to offer. 4 For if He were on earth, He would not be a priest, since there are priests who offer the gifts according to the law; 5 who serve (F)the copy and (G)shadow of the heavenly things, as Moses was divinely instructed when he was about to make the tabernacle. For He said, (H)“See that you make all things according to the pattern shown you on the mountain.” 6 But now (I)He has obtained a more excellent ministry, inasmuch as He is also Mediator of a (J)better covenant, which was established on better promises.
A New Covenant(K)
7 For if that (L)first covenant had been faultless, then no place would have been sought for a second. 8 Because finding fault with them, He says: (M)“Behold, the days are coming, says 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 did not continue in My covenant, and I disregarded them, says the Lord. 10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the (N)Lord: I will put My laws in their mind and write them on their hearts; and (O)I will be their God, and they shall be My people. 11 (P)None of them shall teach his neighbor, and none his brother, saying, ‘Know the (Q)Lord,’ for all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them. 12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, (R)and their sins [b]and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.”
13 (S)In that He says, “A new covenant,” He has made the first obsolete. Now what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.

Библия, ревизирано издание
Исус Христос е небесният Първосвещеник
8 (A)А главното от това, което казваме, е че имаме такъв Първосвещеник, Който седна отдясно на престола на Величието в небесата,
2 (B)служител на светилището и на истинската скиния, която Господ е поставил, а не човек.
3 (C)Защото всеки първосвещеник се поставя да принася и дарове, и жертви; затова е нужно и Този Първосвещеник да има нещо да принася.
4 А ако беше на земята, Той дори нямаше да бъде свещеник, защото има такива, които принасят даровете според закона
5 (D)(които служат на онова, което е само образ и сянка на небесните неща, както бе заповядано на Моисей, когато щеше да направи скинията; защото: „Внимавай, му каза Бог, да направиш всичко по образеца, който ти бе показан на планината“),
6 (E)А сега Исус получи по-висше служение от тяхното, тъй като и заветът, на който е Посредник, е по-добър, защото е основан на по-добри обещания.
7 (F)Защото ако онзи първи завет е бил без недостатък, Бог не би търсил място за втори.
8 (G)А, напротив, когато порицава израилтяните, казва:
„Ето, идат дни, казва Господ,
когато ще сключа с Израилевия дом и с Юдовия дом нов завет;
9 не такъв завет, какъвто сключих с бащите им
в деня, когато ги хванах за ръка, за да ги изведа от Египетската земя;
защото те не устояха в завета Ми
и Аз ги оставих, казва Господ.
10 (H)Защото ето завета, който ще сключа с Израилевия дом:
След онези дни, казва Господ,
ще положа законите Си в ума им
и ще ги напиша в сърцата им;
Аз ще бъда техен Бог
и те ще бъдат Мой народ.
11 (I)И няма вече да учат всеки съгражданина си
и всеки брат си, като му казват: Познай Господа!
Защото всички ще Ме познават,
от малък до голям между тях.
12 (J)Защото ще покажа милост към неправдите им
и греховете им (и беззаконията им) няма да помня вече.“
13 (K)А като каза „нов завет“, Той обявява първия за остарял. А онова, което овехтява и остарява, е близо до изчезване.
