Jesus, High Priest of a New Covenant

8 Now the main point in what is being said is this: we have such a ^(A)high priest, who sat down at ^(B)the right hand of the throne of the ^(C)Majesty in the heavens, ² a ^(D)minister ^[a]in the ^[b]holy places and ^[c]in the ^(E)true ^[d]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 ^[e]was ^(L)warned by God when he was about to erect the tabernacle; for, “^(M)See,” He says, “that you make all things according to the pattern which was shown you on the mountain.”
