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.” 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. 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 [f]Lord,
[g]When I will complete (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
In 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 [h]Lord.
10 (T)For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel
After those days, says the [i]Lord:
[j]I will put My laws into their minds,
And (U)upon their hearts I will write them.
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 [k]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 [l]When He said, “(Z)A new covenant,” He has made the first obsolete. (AA)But whatever is becoming obsolete and growing old is [m]ready to disappear.
2 Thus says Yahweh,
“For three transgressions of (A)Moab and for four
I will not turn back its punishment
Because he (B)burned the bones of the king of Edom to lime.
2 So I will send fire upon Moab,
And it will consume the citadels of (C)Kerioth;
And Moab will die amid great (D)rumbling,
Amid a loud shout and the sound of a trumpet.
3 I will also cut off the [a](E)judge from her midst
And kill all her (F)princes with him,” says Yahweh.
Punishment of Judah and Israel
4 Thus says Yahweh,
“For three transgressions of (G)Judah and for four
I will not turn back its punishment
Because they (H)rejected the law of Yahweh
And have not kept His statutes;
Their [b](I)falsehood also has led them astray,
That which their (J)fathers walked after.
5 So I will (K)send fire upon Judah,
And it will consume the citadels of Jerusalem.”
6 Thus says Yahweh,
“For three transgressions of (L)Israel and for four
I will not turn back its punishment
Because they (M)sell the righteous for money
And the needy for a pair of sandals.
7 These who [c]pant after the very dust of the earth on the head of the (N)poor
Also (O)turn aside the way of the humble;
And a (P)man and his father go to the same [d]young woman
In order to profane My holy name.
8 On garments (Q)taken as pledges they stretch out beside (R)every altar,
And in the house of their God they (S)drink the wine of those who have been fined.
9 “Yet it was I who destroyed the (T)Amorite before them,
[e]Though his (U)height was like the height of cedars,
And he was strong as the oaks;
I even destroyed his (V)fruit above and his root below.
10 And it was I who (W)brought you up from the land of Egypt,
And I led you in the wilderness (X)forty years
[f]That you might take possession of the land of the (Y)Amorite.
11 Then I (Z)raised up some of your sons to be prophets
And some of your choice men to be (AA)Nazirites.
Is this not so, O sons of Israel?” declares Yahweh.
12 “But you made the Nazirites drink wine,
And you commanded the prophets saying, ‘You (AB)shall not prophesy!’
13 Behold, I am [g](AC)weighted down beneath you
As a wagon [h]is weighted down when filled with sheaves.
14 (AD)So [i]flight will perish from the swift,
And the strong will not instill his power with courage,
Nor will the (AE)mighty man make his [j]life escape.
15 He who (AF)grasps the bow will not stand his ground,
The swift of foot will not escape,
Nor will he who rides the (AG)horse make his [k]life escape.
16 Even the [l]most courageous of heart among the mighty men will (AH)flee naked in that day,” declares Yahweh.
