Hebrews 8

Jesus Our High Priest

Now this is the main point of the things that we are saying: We have such a High Priest, who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens, a minister in the sanctuary and the true tabernacle, which the Lord, not man, set up.

For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices. Therefore it is necessary that this priest also have something to offer. For if He were on earth, He would not be a priest, since there are priests that offer gifts according to the law. They serve in a sanctuary that is an example and shadow of the heavenly one, as Moses was instructed by God when he was about to make the tabernacle, “See that you make all things according to the pattern shown you on the mountain.”[a] But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, because He is the Mediator of a better covenant, which was established on better promises.

For if that first covenant had been faultless, then no occasion would have been sought for a second. For finding fault with them, God says:

“Surely 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,
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 rejected them, says the Lord.
10 This is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel
    after those days, says the Lord:
I will put My laws into their minds
    and write them on their hearts;
and I will be their God,
    and they shall be My people.
11 No longer shall every man teach his neighbor,
    and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’
for all shall know Me,
    from the least of them to the greatest.[b]
12 For I will be merciful toward their unrighteousness,
    and their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.”[c]

13 In speaking of a new covenant He has made the first one old. Now that which is decaying and growing old is ready to vanish away.

Amos 2

Thus says the Lord:

For three transgressions of Moab,
    and for four, I will not revoke the punishment,
because he burned to lime
    the bones of the king of Edom.
So I will send fire against Moab,
    and it will devour the fortresses of Kerioth;
Moab will die in uproar,
    with a war cry and the alarm of the trumpet.
I will cut off the ruler from its midst,
    and will slay all its princes with him,
    says the Lord.

Judgment Against Judah

Thus says the Lord:

For three transgressions of Judah,
    and for four, I will not revoke the punishment,
because they have rejected the law of the Lord,
    and have not kept His commandments.
The lies which their fathers followed
    have led them astray.
So I will send fire against Judah,
    and it will devour the fortresses of Jerusalem.

Judgment Against Israel

Thus says the Lord:

For three transgressions of Israel,
    and for four, I will not revoke the punishment,
because they sell the righteous for silver,
    and the poor for a pair of sandals.
They trample the head of the poor
    into the dust of the earth,
    and push the oppressed out of the way.
A man and his father go in to the same woman,
    profaning My holy name.
They recline by every altar
    on garments taken in pledge,
and in the house of their gods
    they drink the wine from those who have been fined.

Yet it was I who destroyed the Amorite before them,
    whose height was like the height of the cedars.
    He was strong as the oaks,
yet I destroyed his fruit above
    and his roots below.

10 It was I who brought you up from the land of Egypt,
    and led you forty years through the wilderness,
    to possess the land of the Amorite.

11 I raised up some of your sons as prophets,
    and some of your young men as Nazirites.
Is it not so, O children of Israel?
    says the Lord.
12 But you made the Nazirites drink wine,
    and commanded the prophets, saying, “Do not prophesy.”

13 Indeed I will slow you down,
    as a wagon is slowed that is full of sheaves.
14 Flight will perish from the swift,
    the strong will not retain his strength,
    nor will the warrior save his life.
15 The bowman will not stand firm,
    the swift-footed will not escape,
    nor will the horseman save his life.
16 He that is courageous among the warriors
    will flee away naked on that day,
    says the Lord.

Psalm 145

Psalm 145

A Psalm of Praise. Of David.

I will exalt you, my God and King,
    and I will bless Your name forever and ever.
Every day I will bless You,
    and I will praise Your name forever and ever.

Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised,
    and His greatness is unfathomable.
One generation shall praise Your works to another
    and shall declare Your mighty acts.
I will speak of the glorious honor of Your majesty
    and of Your wondrous works.
They shall speak of the might of Your awesome acts,
    and I will declare Your greatness.
They shall abundantly declare the fame of Your great goodness
    and shall sing of Your righteousness.

The Lord is gracious and full of compassion,
    slow to anger, and great in mercy.

The Lord is good to all,
    and His compassion is over all His works.
10 All Your works shall praise You, O Lord,
    and Your godly ones shall bless You.
11 They shall speak of the glory of Your kingdom
    and talk of Your power,
12 to make known to people His mighty acts,
    and the glorious majesty of His kingdom.
13 Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
    and Your dominion endures throughout all generations.

14 The Lord upholds all who fall,
    and raises up all who are bowed down.
15 The eyes of all wait upon You,
    and You give them their food in due season.
16 You open Your hand
    and satisfy the desire of every living thing.

17 The Lord is righteous in all His ways
    and loving in all His works.
18 The Lord is near to all those who call upon Him,
    to all who call upon Him in truth.
19 He will fulfill the desire of those who fear Him;
    He also will hear their cry and will save them.
20 The Lord preserves all those who love Him,
    but all the wicked He will destroy.

21 My mouth shall speak the praise of the Lord,
    and let all people bless His holy name
    forever and ever.
