⁶⁸ “ Blessed eulogētos be the Lord kyrios · ho God theos of ho Israel Israēl, for hoti he has visited episkeptomai and kai brought poieō redemption lytrōsis to ho his autos people laos. ⁶⁹ For kai he has raised egeirō up a horn keras of salvation sōtēria for us hēmeis in en the house oikos of David Dauid his autos servant pais, ⁷⁰ just kathōs as he spoke laleō through dia the mouth stoma of ho his autos holy hagios prophets prophētēs from apo of old aiōn, ⁷¹ that we should be saved sōtēria from ek our hēmeis enemies echthros, and kai from ek the hand cheir of all pas who ho hate miseō us hēmeis. ⁷² He has done poieō this to show the mercy eleos promised to meta · ho our hēmeis fathers patēr, and kai to remember mimnēskomai his autos holy hagios covenant diathēkē, ⁷³ the oath horkos that hos he swore omnyō to pros our hēmeis father patēr Abraham Abraam, · ho to ho grant didōmi us hēmeis ⁷⁴ that we, being rescued rhyomai from ek the hand cheir of enemies echthros, might serve latreuō him autos without fear aphobōs, ⁷⁵ in en holiness hosiotēs and kai righteousness dikaiosynē before enōpion him autos all pas · ho our hēmeis days hēmera. ⁷⁶ And kai you sy, · de child paidion, will be called kaleō prophet prophētēs of the Most hypsistos High ; for gar you will go proporeuomai before enōpion the Lord kyrios to prepare hetoimazō his autos ways hodos, ⁷⁷ to ho give didōmi his autos people laos the knowledge gnōsis of salvation sōtēria · ho by en the forgiveness aphesis of their autos sins hamartia, ⁷⁸ because dia of the tender splanchnon mercies eleos of our hēmeis God theos, by en which hos the rising sun anatolē of ek heaven hypsos will visit episkeptomai us hēmeis, ⁷⁹ to shine epiphainō on those ho who sit kathēmai in en darkness skotos and kai the shadow skia of death thanatos, to ho guide kateuthunō · ho our hēmeis feet pous into eis the way hodos of peace eirēnē.”

²³ Thus oun it was necessary anankē that · ho earthly copies hypodeigma of the ho · ho heavenly ouranos realities be purified katharizō by these houtos rites, but de the ho heavenly realities epouranios themselves autos with better kreittōn sacrifices thusia than para these houtos. ²⁴ For gar Christ Christos did eiserchomai not ou enter eiserchomai a sanctuary hagios made with hands cheiropoiētos, that was a mere copy antitypos of the ho true one alēthinos, but alla into eis heaven ouranos itself autos, · ho now nyn to appear emphanizō in the ho presence prosōpon of ho God theos on hyper our hēmeis behalf. ²⁵ Nor oude was it to hina offer prospherō himself heautou repeatedly pollakis, as hōsper the ho high priest archiereus enters eiserchomai eis the ho Most Holy Place hagios every kata year eniautos with en blood haima not his own allotrios, ²⁶ for then epei he autos would have had dei to suffer paschō again and again pollakis since apo the foundation katabolē of the world kosmos. But de as it is nyni, he has appeared phaneroō once for all hapax at epi the climax synteleia of the ho ages aiōn to eis put away athetēsis · ho sin hamartia by dia · ho his autos sacrifice thusia. ²⁷ And kai just kata as hosos it is appointed apokeimai for ho mortals anthrōpos to die apothnēskō once hapax, and de after meta that houtos to experience judgment krisis, ²⁸ so houtōs also kai · ho Christ Christos, after having been offered prospherō once hapax to eis bear anapherō the sins hamartia of many polys, will appear horaō a second time ek to those ho who are eagerly awaiting apekdechomai him autos, without chōris reference to sin hamartia but for eis salvation sōtēria.
