1 For the Torah, having a shadow of the good to come, and not the image itself of the matters, was never able to make perfect those who draw near with the same slaughter offerings which they offer continually year by year.
2 Otherwise, would they not have ceased to be offered? Because those who served, once cleansed, would have had no more consciousness of sins.
3 But in those is a reminder of sins year by year.
4 For it is impossible for blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.
5 Therefore, coming into the world, He says, “Slaughtering and meal offering You did not desire, but a body You have prepared for Me.
6 “In burnt offerings even for sin You did not delight.
7 “Then I said, ‘See, I come – in the roll of the Book it has been written concerning Me – to do Your desire, O Elohim.’ ”
8 Saying above, “Slaughter and meal offering, and burnt offerings, even for sin You did not desire, nor delighted in,” which are offered according to the Torah,
9 then He said, “See, I come to do Your desire, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄.” He takes away the first to establish the second.
10 By that desire we have been qadosh through the offering of the body of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 ha’Mashiaḥ once for all.
11 And indeed every kohĕn stands day by day doing service, and repeatedly offering the same slaughter offerings which are never able to take away sins.
12 But He, having offered one slaughter offering for sins for all time, sat down at the right hand of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄,
13 waiting from that time onward until His enemies are made a footstool for His feet.
14 For by one offering He has perfected for all time those who are being qadosh.
15 And the Ruaḥ ha’Qodesh also witnesses to us, for after having said before,
16 “This is the Covenant that I shall make with them after those days, says 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, giving My Laws into their hearts, and in their minds I shall write them,”
17 and, “Their sins and their lawlessnesses I shall remember no more.”
18 Now where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer a slaughter offering for sin.
19 So, brothers, having boldness to enter into the Miqdash by the blood of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏,
20 by a new and living way which He instituted for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh,
21 and a Kohĕn ha’Gadol over the House of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄,
22 let us draw near with a true heart in completeness of belief, having our hearts sprinkled from a wicked conscience and our bodies washed with clean water.
23 Let us hold fast the confession of our expectation without yielding, for He who promised is trustworthy.
24 And let us be concerned for one another in order to stir up love and good works,
25 not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging, and so much more as you see the Day coming near.
26 For if we sin purposely after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a slaughter offering for sins,
27 but some fearsome anticipation of judgment, and a fierce fire which is about to consume the opponents.
28 Anyone who has disregarded the Torah of Mosheh dies without compassion on the witness of two or three witnesses.
29 How much worse punishment do you think shall he deserve who has trampled the Bĕn of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 underfoot, counted the blood of the Covenant by which he was qadosh as common, and insulted the Ruaḥ of favour?
30 For we know Him who has said, “Vengeance is Mine, I shall repay, says 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄.” And again, “𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 shall judge His people.”
31 It is fearsome to fall into the hands of the living Elohim.
32 But remember the former days, when, after you were enlightened, you endured a great struggle with sufferings.
33 On the one hand you were exposed to reproaches and pressures, and on the other hand you became sharers with those who were so treated,
34 for you sympathised with me in my chains, and you accepted with joy the seizure of your possessions, knowing that you have a better and a lasting possession for yourselves in the shamayim.
35 Do not, then, lose your boldness, which has great reward.
36 For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the desire of Elohim, you receive the promise:
37 “For yet a little while – He who is coming shall come and shall not delay.”
38 “But the righteous shall live by belief, but if anyone draws back, My being has no pleasure in him.”
39 But we are not of those who draw back to destruction, but of belief to the preservation of ḥai.
