< Hebrews 10 >
1 For the law, having a shadow of the good to come, not the very image of the things, can never with the same sacrifices year by year, which they offer continually, make perfect those who draw near.
For the lawe which hath but the shadowe of good thynges to come and not the thynges in their awne fassion can never with ye sacryfises which they offer yere by yere continually make the comers thervnto parfayte.
2 Or else would not they have ceased to be offered, because the worshipers, having been once cleansed, would have had no more consciousness of sins?
For wolde not then those sacrifises have ceased to have bene offered because that the offerers once pourged shuld have had no moare conscieces of sinnes.
3 But in those sacrifices there is a yearly reminder of sins.
Neverthelesse in those sacrifises is ther mencion made of synnes every yeare.
4 For it is impossible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins.
For it is vnpossible that the bloud of oxen and of gotes shuld take awaye synnes.
5 Therefore when he comes into the world, he says, “You did not desire sacrifice and offering, but you prepared a body for me.
Wherfore when he commeth into the worlde he sayth: Sacrifice and offeringe thou woldest not have: but a bodie hast thou ordeyned me.
6 You had no pleasure in whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin.
In sacrifices and synne offerynges thou hast no lust.
7 Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come (in the scroll of the book it is written of me) to do your will, O God.’”
Then I sayde: Lo I come in the chefest of the boke it is written of me that I shuld doo thy will o god.
8 Previously saying, “Sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin you did not desire, neither had pleasure in them” (those which are offered according to the law),
Above when he had sayed sacrifice and offerynge and burnt sacrifices and synne offerynges thou woldest not have nether hast alowed (which yet are offered by the lawe)
9 then he has said, “Behold, I have come to do your will.” He takes away the first, that he may establish the second,
and then sayde: Lo I come to do thy will o god: he taketh awaye the fyrst to stablisshe the latter.
10 by which will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
By the which will we are sanctified by the offeringe of the body of Iesu Christe once for all.
11 Every priest indeed stands day by day serving and offering often the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins,
And every prest is redy dayly ministrynge and ofte tymes offereth one maner of offerynge which can never take awaye synnes.
12 but he, when he had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right hand of God,
But this man after he had offered one sacrifyce for synnes sat him doune for ever on the right honde of god
13 from that time waiting until his enemies are made the footstool of his feet.
and from hence forth tarieth till his foes be made his fotestole.
14 For by one offering he has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.
For with one offerynge hath he made parfecte for ever them yt are sanctified.
15 The Holy Spirit also testifies to us, for after saying,
And ye holy goost also beareth vs recorde of this even when he tolde before:
16 “This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days,” says the Lord, “I will put my laws on their heart, I will also write them on their mind;” then he says,
This is the testament that I will make vnto them after those dayes sayth the lorde. I will put my lawes in their hertes and in their mynde I will write them
17 “I will remember their sins and their iniquities no more.”
and their synnes and iniquyties will I remember no moare.
18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
And where remission of these thinges is there is no moare offerynge for synne.
19 Having therefore, brothers, boldness to enter into the holy place by the blood of Jesus,
Seynge brethren that by the meanes of the bloud of Iesu we maye be bolde to enter into that holy place
20 by the way which he dedicated for us, a new and living way, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh,
by the newe and livynge waye which he hath prepared for vs through the vayle that is to saye by his flesshe.
21 and having a great priest over God’s house,
And seynge also that we have an hye prest which is ruler over ye housse of god
22 let’s draw near with a true heart in fullness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and having our body washed with pure water,
let vs drawe nye with a true herte in a full fayth sprynckeled in oure hertes from an evyll conscience and wesshed in oure bodies with pure water
23 let’s hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering; for he who promised is faithful.
and let vs kepe the profession of oure hope with oute waveringe (for he is faythfull that promysed)
24 Let’s consider how to provoke one another to love and good works,
and let vs consyder one another to provoke vnto love and to good workes:
25 not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.
and let vs not forsake the felishippe that we have amoge oure selves as the maner of some is: but let vs exhorte one another and that so moche the more because ye se that the daye draweth nye.
26 For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more a sacrifice for sins,
For yf we synne willyngly after that we have receaved the knowledge of the trueth there remayneth no more sacrifice for synnes
27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fierceness of fire which will devour the adversaries.
but a fearfull lokynge for iudgement and violent fyre which shall devoure the adversaries
28 A man who disregards Moses’ law dies without compassion on the word of two or three witnesses.
He that despiseth Moses lawe dyeth with out mercy vnder two or thre witnesses.
29 How much worse punishment do you think he will be judged worthy of who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has counted the blood of the covenant with which he was sanctified an unholy thing, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?
Of how moche sorer punyshment suppose ye shall he be counted worthy which treadeth vnderfote the sonne of god: and counteth the bloude of the testament as an vnholy thynge wherwith he was sanctified and doth dishonoure to the sprete of grace.
30 For we know him who said, “Vengeance belongs to me. I will repay,” says the Lord. Again, “The Lord will judge his people.”
For we knowe him that hath sayde vengeaunce belongeth vnto me I will recompence sayth the lorde. And agayne: the lorde shall iudge his people.
31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
It is a fearfull thynge to faule into the hondes of the livynge God.
32 But remember the former days, in which, after you were enlightened, you endured a great struggle with sufferings:
Call to remebraunce the dayes that are passed in the which after ye had receaved light ye endured a greate fyght in adversities
33 partly, being exposed to both reproaches and oppressions, and partly, becoming partakers with those who were treated so.
partly whill all men wondred and gased at you for the shame and trioulacion that was done vnto you and partly whill ye became companyons of the which so passed their tyme.
34 For you both had compassion on me in my chains and joyfully accepted the plundering of your possessions, knowing that you have for yourselves a better possession and an enduring one in the heavens.
For ye suffered also with my bondes and toke a worth the spoylynge of youre goodes and that with gladnes knowynge in youre selves how that ye had in heven a better and an endurynge substaunce
35 Therefore do not throw away your boldness, which has a great reward.
Cast not awaye therfore youre confidence which hath great rewarde to recopence.
36 For you need endurance so that, having done the will of God, you may receive the promise.
For ye have nede of paciece that after ye have done ye will of god ye myght receave the promes.
37 “In a very little while, he who comes will come and will not wait.
For yet a very lytell whyle and he that shall come will come and will not tary.
38 But the righteous one will live by faith. If he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him.”
But the iust shall live by faith. And yf he withdrawe him silfe my soule shall have no pleasure in him.
39 But we are not of those who shrink back to destruction, but of those who have faith to the saving of the soul.
We are not whiche withdrawe oure selves vnto dampnacio but partayne to fayth to the wynnynge of the soule.
