Hebrews 10
1 For the Law, being only a shadow of the good things to come, and not their very substance, its priests cannot with the same sacrifice which year after year they offer continually, make perfect those who draw near.
σκιαν γαρ εχων ο νομος των μελλοντων αγαθων ουκ αυτην την εικονα των πραγματων κατ ενιαυτον ταις αυταις θυσιαις ας προσφερουσιν εις το διηνεκες ουδεποτε δυναται τους προσερχομενους τελειωσαι
2 Otherwise would they not have ceased to be offered? Because the worshippers having been once cleansed, would have had no more consciousness of sin.
επει ουκ αν επαυσαντο προσφερομεναι δια το μηδεμιαν εχειν ετι συνειδησιν αμαρτιων τους λατρευοντας απαξ κεκαθαρμενους
3 But on the other hand, in these sacrifices sins are called to memory, year after year.
αλλ εν αυταις αναμνησις αμαρτιων κατ ενιαυτον
4 For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sin.
αδυνατον γαρ αιμα ταυρων και τραγων αφαιρειν αμαρτιας
5 It is for this reason that the Christ, on coming into the world, declared. Sacrifice and offerings thou dost not desire, But a body didst thou prepare for me;
διο εισερχομενος εις τον κοσμον λεγει θυσιαν και προσφοραν ουκ ηθελησας σωμα δε κατηρτισω μοι
6 In whole burnt offerings and sin offerings Thou hast taken no pleasure.
ολοκαυτωματα και περι αμαρτιας ουκ ευδοκησας
7 Then I said, "I am come - in the roll of the book it is written of me- -To do thy will, O God."
τοτε ειπον ιδου ηκω εν κεφαλιδι βιβλιου γεγραπται περι εμου του ποιησαι ο θεος το θελημα σου
8 First when it is said, Thou hast no longing for, thou takest no delight in Sacrifices and offerings, or whole burnt offerings and sin offerings,
ανωτερον λεγων οτι θυσιαν και προσφοραν και ολοκαυτωματα και περι αμαρτιας ουκ ηθελησας ουδε ευδοκησας αιτινες κατα τον νομον προσφερονται
9 (offerings regularly made under the law), and then it is added, Lo, I come to do thy will, he does away with the first, in order that he may establish the second.
τοτε ειρηκεν ιδου ηκω του ποιησαι ο θεος το θελημα σου αναιρει το πρωτον ινα το δευτερον στηση
10 And it is by this will that we have been sanctified by the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
εν ω θεληματι ηγιασμενοι εσμεν οι δια της προσφορας του σωματος του ιησου χριστου εφαπαξ
11 For while every priest stands, day after day, at his ministrations, and many times repeats the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins,
και πας μεν ιερευς εστηκεν καθ ημεραν λειτουργων και τας αυτας πολλακις προσφερων θυσιας αιτινες ουδεποτε δυνανται περιελειν αμαρτιας
12 this Priest, after offering one Sacrifice for sins, sat down forever on God’s right hand;
αυτος δε μιαν υπερ αμαρτιων προσενεγκας θυσιαν εις το διηνεκες εκαθισεν εν δεξια του θεου
13 henceforth waiting until his enemies be put as the footstool of his feet.
το λοιπον εκδεχομενος εως τεθωσιν οι εχθροι αυτου υποποδιον των ποδων αυτου
14 For by one single offering he has perfected forever those whom he is sanctifying.
μια γαρ προσφορα τετελειωκεν εις το διηνεκες τους αγιαζομενους
15 And the Holy Spirit also gives his testimony, when he said.
μαρτυρει δε ημιν και το πνευμα το αγιον μετα γαρ το προειρηκεναι
16 "This is the covenant I will make with them After those days," says the Lord. "I will set my laws upon their hearts, And I will inscribe them on their minds."
αυτη η διαθηκη ην διαθησομαι προς αυτους μετα τας ημερας εκεινας λεγει κυριος διδους νομους μου επι καρδιας αυτων και επι των διανοιων αυτων επιγραψω αυτους
17 Then he adds, And their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.
και των αμαρτιων αυτων και των ανομιων αυτων ου μη μνησθω ετι
18 But when these have been remitted, there is no more any offering for sin.
οπου δε αφεσις τουτων ουκετι προσφορα περι αμαρτιας
19 Since, then, we have a cheerful confidence, brothers, to enter into the Holiest by the blood of Jesus,
εχοντες ουν αδελφοι παρρησιαν εις την εισοδον των αγιων εν τω αιματι ιησου
20 by the way which he dedicated for us, that new and living way, through the veil (that is, his flesh);
ην ενεκαινισεν ημιν οδον προσφατον και ζωσαν δια του καταπετασματος τουτεστιν της σαρκος αυτου
21 and since we have a great High Priest over the house of God;
και ιερεα μεγαν επι τον οικον του θεου
22 let us draw near with a true heart, in full assurance of faith, our hearts sprinkled from and evil conscience, and our bodies bathed in pure water.
προσερχωμεθα μετα αληθινης καρδιας εν πληροφορια πιστεως ερραντισμενοι τας καρδιας απο συνειδησεως πονηρας και λελουμενοι το σωμα υδατι καθαρω
23 Let us hold fast the confession of our hope, unwavering (for He is faithful who promised);
κατεχωμεν την ομολογιαν της ελπιδος ακλινη πιστος γαρ ο επαγγειλαμενος
24 and let us consider one another, to provoke unto love and good works;
και κατανοωμεν αλληλους εις παροξυσμον αγαπης και καλων εργων
25 not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the custom of some, but exhorting one another; all the more as you behold the Day drawing near.
μη εγκαταλειποντες την επισυναγωγην εαυτων καθως εθος τισιν αλλα παρακαλουντες και τοσουτω μαλλον οσω βλεπετε εγγιζουσαν την ημεραν
26 For if we sin wilfully, after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains any other sacrifice for sins,
εκουσιως γαρ αμαρτανοντων ημων μετα το λαβειν την επιγνωσιν της αληθειας ουκετι περι αμαρτιων απολειπεται θυσια
27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fiery indignation which is about to devour the adversaries.
φοβερα δε τις εκδοχη κρισεως και πυρος ζηλος εσθιειν μελλοντος τους υπεναντιους
28 Any one who set at naught the law of Moses was put to death without pity, on the testimony of two or three witnesses.
αθετησας τις νομον μωσεως χωρις οικτιρμων επι δυσιν η τρισιν μαρτυσιν αποθνησκει
29 How much surer, think you, will be the punishment of one who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has profaned that covenant blood with which he was sanctified, and has done despite to the spirit of grace?
ποσω δοκειτε χειρονος αξιωθησεται τιμωριας ο τον υιον του θεου καταπατησας και το αιμα της διαθηκης κοινον ηγησαμενος εν ω ηγιασθη και το πνευμα της χαριτος ενυβρισας
30 For we know Him who said, Vengeance is mine, I will repay, and again, The Lord will judge his people.
οιδαμεν γαρ τον ειποντα εμοι εκδικησις εγω ανταποδωσω λεγει κυριος και παλιν κυριος κρινει τον λαον αυτου
31 IT IS A FEARFUL THING TO FALL INTO THE HANDS OF THE LIVING GOD!
φοβερον το εμπεσειν εις χειρας θεου ζωντος
32 But ever call to mind the former days, in which, after having been enlightened, you endured a great conflict of sufferings;
αναμιμνησκεσθε δε τας προτερον ημερας εν αις φωτισθεντες πολλην αθλησιν υπεμεινατε παθηματων
33 partly by being made a public spectacle in reproaches and afflictions, and partly by sharing the fortunes of those that were so used.
τουτο μεν ονειδισμοις τε και θλιψεσιν θεατριζομενοι τουτο δε κοινωνοι των ουτως αναστρεφομενων γενηθεντες
34 For you did sympathize with the prisoners, and you did take joyfully the confiscation of your goods; conscious that you had for yourselves greater, even lasting possessions.
και γαρ τοις δεσμοις μου συνεπαθησατε και την αρπαγην των υπαρχοντων υμων μετα χαρας προσεδεξασθε γινωσκοντες εχειν εν εαυτοις κρειττονα υπαρξιν εν ουρανοις και μενουσαν
35 Now do not fling away your bold confidence, for it has a great recompense of reward.
μη αποβαλητε ουν την παρρησιαν υμων ητις εχει μισθαποδοσιαν μεγαλην
36 For you need stedfastness, so that after having done the will of God, you may receive the promise,
υπομονης γαρ εχετε χρειαν ινα το θελημα του θεου ποιησαντες κομισησθε την επαγγελιαν
37 For yet a very, very little while, and then The Coming One will have come, without delay.
ετι γαρ μικρον οσον οσον ο ερχομενος ηξει και ου χρονιει
38 But it is by faith that my Righteous One will live, And if he draws back, my soul takes no pleasure in him.
ο δε δικαιος εκ πιστεως ζησεται και εαν υποστειληται ουκ ευδοκει η ψυχη μου εν αυτω
39 "But we are not of defections unto perdition, but of faith unto the gaining of the soul."
ημεις δε ουκ εσμεν υποστολης εις απωλειαν αλλα πιστεως εις περιποιησιν ψυχης
