Hebrews 9

1 Had indeed therefore also the first (tabernacle *K*) regulations of worship and Holy [Place] earthly.

Now indeed even the first covenant had ordinances of divine service and an earthly sanctuary.

2 A tabernacle for was prepared the first [room] — in which [were] both the lampstand and the table and of the presentation the bread — which is named [the] Holy [Places].

For a tabernacle was prepared. In the first part were the lamp stand, the table, and the show bread, which is called the Holy Place.

3 Behind now the second veil [was] a tabernacle which is being named (the *o*) Holies (*o*) of Holies

After the second veil was the tabernacle which is called the Holy of Holies,

4 [the] golden having altar of incense and the ark of the covenant covered around in every part with gold, in which [was the] jar golden having the manna and the staff of Aaron which having budded and the tablets of the covenant;

having a golden altar of incense and the ark of the covenant overlaid on all sides with gold, in which was a golden pot holding the manna, Aaron’s rod that budded, and the tablets of the covenant;

5 Above then it [were the] cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat, concerning which not it is now [the time] to speak in detail.

and above it cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat, of which things we can’t speak now in detail.

6 These things now thus prepared into indeed the first tabernacle (at *N(K)O*) (all [times] *N(k)O*) enter the priests the sacred services accomplishing;

Now these things having been thus prepared, the priests go in continually into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the services,

7 [Enters] into however the second once in the year only the high priest not without blood which he offers for himself and the of the people sins of ignorance;

but into the second the high priest alone, once in the year, not without blood, which he offers for himself and for the errors of the people.

8 By this was signifying the Spirit Holy [that] not yet [that] not yet to have been made manifest the into the Holy [Places] a way while still the first tabernacle having a standing;

The Holy Spirit is indicating this, that the way into the Holy Place wasn’t yet revealed while the first tabernacle was still standing.

9 which [is] a symbol for the time which being present, in (which *N(k)O*) gifts both and sacrifices are offered not being able in regard to conscience to make perfect who is worshiping,

This is a symbol of the present age, where gifts and sacrifices are offered that are incapable, concerning the conscience, of making the worshiper perfect,

10 [consisting] only in foods and in drinks and in various washings, (and *ko*) (ordinances *N(k)O*) of [the] flesh until [the] time of reformation being imposed.

being only (with foods and drinks and various washings) fleshly ordinances, imposed until a time of reformation.

11 Christ however having appeared as high priest of the (having come *N(k)O*) good things through the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made by hands, That is not of this creation,

But Messiah having come as a high priest of the coming good things, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation,

12 nor through blood of goats and calves through however the own blood He entered once for all into the Holy [Places] eternal redemption having obtained. (aiōnios g166)

nor yet through the blood of goats and calves, but through his own blood, entered in once for all into the Holy Place, having obtained eternal redemption. (aiōnios g166)

13 If for the blood of goats and of bulls and [the] ashes of a heifer sprinkling the defiled it sanctifies for the of the flesh purification,

For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled, sanctify to the cleanness of the flesh,

14 how much more the blood of Christ, who through [the] Spirit eternal Himself offered unblemished to God, will purify the conscience (of us *N(K)O*) from dead works in order to serve God [the] living? (aiōnios g166)

how much more will the blood of Messiah, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without defect to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? (aiōnios g166)

15 And because of this of a covenant new [the] mediator He is, so that death having taken place for redemption of the under the first covenant transgressions the promise may receive those called of the eternal inheritance. (aiōnios g166)

For this reason he is the mediator of a new covenant, since a death has occurred for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first covenant, that those who have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance. (aiōnios g166)

16 Where for [there is] a will, [the] death [it is] necessary to establish of the [one] having made [it];

For where a last will and testament is, there must of necessity be the death of him who made it.

17 A will for after death [is] affirmed, since (otherwise otherwise *NK(o)*) it is in force when is living the [one] having made [it].

For a will is in force where there has been death, for it is never in force while he who made it lives.

18 wherefore neither the first apart from blood has been inaugurated.

Therefore even the first covenant has not been dedicated without blood.

19 When was being spoken for every commandment according to (the *no*) law under Moses to all the people, having taken the blood of calves and (*no*) of goats with water and wool scarlet and hyssop, itself both the book and all the people he sprinkled

For when every commandment had been spoken by Moses to all the people according to the Torah, he took the blood of the calves and the goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people,

20 saying; This [is] the blood of the covenant which commanded unto you God;

saying, “This is the blood of the covenant which God has commanded you.”

21 And the tabernacle then and all the vessels of the ministry with blood likewise he sprinkled.

He sprinkled the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry in the same way with the blood.

22 And almost with blood all things are purified according to the law and apart from blood-shedding not there is forgiveness.

According to the Torah, nearly everything is cleansed with blood, and apart from shedding of blood there is no remission.

23 [It was] necessary then [for] the indeed representations of the [things] in the heavens with these to be purified themselves however the heavenly things with better sacrifices than these.

It was necessary therefore that the copies of the things in the heavens should be cleansed with these, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.

24 Not for into made by hands has entered Holy [Places] (*k*) Christ, copies of the true [ones], but into itself heaven, now to appear in the presence of God for us;

For Messiah hasn’t entered into holy places made with hands, which are representations of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us;

25 nor that repeatedly He may offer Himself, just as the high priest enters into the Holy [Places] every year with [the] blood of another;

nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest enters into the holy place year by year with blood not his own,

26 Otherwise it was necessary for Him repeatedly to have suffered from [the] foundation of [the] world, (now *N(k)O*) however once in [the] consummation of the ages for [the] putting away (*no*) of sin through the sacrifice of Himself He has been revealed. (aiōn g165)

or else he must have suffered often since the foundation of the world. But now once at the end of the ages, he has been revealed to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. (aiōn g165)

27 And in as much as it is apportioned to men once to die after then this [to face] judgment,

Inasmuch as it is appointed for men to die once, and after this, judgment,

28 so (also *no*) Christ once having been offered in order of many to bear [the] sins for a second time apart from sin will appear to those Him awaiting for salvation.

so Messiah also, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin, but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.
