Hebrews 8
1 The main point of [all] that [I] have written is that we have a Supreme Priest like that. He has sat down to rule [MTY] with God [EUP] at the place of greatest honor in heaven.
A glavno u ovom izlaganju jest: takva imamo Velikog svećenika koji sjede zdesna prijestolja Veličanstva na nebesima
2 He ministers in the Most Holy Place, that is, in the true place [of worship in heaven]. That is a place that [Moses’] tent [represented]. The Lord set up the true place of worship. No human [set it up].
kao bogoslužnik Svetinje i Šatora istinskoga što ga podiže Gospodin, a ne čovjek.
3 Every Supreme Priest was appointed {[God] appointed every Supreme Priest} to offer [to God] gifts and sacrifices [for people who sinned]. So, since [Christ became a Supreme Priest], he also had to offer something.
Doista, svaki se veliki svećenik postavlja da prinosi darove i žrtve. Odatle je potrebno da i on ima što bi prinio.
4 Since there are already [Jewish] priests who offer gifts as God’s laws [require], if Christ were [now living] on the earth, he would not be a Supreme Priest.
Svakako, da je na zemlji, ne bi bio svećenik jer postoje oni koji po Zakonu prinose darove.
5 The [Jewish] priests perform rituals which are only a model [DOU] of [what Christ would do in heaven] [MTY]. What [God] told Moses when Moses was about to set up the tent [for worshipping him supports the idea that those rituals were only a model. God said], “Be sure that you [(sg)] make everything according to the model that I showed you on [Sinai] Mountain!”
Oni služe slici i sjeni onoga nebeskoga, kako je upućen Mojsije kad se spremao praviti šator: Pazi, veli doista, načini sve po praliku koji ti je pokazan na brdu.
6 But now as it is, [Christ] ministers in a more excellent way [than the Jewish priests do]. Likewise, the [new] covenant that he established [between God and people] is better [than the old one. When the new covenant was established] {[God established the new covenant]}, he promised us better things [than the laws that God gave Moses did].
Ovako mu pak dopalo uzvišenije bogosluženje koliko je Posrednik boljega Saveza, koji je uzakonjen na boljim obećanjima.
7 If that first covenant had been perfectly adequate [LIT], God would not have thought that he needed another [covenant/agreement to replace it]. But [it was not adequate, so he needed a new one].
Da je, zbilja, onaj prvi bio besprijekoran, ne bi se drugome tražilo mjesto.
8 Because God declared [that the Israelites] were guilty [of not obeying the first covenant, he wanted a new covenant. This is what] ([a prophet/Jeremiah]) [wrote about that]: The Lord says, “Listen! There will soon be a time when I will make a new covenant with the people [MTY] of Israel and the people [MTY] of Judah.
Doista, kudeći ih veli: Evo dolaze dani - govori Gospodin - kad ću s domom Izraelovim i s domom Judinim dovršiti novi Savez.
9 That covenant will not be like the covenant that I made with their ancestors when I led them out of Egypt [MET] [like a father leads a child] by the hand. They did not continue to [obey] my covenant, so I rejected them,” says the Lord.
Ne Savez kakav učinih s ocima njihovim u dan kad ih uzeh za ruku da ih izvedem iz zemlje egipatske jer oni ne ustrajaše u mom Savezu pa i ja zanemarih njih - govori Gospodin.
10 “This is the covenant that I will make with the Israelites [MTY], after [the first covenant has ended] [MTY],” says the Lord: “I will enable them to understand my laws [MTY], and I will enable them to obey them (OR, truly know them) [MTY] sincerely. I will be their God, and they will be my people [DOU].
Nego, ovo je Savez kojim ću se svezati s domom Izraelovim nakon ovih dana - govori Gospodin: Zakone ću svoje staviti u dušu njihovu i upisati ih u njihova srca. I bit ću Bog njihov, a oni narod moj.
11 [As a result], no one will [need to] teach a fellow citizen or tell his fellow kinsmen, ‘[You need to] know the Lord,’ because all [my people] will know me: [My people] of every status [will know me].
I neće više nitko učiti sugrađanina i nitko brata svoga govoreći: “Spoznaj Gospodina”, ta svi će me poznavati, malo i veliko,
12 I will mercifully [forgive them for] the wicked things they have done. I will no longer [consider] that [they are guilty for] [DOU] [their] sins.”
jer ću se smilovati bezakonjima njihovim i grijeha se njihovih neću više spominjati.
13 Since God spoke about a new [covenant], he considered that the first [covenant] was no longer in use, and that it would soon disappear, just like [anything that] gets old [will disappear] [MET, DOU].
Kad veli novi, ostari onaj prvi. Što pak stÓari i dotrajava, blizu je nestanku.
