< Hebrews 8 >
1 Now the point of what we are saying is this: We have a high priest who has sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens.
ⲁ̅ⲡⲕⲉⲫⲁⲗⲁⲓⲟⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲛ̅ϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ. ⲟⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲛ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲓ̈ⲙⲓⲛⲉ. ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲧⲁϥϩⲙⲟⲟⲥ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲩⲛⲁⲙ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲑⲣⲟⲛⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲛⲟϭ ϩⲛ̅ⲙ̅ⲡⲏⲩⲉ.
2 He is a servant in the holy place, the true tabernacle that the Lord, not a man, set up.
ⲃ̅ⲡⲗⲓⲧⲟⲩⲣⲅⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲥⲕⲏⲛⲏ ⲙ̅ⲙⲉ. ⲧⲉⲛⲧⲁⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲡⲏⲥⲥⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲁⲛ.
3 For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices. Therefore it is necessary to have something to offer.
ⲅ̅ⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉϣⲁⲩⲕⲁⲑⲓⲥⲧⲁ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲧⲁⲗⲉⲇⲱⲣⲟⲛ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ϩⲓⲑⲩⲥⲓⲁ. ⲉⲩⲁⲛⲁⲅⲕⲏ ⲧⲉ ⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲕⲱ ⲛⲁϥ ⲙⲡⲉⲧϥ̅ⲛⲁⲧⲁⲗⲟϥ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈.
4 Now if Christ were on earth, he would not be a priest at all, since there are those who offer the gifts according to the law.
ⲇ̅ⲉⲛⲉϥϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲇⲉ ϩⲓϫⲙ̅ⲡⲕⲁϩ ⲡⲉ. ⲛⲉϥⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲏⲏⲃ ⲡⲉ. ⲉⲩϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲉⲧⲧⲁⲗⲟ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲇⲱⲣⲟⲛ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲡⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ.
5 They serve in a tabernacle that is a copy and shadow of the heavenly things. It is just as Moses was warned by God when he was about to construct the tabernacle: God said, “See that you make everything according to the pattern that was shown to you on the mountain.”
ⲉ̅ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧϣⲙ̅ϣⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲥⲙⲟⲧ ⲙⲛ̅ⲟⲩϩⲁⲓ̈ⲃⲉⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲛⲁⲧⲡⲉ. ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲑⲉ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙⲛ̅ⲙⲱⲩ̈ⲥⲏⲥ ⲉϥⲛⲁϫⲱⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲥⲕⲏⲛⲏ. ϭⲱϣⲧ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲉⲕⲉⲧⲁⲙⲓⲟ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲕⲁ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲡⲧⲩⲡⲟⲥ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲧⲟⲩⲟⲕ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲧⲟⲟⲩ.
6 But now Christ has received a much better ministry, just as he is also the mediator of a better covenant, which is based on better promises.
ⲋ̅ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥϫⲓ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛϣⲙ̅ϣⲉ ⲉⲩϣⲟⲃⲉ. ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲉⲡⲙⲉⲥⲓⲧⲏⲥ ⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲇⲓⲁⲑⲏⲕⲏ ⲉⲧⲥⲟⲧⲡ̅. ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲥⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲥ̅ ⲉϫⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲉⲣⲏⲧ ⲉⲩⲥⲟⲧⲡ̅.
7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no need for a second covenant.
ⲍ̅ⲉⲛⲉⲣⲉϯϣⲟⲣⲡ̅ ⲅⲁⲣ ϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲁϫⲛ̅ⲁⲣⲓⲕⲉ. ⲛⲉϥⲛⲁϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲡⲙⲁ ⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲉϩⲥⲛ̅ⲧⲉ.
8 For when God found fault with the people, he said, “See, the days are coming—says the Lord— when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah.
ⲏ̅ⲉϥϭⲛ̅ⲁⲣⲓⲕⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ϣⲁϥϫⲟⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓⲥϩⲏⲏⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲏⲩ ⲡⲉϫⲉⲡϫⲟⲓ̈ⲥ ⲧⲁϫⲱⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉϫⲙ̅ⲡⲏⲉⲓ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲥⲣⲁⲏⲗ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲏⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲇⲓⲁⲑⲏⲕⲏ ⲛ̅ⲃⲣ̅ⲣⲉ.
9 It will not be like the covenant that I made with their ancestors on the day that I took them by their hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt. For they did not carefully obey my covenant, and I disregarded them —says the Lord.
ⲑ̅ⲉⲛⲕⲁⲧⲁⲧⲇⲓⲁⲑⲏⲕⲏ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲁⲁⲥ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲉⲓⲟⲧⲉ. ⲛ̅ⲛⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩϭⲓϫ ⲉⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲕⲁϩ ⲛ̅ⲕⲏⲙⲉ. ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩϭⲱ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲇⲓⲁⲑⲏⲕⲏ. ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϩⲱ ⲁⲓ̈ⲁⲙⲉⲗⲉⲓ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲡⲉϫⲉⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ.
10 This is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days —says the Lord. I will put my laws into their minds, and I will also write them on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people.

11 They will not teach each one his neighbor and each one his brother, saying, 'Know the Lord.' For they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest.

12 For I will be merciful toward their evil deeds, and their sins I will not remember any longer.”

13 By calling this covenant “new,” he declared the first covenant to be old, and what has become old and obsolete will soon disappear.
