Hebrews 8
1 Now in the things which we are saying, the main point is this: we have such a high priest, who sat down on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,
Poglavitno pa pri tem, kar pravimo: višjega duhovnika imamo takega, kateri sedí na desnici prestola veličastva v nebesih;
2 a servant of the sanctuary and of the true tabernacle which the Lord pitched, not man.
Oskrbnik svetišča in šatora pravega, katerega je postavil Gospod in ne človek.
3 For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices. Therefore it is necessary that this high priest also have something to offer.
Kajti vsak višji duhovnik se postavlja, da prinaša darí in žrtve, zato je potreba, da ima tudi tá kaj, kar bi prinašal.
4 For if he were on earth, he would not be a priest at all, seeing there are priests who offer the gifts according to the law,
Ako bi namreč bil na zemlji, še duhovnik bi ne bil, ker so duhovniki, da dari darujejo po postavi,
5 who serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly things, even as Moses was warned by God when he was about to make the tabernacle, for he said, “See, you shall make everything according to the pattern that was shown to you on the mountain.”
Kateri služijo po podobi in senci stvarî nebeških, kakor je Mojzes ukaz prejel, ko je napravljal šator: "Glej", pravi namreč, "da narediš vse po zgledu pokazanem ti na gori.
6 But now he has obtained a more excellent ministry, by as much as he is also the mediator of a better covenant, which on better promises has been given as law.
Sedaj pa je dobil odličnejšo službo, za kolikor je tudi boljše zaveze srednik, katera je ustanovljena na boljših obljubah.
7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then no place would have been sought for a second.
Ako bi bila namreč ona prva bila brez pogreška, ne bi se iskalo drugi mesto.
8 For finding fault with them, he said, “Behold, the days are coming”, says the Lord, “that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah;
Kajti grajajoč jim pravi: "Glej, dnevi pridejo, govori Gospod, in s hišo Izraelovo in s hišo Judovo sklenem novo zavezo;
9 not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; for they didn’t continue in my covenant, and I disregarded them,” says the Lord.
Ne po zavezi, katero sem storil z njih očeti, tisti dan, ko sem zgrabil njih roko, da bi jih izpeljal iz zemlje Egiptovske; ker oni niso ostali v zavezi moji, in jaz sem jih v nemar pustil, govori Gospod;
10 “For 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 mind; I will also write them on their heart. I will be their God, and they will be my people.
Ker to je zaveza, katero bodem sklenil s hišo Izraelovo, po tistih dnevih, govori Gospod: Postave svoje dam v njih misli, in v srca njih jih zapišem; in bodem jim za Boga, in oni mi bodejo za ljudstvo.
11 They will not teach every man his fellow citizen and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for all will know me, from their least to their greatest.
In ne učé naj vsak svojega bližnjega, in vsak svojega brata, rekoč: Spoznavaj Gospoda; ker poznali me bodo vsi, od njih malega do njih velikega;
12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness. I will remember their sins and lawless deeds no more.”
Ker milosten bodem njih krivicam, in njih grehov in pregreškov njih ne bodem se več spominjal."
13 In that he says, “A new covenant”, he has made the first obsolete. But that which is becoming obsolete and grows aged is near to vanishing away.
Ker pravi: "Novo," ostaral je prvo; kar pa je ostarano in se stara, je skoraj minilo.
