Berean Standard Bible
For the law having
a shadow of the good `
things '
to come, not the very
image
of
the
things,
can never with
the same sacrifices year by
year, which
they
offer
continually,
make perfect them
that
draw nigh
.
For the law is
only
a shadow of the good things to come, not the realities
themselves.
It
can never ,
by
the same sacrifices offered
year after
year, make perfect those
who
draw near
to
worship
.
Else
would they
not have ceased to
be
offered
? because
the worshippers,
having
been once
cleansed, would have
had
no more
consciousness
of sins.
If
it
could,
would not the
offerings
have ceased? For
the worshipers
would
have
been cleansed once
for
all
, and
would no longer
have
felt
the
guilt
of their
sins.
But
in
those `
sacrifices '
there
is
a
remembrance
made
of sins year
by
year.
Instead,
those sacrifices are
an
annual
reminder
of sins ,
For
it is impossible that
the blood of bulls and goats should
take away sins.
because
it is impossible for
the blood of bulls and goats to
take away sins.
Wherefore
when he
cometh
into the world, he saith,
Sacrifice and offering thou
wouldest
not, But a body didst
thou
prepare
for me ;
Therefore,
when Christ
came
into the world, He said:
“
Sacrifice and offering You
did
not desire
, but a body You
prepared
for Me .
In whole
burnt offerings and `sacrifices'
for
sin thou
hadst
no pleasure:
In burnt offerings and sin offerings
You
took
no delight.
Then said
I ,
Lo
, I am come
(In
the
roll
of
the
book
it is written of
me )
To do thy
will, O God.
Then I said
, ‘Here
I am ,
it is written about
Me in
the
scroll:
I
have
come
to do Your
will, O God. ’”
Saying
above, Sacrifices and offerings and
whole
burnt offerings and `sacrifices'
for
sin thou
wouldest
not, neither
hadst
pleasure
therein
( the
which
are offered according to the law) ,
In
the
passage
above He
says
, “
Sacrifices and offerings ,
burnt offerings and sin offerings
You
did
not desire
, nor
did
You
delight
in
them”
( although
they
are offered according to the law) .
then hath
he said,
Lo
, I am come to do thy
will. He taketh
away the first ,
that
he
may
establish the second.
Then He adds
, “Here
I am ,
I
have
come to do Your
will. ”
He takes
away the first to
establish the second.

of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

priest
indeed
standeth
day by
day ministering
and offering
oftentimes
the same sacrifices, the
which can never take away sins :

day every
priest
stands
to
minister
and to
offer
again

ever
, sat down on
the right hand of God ;

Priest
had offered for
all
time
one sacrifice for sins, He
sat down at
the right hand of God .
henceforth
expecting
till
his enemies be made the
footstool of
his feet .

that
time,
He
waits
for
His enemies to
be made a
footstool for
His feet ,
For
by one
offering he hath
perfected
for ever
them
that

witness
to us ;

to us about

First
He says:
This is the covenant that
I will make with them After those days, saith
the Lord :
I will put my laws on
their heart,
And upon
their
mind
also
will
I
write
them ;
`then
saith
he,'
“
This is the covenant I will make with them after those days, declares
the Lord .
I will put My laws in
their hearts
and inscribe
them on
their
minds.”
And
their sins and their
iniquities
will
I remember no more.
Then
He
adds:
“
Their sins and lawless
acts
I will
remember no more. ”

more
offering for sin.

where these have
been
forgiven
, an
offering for sin is
no
longer
needed
.
Having
therefore, brethren
, boldness
to enter into
the holy place by the blood of Jesus,
Therefore, brothers
, since
we
have
confidence
to enter the Most
Holy Place by the blood of Jesus,
by the way
which
he
dedicated
for
us,
a
new and living way ,
through the veil,
that
is
to
say,
his flesh;
by the new and living way opened
for
us
through the curtain
of
His body,
and `having'
a great priest over the house of God ;
and since
we
have
a great priest over the house of God ,
let us draw near with a true
heart in fulness
of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an
evil
conscience :
and having
our body
washed with pure water ,
let us draw near with a sincere
heart in full
assurance
of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to
cleanse
us
from a
guilty
conscience and our bodies
washed with pure water .

the confession
of
our
hope that
it
waver
not;
for he is faithful that
promised:

one another on
to love and good deeds.

our
own
assembling
together, as the
custom
of
some is
, but exhorting
`
one another ';
and so
much
the more ,
as ye
see the day drawing
nigh
.
Let
us
not neglect
meeting
together, as some have
made
a
habit
, but let
us
encourage
one another ,
and all
the more as you
see the Day approaching
.
For
if we sin
wilfully
after that
we have received the knowledge of the truth, there
remaineth
no more
a
sacrifice for sins,
If we deliberately
go
on
sinning
after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no further
sacrifice for sins remains
,
but a certain
fearful expectation of judgment ,
and a
fierceness
of fire which
shall
devour
the
adversaries.
but only
a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging
fire that
will
consume
all
adversaries.
A
man
that
hath
set
at
nought
Moses
law dieth
without compassion
on `
the word
of '
two or three witnesses :
Anyone
who
rejected
the
law of
Moses
died
without mercy
on the testimony
of two or three witnesses .
of
how much sorer
punishment,
think ye,
shall
he
be judged
worthy,
who hath
trodden
under
foot
the Son of God, and
hath
counted
the blood of the covenant wherewith
he
was
sanctified an
unholy
thing
, and hath
done
despite
unto
the Spirit of grace?
How much more
severely
do
you
think one
deserves
to
be punished
who has
trampled
on
the Son of God, profaned
the blood of the covenant that
sanctified him
, and insulted
the Spirit of grace?
For we know him that
said, Vengeance belongeth
unto
me,
I will recompense.
And again, The Lord shall
judge his people.
For we know Him who
said, “
Vengeance is
Mine;
I will repay,”
and again, “
The Lord will
judge His people. ”

call
to
remembrance
the former
days ,
in
which,
after
ye
were enlightened
, ye
endured a great conflict of sufferings;

the early
days that
you
were in
the
light.
In

days

partly,
being
made
a
gazingstock
both
by
reproaches
and afflictions
; and
partly,
becoming
partakers
with them
that
were so used
.
Sometimes
you
were
publicly
exposed
to
ridicule
and persecution
; at
other
times
you
were
partners
with those
who
were so treated
.
For
ye
both
had
compassion
on
them
that
were
in bonds,
and took
joyfully the spoiling
of you
possessions
, knowing that ye
have
for
yourselves a better possession
and an
abiding
one
.
You
sympathized
with
those
in prison
and joyfully accepted
the confiscation
of your
property
, knowing that you
yourselves had
a better and permanent
possession
.
Cast
not away therefore
your boldness,
which
hath
great recompense
of
reward.
So
do
not throw
away your confidence;
it
holds
a
great reward.
For
ye
have
need of
patience
, that ,
having
done the will of God, ye
may
receive the
promise
.
You
need to
persevere
, so
that after
you
have
done the will of God, you
will
receive what
He
has
promised
.
For yet
a very
little while, He that
cometh
shall
come ,
and shall
not tarry
.
For ,
“In
just
a little while, He who
is
coming
will
come and will
not delay
.
But my righteous one shall
live by faith :
And if he shrink
back, my
soul
hath
no pleasure in him.
But My righteous one will
live by faith ;
and if he shrinks
back, I
will
take
no pleasure in him. ”
But we are not of them
that
shrink back unto
perdition;
but of them
that
have faith unto
the
saving
of
the
soul
.
But we are not of those
who
shrink back and
are
destroyed,
but of those
who
have faith and
preserve
their
souls
.
