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,
κεφαλαιον δε επι τοισ λεγομενοισ τοιουτον εχομεν αρχιερεα οσ εκαθισεν εν δεξια του θρονου τησ μεγαλωσυνησ εν τοισ ουρανοισ
2 a servant of the sanctuary and of the true tabernacle which the Lord pitched, not man.
των αγιων λειτουργοσ και τησ σκηνησ τησ αληθινησ ην επηξεν ο κυριοσ και ουκ ανθρωποσ
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.
πασ γαρ αρχιερευσ εισ το προσφερειν δωρα τε και θυσιασ καθισταται οθεν αναγκαιον εχειν τι και τουτον ο προσενεγκη
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,
ει μεν γαρ ην επι γησ ουδ αν ην ιερευσ οντων των ιερεων των προσφεροντων κατα τον νομον τα δωρα
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.”
οιτινεσ υποδειγματι και σκια λατρευουσιν των επουρανιων καθωσ κεχρηματισται μωυσησ μελλων επιτελειν την σκηνην ορα γαρ φησιν ποιησεισ παντα κατα τον τυπον τον δειχθεντα σοι εν τω ορει
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.
νυνι δε διαφορωτερασ τετυχεν λειτουργιασ οσω και κρειττονοσ εστιν διαθηκησ μεσιτησ ητισ επι κρειττοσιν επαγγελιαισ νενομοθετηται
7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then no place would have been sought for a second.
ει γαρ η πρωτη εκεινη ην αμεμπτοσ ουκ αν δευτερασ εζητειτο τοποσ
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;
μεμφομενοσ γαρ αυτοισ λεγει ιδου ημεραι ερχονται λεγει κυριοσ και συντελεσω επι τον οικον ισραηλ και επι τον οικον ιουδα διαθηκην καινην
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 did not continue in my covenant, and I disregarded them,” says the Lord.
ου κατα την διαθηκην ην εποιησα τοισ πατρασιν αυτων εν ημερα επιλαβομενου μου τησ χειροσ αυτων εξαγαγειν αυτουσ εκ γησ αιγυπτου οτι αυτοι ουκ ενεμειναν εν τη διαθηκη μου καγω ημελησα αυτων λεγει κυριοσ
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.
οτι αυτη η διαθηκη ην διαθησομαι τω οικω ισραηλ μετα τασ ημερασ εκεινασ λεγει κυριοσ διδουσ νομουσ μου εισ την διανοιαν αυτων και επι καρδιασ αυτων επιγραψω αυτουσ και εσομαι αυτοισ εισ θεον και αυτοι εσονται μοι εισ λαον
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.
και ου μη διδαξωσιν εκαστοσ τον πολιτην αυτου και εκαστοσ τον αδελφον αυτου λεγων γνωθι τον κυριον οτι παντεσ ειδησουσιν με απο μικρου αυτων εωσ μεγαλου αυτων
12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness. I will remember their sins and lawless deeds no more.”
οτι ιλεωσ εσομαι ταισ αδικιαισ αυτων και των αμαρτιων αυτων και των ανομιων αυτων ου μη μνησθω ετι
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.
εν τω λεγειν καινην πεπαλαιωκεν την πρωτην το δε παλαιουμενον και γηρασκον εγγυσ αφανισμου
