Hebrews 9

1 That fyrst tabernacle verely had ordinaunces and servynges of god and wordly holynes.

Certainly, the former also had the justifications of worship and a holy place for that age.

2 For there was a fore tabernacle made wherin was the candlesticke and the table and the shewe breed which is called wholy.

For a tabernacle was made at first, in which were the lampstand, and the table, and the bread of the Presence, which is called Holy.

3 But with in the secode vayle was ther a tabernacle which is called holiest of all

Then, beyond the second veil, was the tabernacle, which is called the Holy of Holies,

4 which had the golden senser and the arcke of the testamet overlayde round about with golde wherin was the golden pot with manna and Aarons rodde that spronge and the tables of the testament.

having a golden censer, and the ark of the testament, covered all around and on every part with gold, in which was a golden urn containing manna, and the rod of Aaron which had blossomed, and the tablets of the testament.

5 Over the arcke were the cherubis of glory shadowynge the seate of grace. Of which thynges we wyll not now speake perticularly.

And over the ark were the Cherubim of glory, overshadowing the propitiatory. There is not enough time to speak about each of these things.

6 When these thynges were thus ordeyned the prestes went all wayes into the fyrst tabernacle and executed the service of god.

Yet truly, once such things were placed together, in the first part of the tabernacle, the priests were, indeed, continually entering, so as to carry out the duties of the sacrifices.

7 But into the seconde went the hye prest alone once every yeare: and not with out bloud which he offered for him silfe and for the ignoraunce of ye people.

But into the second part, once a year, the high priest alone entered, not without blood, which he offered on behalf of the neglectful offenses of himself and of the people.

8 Wherwith ye holy goost this signifyeng yt the waye of holy thynges was not yet opened whill as yet ye fyrst tabernacle was stondynge.

In this way, the Holy Spirit is signifying that the way to what is most holy was not yet made manifest, not while the first tabernacle was still standing.

9 Which was a similitude for the tyme then present and in which were offered gyftes and sacrifises that coulde not make them that minister parfecte as pertaynynge to the conscience

And this is a parable for the present time. Accordingly, those gifts and sacrifices that are offered are not able, as concerns the conscience, to make perfect those things that serve only as food and drink,

10 with only meates and drinkes and divers wesshynges and iustifyinges of the flesshe which were ordeyned vntyll the tyme of reformacion.

as well as the various washings and justices of the flesh, which were imposed upon them until the time of correction.

11 But Christ beynge an hye prest of good thynges to come came by a greater and a moare parfecte tabernacle not made with hondes: that is to saye not of this maner bildynge

But Christ, standing as the High Priest of future good things, through a greater and more perfect tabernacle, one not made by hand, that is, not of this creation,

12 nether by the bloud of gotes and calves: but by his awne bloud we entred once for all into the holy place and founde eternall redemcion. (aiōnios g166)

entered once into the Holy of Holies, having obtained eternal redemption, neither by the blood of goats, nor of calves, but by his own blood. (aiōnios g166)

13 For yf the bloud of oxen and of Gotes and the asshes of an heyfer whe it was sprynckled puryfied the vnclene as touchynge the purifiynge of the flesshe:

For if the blood of goats and oxen, and the ashes of a calf, when these are sprinkled, sanctify those who have been defiled, in order to cleanse the flesh,

14 How moche more shall the bloud of Christ (which thorow the eternall sprete offered him silfe with out spot to God) pourdge youre consciences from deed workes for to serve the livynge god? (aiōnios g166)

how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the Holy Spirit has offered himself, immaculate, to God, cleanse our conscience from dead works, in order to serve the living God? (aiōnios g166)

15 And for this cause is he the mediator of ye newe testament that thorow deeth which chaunsed for the redempcion of those transgressions that were in ye fyrst testamet) they which were called myght receave the promes of eternall inheritaunce. (aiōnios g166)

And thus he is the Mediator of the new testament, so that, by his death, he intercedes for the redemption of those transgressions which were under the former testament, so that those who have been called may receive the promise of an eternal inheritance. (aiōnios g166)

16 For whersoever is a testament there must also be the deeth of him that maketh the testament.

For where there is a testament, it is necessary for the death of the one who testifies to intervene.

17 For the testament taketh auctoritie when men are deed: For it is of no value as longe as he that made it is alive.

For a testament is confirmed by death. Otherwise, it as yet has no force, as long as the one who testifies lives.

18 For which cause also nether that fyrst testament was ordeyned with out bloud.

Therefore, indeed, the first was not dedicated without blood.

19 For when all the commaundementes were redde of Moses vnto all the people he toke ye bloud of calves and of Gotes with water and purple woll and ysope and sprynkled both the boke and all the people

For when every commandment of the law had been read by Moses to the entire people, he took up the blood of calves and goats, with water and with scarlet wool and hyssop, and he sprinkled both the book itself and the entire people,

20 sayinge: this is the bloud of the testament which god hath apoynted vnto you.

saying: “This is the blood of the testament which God has commanded for you.”

21 Morover he sprenkled the tabernacle with bloud also and all the ministrynge vessels.

And even the tabernacle, and all the vessels for the ministry, he similarly sprinkled with blood.

22 And almost all thynges are bye the lawe pourged with bloud and with out effusion of bloud is no remission.

And nearly everything, according to the law, is to be cleansed with blood. And without the shedding of blood, there is no remission.

23 It is then nede that the similitudes of hevenly thynges be purified with soche thynges: but the hevenly thynges them selves are purified with better sacrifises then are those.

Therefore, it is necessary for the examples of heavenly things to be cleansed, just as, indeed, these things were. Yet the heavenly things are themselves better sacrifices than these.

24 For Christ is not entred into the holy places that are made with hondes which are but similitudes of true thynges: but is entred into very heven for to appere now in the syght of God for vs:

For Jesus did not enter by means of holy things made with hands, mere examples of the true things, but he entered into Heaven itself, so that he may appear now before the face of God for us.

25 not to offer him silfe often as the hye prest entreth in to ye holy place every yeare with straunge bloud

And he did not enter so as to offer himself repeatedly, as the high priest enters into the Holy of Holies each year, with the blood of another.

26 for then must he have often suffered sence the worlde bega. But now in the ende of the worlde hath he appered once to put synne to flyght by the offerynge vp of him silfe. (aiōn g165)

Otherwise, he would need to have suffered repeatedly since the beginning of the world. But now, one time, at the consummation of the ages, he has appeared in order to destroy sin though his own sacrifice. (aiōn g165)

27 And as it is apoynted vnto men that they shall once dye and then commeth the iudegement even

And in the same manner as it has been appointed for men to die one time, and after this, to be judged,

28 so Christ was once offered to take awaye the synnes of many and vnto them that loke for him shall he appeare agayne without synne vnto saluacion.

so also Christ was offered, one time, in order to empty the sins of so many. He shall appear a second time without sin, for those who await him, unto salvation.
