Hebrews 8
1 Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who is seated 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 minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man.
Oskrbnik svetišča in šatora pravega, katerega je postavil Gospod in ne človek.
3 For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices: therefore it is of necessity that this man should have somewhat also 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 should not be a priest, seeing there are priests that offer 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 to the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished by God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shown to thee in the mount.
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 hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.
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 should no place have been sought for the second.
Ako bi bila namreč ona prva bila brez pogreška, ne bi se iskalo drugi mesto.
8 For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when 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 when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith 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, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a 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 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the 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, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.
Ker milosten bodem njih krivicam, in njih grehov in pregreškov njih ne bodem se več spominjal."
13 In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and groweth old is ready to vanish away.
Ker pravi: "Novo," ostaral je prvo; kar pa je ostarano in se stara, je skoraj minilo.
