Hebru 9

1 Kaom tangsuek lokmaihaih pongah loe Sithaw bokhaih atawknawk hoi long nuiah kaom bokhaih hmuenciim to oh.

Now that first covenant did indeed have regulations for divine service and the earthly sanctuary.

2 Kahni im to sak o; hmaloe koek ih kahni imthung ah loe hmai paaanghaih, caboi hoi takaw to oh; to ahmuen to ciimcai ahmuen, tiah kawk o.

Yes, a tabernacle was set up: the first part, which is called the Holy Place, in which were the lamp stand, the table and the showbread;

3 Hnetto haih payang ih kahni hnukbangah loe Ciimcai Koek, tiah kawk ih kahni im to oh;

and behind the second curtain an area called the Holy of Holies,

4 to ahmuen ah loe hmuihoih thlaekhaih sui sabae, sui hoi pazut ih lokmaihaih thingkhong to oh, to thingkhong thungah manna suekhaih sui laom, tadok tacawt Aron ih cunghet hoi lokmaihaih thlung kangphaek to oh;

having a golden censer and the ark of the covenant overlaid on all sides with gold—in it were a golden jar holding the manna, Aaron's rod that budded, and the stone tablets of the covenant;

5 to thingkhong nuiah loe lensawk Cherubim mah khuk ih palungnathaih Angraeng tangkhang to oh; to hmuennawk kawng loe vaihi kakoep ah a thui o thai mak ai vop.

while above it were cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat (this is not the place to go into detail about them).

6 Hmuennawk boih hae tiah paroep pacoengah, qaimanawk loe Sithaw toksak hanah hmaloe koek ih kahni im thungah a caeh o toepsoep.

Now when these things had been thus prepared, the priests continually went into the first part, performing the divine services,

7 Toe qaima khue ni saningto naah vaito hnetto haih kahni imthungah akun thaih, qaima mataeng doeh angmah ih zaehaih hoi kaminawk ih sakpazaehaih to loihsak hanah, athii sin ai ah loe akun ai:

but into the second one only the high priest could go, once a year and only with blood, which he offered for himself and for the people's sins of ignorance;

8 hmaloe koek ih kahni im oh nathung, Ciimcai Koek ahmuen thungah akunhaih loklam to amtueng ai vop, tiah Kacai Muithla mah hnuksak:

the Holy Spirit was making clear that the way into the Most Holy Place was not yet open to the public while the first tabernacle was still in existence.

9 to kahni im loe vaihi thuem ah kaom hmuen to hnuksak ih ni, tangqum paekhaih hoi angbawnhaih mah kasae kahoih panoekhaih palung to ciimsak ai, to tiah Sithaw bokhaih toksah kami to doeh akoephaih paek ai;

It was a figure during the time then present, a time when both gifts and sacrifices were being offered that were incapable of clearing the conscience of the worshiper—

10 to baktih caakhaih, naekhaih, congca ciimcaihaih, taksa hoi kasaeng toksakhaih atawk kangquem loe pakhraihaih kangtha om ai nathung khue ni oh.

they were only about foods and drinks and various ceremonial washings and physical regulations, things imposed until the time of restructuring.

11 Kri loe kami mah ban hoi sak ih na ai, hae im doeh na ai, kalen kue moe, kakoep kue kahni im thungah kaom han koi kahoih hmuennawk ih qaima ah ni angzoh,

But Christ entered once for all into the real Holy Places, having obtained eternal redemption—He had come as High Priest of the good things that are about to be, with the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation,

12 Anih loe maeh thii hoi maitaw caa athii hoiah na ai ah, angmah ih athii hoiah ciimcai ahmuen thungah vaito akunh moe, aicae hanah dungzan akranghaih to hnuk. (aiōnios g166)

and with His own blood, not that of goats and calves. (aiōnios g166)

13 Ciimcai ai kaminawk nuiah maitaw tae ih athii, maeh thii hoi maitaw amno ih maiphu haehhaih mah nihcae ih takpum to ciimsak nahaeloe,

For if the blood of bulls and goats, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who had been ceremonially defiled, restored ceremonial purity to the body,

14 coek koi kaom ai dungzan Muithla rang hoiah angmah hoi angmah Sithaw khaeah kangpaek, Kri ih athii mah cae loe kawkruk maw, kahing Sithaw ih toksak hanah kadueh toksakhaih thung hoiah kasae kahoih panoekhaih palung to ciimsak aep tih? (aiōnios g166)

how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the Holy Spirit offered Himself unblemished to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? (aiōnios g166)

15 To pongah duekhaih rang hoiah kaom hmaloe lokmaihaih tlim ah kaom kaminawk ih zaehaih to akrang moe, kawk ih kaminawk mah dungzan lokmaihaih qawk toep o thai hanah, anih loe lokmaihaih kangtha Laicaeh ah oh. (aiōnios g166)

For this reason He is mediator of a new covenant, so that those who have been called may receive the promised eternal inheritance—since a death has occurred for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant. (aiōnios g166)

16 Hmuenmae pongah lokmaihaih sak naah doeh a koehhaih to caksak hanah, lokmaihaih sahkung duekhaih to patuek han angaih.

Now where there is a will, the death of the one who made it must be established;

17 To lokmaihaih sahkung hing nathung, lokmaihaih loe cak thai ai vop: kami to duek pacoengah ni lokmaihaih to caak vop.

because a will is in force after men are dead, since it never takes effect while the one who made it lives.

18 To pongah hmaloe lokmaihaih mataeng doeh athii hoiah ni caksak.

Therefore, not even the first covenant was inaugurated without blood;

19 Mosi mah kaminawk boih khaeah kaalok to kroek pae naah, maitaw caa athii, maeh athii, tui, kamling tuumui hoi hyssop thing tanghang to lak pacoengah, Cabu hoi kaminawk boih to athii hoiah a haeh,

because when every commandment of the Law had been proclaimed by Moses to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the scroll itself and all the people,

20 anih mah, hae loe Sithaw mah nangcae khaeah paek ih lokmaihaih athii ah oh, tiah a thuih pae.

saying, “This is the blood of the covenant which God has decreed to you.”

21 To baktih toengah kahni im hoi toksakhaih hmuenmaenawk boih doeh athii hoiah a haeh pae.

Then he sprinkled both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the divine service with the blood in the same way.

22 Kaalok baktih toengah hmuennawk boih athii hoiah ni pasaeh, athii long ai ah loe zae tahmenhaih to om ai.

In fact, according to the Law nearly everything is cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no remission.

23 To pongah van ah kaom hmuennawk ih tahlip ah kaom hmuen mataeng doeh hae tiah angbawhaih rang hoiah ciimsak han angaih nahaeloe, van ah kaom tangtang hmuennawk cae loe kahoih kue angbawnhaih hoiah ciimsak han oh.

So then, it was necessary for the copies of the things in the heavens to be cleansed with such, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than those.

24 Kri loe loktang ih tahlip ah kaom, ban hoi sak ih kaciim ahmuen ah akun ai; aicae zuengah Sithaw hmaa ah amtueng hanah, van thungah ni akunh:

For Christ did not enter into Holy Places made by hands, mere copies of the true ones, but into Heaven itself, now to appear in God's presence on our behalf;

25 qaima mah Kaciim Koek ahmuen ah kalah athii hoiah saning kruek akun baktih toengah, Anih loe angmah hoi angmah angpaek hanah vaihi hoi vaihi akun ai;

but not in order to offer Himself repeatedly, like the high priest who entered the Most Holy Place year by year with another's blood

26 to tiah vaihi hoi vaihi angpaek nahaeloe, anih loe long oh tangsuek nathuem hoi vai nazetto maw dueh tih boeh: toe vaihi loe angmah hoi angmah angpaekhaih rang hoiah, zaehaih ciimsak hanah, long tue boeng naah vaito ah amtueng kang boeh. (aiōn g165)

—otherwise He would have had to suffer many times since the creation of the world; but now, once for all at the end of the ages, He has been revealed to nullify sin by the sacrifice of Himself. (aiōn g165)

27 Kami loe vaito ni dueh tih, to pacoengah lokcaekhaih to om tih:

Also, inasmuch as men are destined to die but once, after which the judgment,

28 to baktih toengah Kri loe paroeai kaminawk ih zaehaih to phawh hanah, angmah hoi angmah vaito ah angpaek kang boeh; to pacoengah loe Anih mah zaehaih ciimsak han ih na ai ah, Anih zing kaminawk pahlong hanah, amtueng let bae vop tih.

so the Christ also, having been offered once for all to bear the sins of many—He will appear a second time to those who are eagerly waiting for Him, apart from sin, into salvation.
