Hebrews 8
1 To sum up what I have been saying: Such is the high priest that we have, one who has taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of God’s Majesty in heaven,
Torej od stvari, ki smo jih govorili, je to povzetek: ›Imamo takšnega vélikega duhovnika, ki je postavljen na desnico prestola Veličanstva v nebesih;
2 where he serves in the sanctuary, in that true tent set up by the Lord and not by man.
služabnika svetišča in resničnega šotorskega svetišča, ki ga je postavil Gospod in ne človek.‹
3 Every high priest is appointed for the purpose of offering gifts and sacrifices to God; it follows, therefore, that this high priest must have some offering to make.
Kajti vsak véliki duhovnik je določen, da daruje darove in žrtve, zato je potrebno, da ima tudi ta človek nekaj, da daruje.
4 If he were, however, still on earth, he would not even be a priest, since there are already priests who offer the gifts as the Law directs.
Kajti če bi bil na zemlji, ne bi bil duhovnik, glede na to, da so tu duhovniki, ki darujejo daritve glede na postavo;
5 (These priests, it is true, are engaged in a service which is only a copy and shadow of the heavenly realities, as is shown by the directions given to Moses when he was about to construct the tent. ‘Look to it,’ are the words, ‘that you make every part in accordance with the pattern shown you on the mountain.’)
ki služijo zgledu in senci nebeških stvari, kakor je bil Mojzes opomnjen od Boga, ko je bil na tem, da postavi šotorsko svetišče, kajti: »Glej, « pravi, » da narediš vse stvari glede na zgled, ki ti je bil pokazan na gori.«
6 But Jesus, as we see, has obtained a ministry as far excelling theirs, as the covenant of which he is the intermediary, based, as it is, on better promises, excels the former covenant.
Toda sedaj je dosegel toliko odličnejšo službo, kolikor je tudi posrednik boljše zaveze, ki je bila osnovana na boljših obljubah.
7 If that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion for a second.
Kajti če bi bila tista prva zaveza brezhibna, potem se ne bi iskalo prostora za drugo.
8 But, finding fault with the people, God says – ‘“A time is coming,” says the Lord, “When I will ratify a new covenant with the people of Israel and with the people of Judah –
Kajti ko je pri njih našel krivdo, jim pravi: »Glejte, pridejo dnevi, govori Gospod, ko bom z Izraelovo hišo in z Judovo hišo sklenil novo zavezo;
9 Not such a covenant as I made with their ancestors on the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt. For they did not abide by their covenant with me, and therefore I disregarded them,” says the Lord.
ne glede na zavezo, ki sem jo sklenil z njihovimi očeti na dan, ko sem jih prijel za roko, da jih izpeljem iz egiptovske dežele; ker niso ostali v moji zavezi in se nisem ozrl nanje, « govori Gospod.
10 “This is the covenant that I will make with the people of Israel after those days,” says the Lord. “I will impress my laws on their minds, and will inscribe them on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they will be my people.
»Kajti to je zaveza, ki jo bom sklenil z Izraelovo hišo po tistih dneh, « govori Gospod, »svoje postave bom položil v njihove misli in jih zapisal v njihova srca, in jaz jim bom Bog in oni mi bodo ljudje;
11 There will be no need for anyone to instruct their fellow citizen, or for a person to say to their relatives ‘Learn to know the Lord’; for everyone will know me, from the lowest to the highest.
in ne bodo učili vsak svojega bližnjega in vsak svojega brata, rekoč: ›Spoznajte Gospoda, ‹ kajti vsi me bodo poznali, od najmanjšega do največjega.
12 For I will be merciful to their wrongdoings, and I will no longer remember their sins.”’
Kajti usmiljen bom do njihovih nepravičnosti in njihovih grehov ter njihovih krivičnosti se ne bom več spominjal.«
13 By speaking of a new covenant, God at once renders the former covenant obsolete; and whatever becomes obsolete and loses its force is virtually annulled.
Ker pravi: »Novo zavezo, « je prvo naredil staro. Torej to, kar propada in postaja staro, je pripravljeno, da izgine proč.
