Hebrews 10
1 For the law, having a shadow of the good to come, not the very image of the things, can never with the same sacrifices year by year, which they offer continually, make perfect those who draw near.
For the Law hauing the shadowe of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can neuer with those sacrifices, which they offer yeere by yeere continually, sanctifie the commers thereunto.
2 Or else wouldn’t they have ceased to be offered, because the worshipers, having been once cleansed, would have had no more consciousness of sins?
For would they not then haue ceased to haue bene offered, because that the offerers once purged, should haue had no more conscience of sinnes?
3 But in those sacrifices there is a yearly reminder of sins.
But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance againe of sinnes euery yeere.
4 For it is impossible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins.
For it is vnpossible that the blood of bulles and goates should take away sinnes.
5 Therefore when he comes into the world, he says, “You didn’t desire sacrifice and offering, but you prepared a body for me.
Wherefore when he commeth into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offring thou wouldest not: but a body hast thou ordeined me.
6 You had no pleasure in whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin.
In burnt offerings, and sinne offrings thou hast had no pleasure.
7 Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come (in the scroll of the book it is written of me) to do your will, O God.’”
Then I sayd, Lo, I come (In the beginning of the booke it is written of me) that I should doe thy will, O God.
8 Previously saying, “Sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin you didn’t desire, neither had pleasure in them” (those which are offered according to the law),
Aboue, when he sayd, Sacrifice and offring, and burnt offrings, and sinne offrings thou wouldest not haue, neither hadst pleasure therein (which are offered by the Lawe)
9 then he has said, “Behold, I have come to do your will.” He takes away the first, that he may establish the second,
Then sayd he, Lo, I come to doe thy wil, O God, he taketh away the first, that he may stablish the second.
10 by which will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
By the which wil we are sanctified, euen by the offring of the body of Iesus Christ once made.
11 Every priest indeed stands day by day serving and offering often the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins,
And euery Priest standeth dayly ministring, and oft times offreth one maner of offring, which can neuer take away sinnes:
12 but he, when he had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right hand of God,
But this man after he had offered one sacrifice for sinnes, sitteth for euer at the right hand of God,
13 from that time waiting until his enemies are made the footstool of his feet.
And from hencefoorth tarieth, till his enemies be made his footestoole.
14 For by one offering he has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.
For with one offering hath he consecrated for euer them that are sanctified.
15 The Holy Spirit also testifies to us, for after saying,
For the holy Ghost also beareth vs record: for after that he had sayd before,
16 “This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days,” says the Lord, “I will put my laws on their heart, I will also write them on their mind;” then he says,
This is the Testament that I will make vnto them after those dayes, sayth the Lord, I wil put my Lawes in their heart, and in their mindes I will write them.
17 “I will remember their sins and their iniquities no more.”
And their sinnes and iniquities will I remember no more.
18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
Nowe where remission of these things is, there is no more offering for sinne.
19 Having therefore, brothers, boldness to enter into the holy place by the blood of Jesus,
Seeing therefore, brethren, that by the blood of Iesus we may be bolde to enter into the Holy place,
20 by the way which he dedicated for us, a new and living way, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh,
By the newe and liuing way, which hee hath prepared for vs, through the vaile, that is, his flesh:
21 and having a great priest over God’s house,
And seeing we haue an hie Priest, which is ouer the house of God,
22 let’s draw near with a true heart in fullness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and having our body washed with pure water,
Let vs drawe neere with a true heart in assurance of faith, our hearts being pure from an euill conscience,
23 let’s hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering; for he who promised is faithful.
And washed in our bodies with pure water, let vs keepe the profession of our hope, without wauering, (for he is faithfull that promised)
24 Let’s consider how to provoke one another to love and good works,
And let vs consider one another, to prouoke vnto loue, and to good workes,
25 not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.
Not forsaking the fellowship that we haue among our selues, as the maner of some is: but let vs exhort one another, and that so much the more, because ye see that the day draweth neere.
26 For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more a sacrifice for sins,
For if we sinne willingly after that we haue receiued and acknowledged that trueth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sinnes,
27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fierceness of fire which will devour the adversaries.
But a fearefull looking for of iudgement, and violent fire, which shall deuoure the aduersaries.
28 A man who disregards Moses’ law dies without compassion on the word of two or three witnesses.
He that despiseth Moses Law, dieth without mercy vnder two, or three witnesses:
29 How much worse punishment do you think he will be judged worthy of who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has counted the blood of the covenant with which he was sanctified an unholy thing, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?
Of howe much sorer punishment suppose ye shall hee be worthy, which treadeth vnder foote the Sonne of God, and counteth the blood of the Testament as an vnholy thing, wherewith he was sanctified, and doeth despite the Spirit of grace?
30 For we know him who said, “Vengeance belongs to me. I will repay,” says the Lord. Again, “The Lord will judge his people.”
For we know him that hath sayd, Vengeance belongeth vnto mee: I will recompense, saith the Lord. And againe, The Lord shall iudge his people.
31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
It is a fearefull thing to fall into the hands of the liuing God.
32 But remember the former days, in which, after you were enlightened, you endured a great struggle with sufferings:
Nowe call to remembrance the dayes that are passed, in the which, after ye had receiued light, ye endured a great fight in afflictions,
33 partly, being exposed to both reproaches and oppressions, and partly, becoming partakers with those who were treated so.
Partly while yee were made a gazing stocke both by reproches and afflictions, and partly while ye became companions of them which were so tossed to and from.
34 For you both had compassion on me in my chains and joyfully accepted the plundering of your possessions, knowing that you have for yourselves a better possession and an enduring one in the heavens.
For both ye sorowed with mee for my bonds, and suffered with ioy the spoyling of your goods, knowing in your selues howe that ye haue in heauen a better, and an enduring substance.
35 Therefore don’t throw away your boldness, which has a great reward.
Cast not away therefore your confidence which hath great recompense of reward.
36 For you need endurance so that, having done the will of God, you may receive the promise.
For ye haue neede of patience, that after ye haue done the will of God, ye might receiue the promise.
37 “In a very little while, he who comes will come and will not wait.
For yet a very litle while, and hee that shall come, will come, and will not tary.
38 But the righteous one will live by faith. If he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him.”
Nowe the iust shall liue by faith: but if any withdrawe himselfe, my soule shall haue no pleasure in him.
39 But we are not of those who shrink back to destruction, but of those who have faith to the saving of the soul.
But we are not they which withdrawe our selues vnto perdition, but follow faith vnto the conseruation of the soule.
