- For, on the one hand, there is a setting aside of a former commandment because of its weakness and uselessness
- (for the Law made nothing perfect), and on the other hand there is a bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.
- And inasmuch as it was not without an oath
- (for they indeed became priests without an oath, but He with an oath through the One who said to Him, "THE LORD HAS SWORN AND WILL NOT CHANGE HIS MIND, 'YOU ARE A PRIEST FOREVER'");
- so much the more also Jesus has become the guarantee of a better covenant.
|
- The former regulation is set aside because it was weak and useless
- (for the law made nothing perfect), and a better hope is introduced, by which we draw near to God.
- And it was not without an oath! Others became priests without any oath,
- but he became a priest with an oath when God said to him: "The Lord has sworn and will not change his mind: 'You are a priest forever.' "
- Because of this oath, Jesus has become the guarantee of a better covenant.
|
- The former priests, on the one hand, existed in greater numbers because they were prevented by death from continuing,
- but Jesus, on the other hand, because He continues forever, holds His priesthood permanently.
- Therefore He is able also to save forever those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.
- For it was fitting for us to have such a high priest, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners and exalted above the heavens;
- who does not need daily, like those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the sins of the people, because this He did once for all when He offered up Himself.
|
- Now there have been many of those priests, since death prevented them from continuing in office;
- but because Jesus lives forever, he has a permanent priesthood.
- Therefore he is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them.
- Such a high priest meets our need--one who is holy, blameless, pure, set apart from sinners, exalted above the heavens.
- Unlike the other high priests, he does not need to offer sacrifices day after day, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people. He sacrificed for their sins once for all when he offered himself.
|
- For the Law appoints men as high priests who are weak, but the word of the oath, which came after the Law, appoints a Son, made perfect forever.
|
- For the law appoints as high priests men who are weak; but the oath, which came after the law, appointed the Son, who has been made perfect forever.
