IN OW of the things which we have spoken this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who® is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens ; 2 A minister of 7 the sanctuary,® and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man. 3 For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is of necessity that this man have somewhat also to offer.* 4 For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that ?there are priests that offer gifts according to the law : 5 Who serve unto the example and shadow” of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith lie,? that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount. 6 But now hath he obtained a more excellent“ ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better r¡ covenant, which was established upon better promises. 7 For if”׳ that first covenant had been faultless, then should noplace have been sought for the second. 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: 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. 10 For this is the covenant that T will make with the house of Israel after those days,saith the Lord ; I will Aput my laws into their mind, and write them !a in their hearts: and® I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people: 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. 12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more. 13 In that he saith, A new® covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxetli old is ready to vanish away. rp CIIAP. IX.
