8:1 Now 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;
8:2 A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle,
which the Lord pitched, and not man.
8:3 For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and
sacrifices: wherefore [it is] of necessity that this man have
somewhat also to offer.
8:4 For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest,
seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the
law:
8:5 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 he, [that] thou make all things
according to the pattern showed to thee in the mount.
8:6 But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by
how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which
was established upon better promises.
8:7 For if that first [covenant] had been faultless, then
should no place have been sought for the second.
8:8 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:
8:9 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.
8:10 For this [is] the covenant that I will make with the
house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my
laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I
will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
8:11 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.
8:12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and
their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.
8:13 In that he saith, A new [covenant], he hath made the
first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old [is] ready to
vanish away.
