New King James Version

International Standard Version

1For the law, having a shadow of the good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with these same sacrifices, which they offer continually year by year, make those who approach perfect.

1For the Law, being only a reflection of the blessings to come and not their substance, can never make perfect those who come near by the same sacrifices repeatedly offered year after year.

2For then would they not have ceased to be offered? For the worshipers, once purified, would have had no more consciousness of sins.

2Otherwise, would they not have stopped offering them, because the worshipers, cleansed once for all, would no longer be aware of any sins?

3But in those sacrifices there is a reminder of sins every year.

3Instead, through those sacrifices there is a reminder of sins year after year,

4For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and goats could take away sins.

4for it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.

5Therefore, when He came into the world, He said: “Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, But a body You have prepared for Me.

5For this reason, the Scriptures say, when the Messiah was about to come into the world: "You did not want sacrifices and offerings, but you prepared a body for me.

6In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin You had no pleasure.

6In burnt offerings and sin offerings you never took delight.

7Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come— In the volume of the book it is written of Me— To do Your will, O God.’ ”

7Then I said, 'See, I have come to do your will, O God' In the volume of the scroll this is written about me."

8Previously saying, “Sacrifice and offering, burnt offerings, and offerings for sin You did not desire, nor had pleasure in them” (which are offered according to the law),

8In this passage he says, "You never wanted or took delight in sacrifices, offerings, burnt offerings, and sin offerings," which are offered according to the Law.

9then He said, “Behold, I have come to do Your will, O God.” He takes away the first that He may establish the second.

9Then he says, "See, I have come to do your will." He takes away the first in order to establish the second.

10By that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

10By God's will we have been sanctified once and for all through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus, the Messiah.

11And every priest stands ministering daily and offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.

11Day after day every priest stands and repeatedly offers the same sacrifices that can never take away sins.

12But this Man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of God,

12But when this priest had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, "he sat down at the right hand of God."

13from that time waiting till His enemies are made His footstool.

13Since that time, he has been waiting for his enemies to be made a footstool for his feet.

14For by one offering He has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.

14For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified.

15But the Holy Spirit also witnesses to us; for after He had said before,

15The Holy Spirit also assures us of this, for he said:

16“This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the LORD: I will put My laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them,”

16"This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my laws in their hearts and will write them on their minds,

17then He adds, “Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.”

17and I will never again remember their sins and their lawless deeds."

18Now where there is remission of these, there is no longer an offering for sin.

18Now where there is forgiveness of these sins, there is no longer any offering for sin.

19Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the blood of Jesus,

19Therefore, my brothers, since we have confidence to enter the sanctuary by the blood of Jesus,

20by a new and living way which He consecrated for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh,

20the new and living way that he opened for us through the curtain (that is, through his flesh),

21and having a High Priest over the house of God,

21and since we have a great high priest over the household of God,

22let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.

22let us continue to come near with sincere hearts in the full assurance that faith provides, because our hearts have been sprinkled clean from a guilty conscience, and our bodies have been washed with pure water.

23Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.

23Let us continue to hold firmly to the hope that we confess without wavering, for the one who made the promise is faithful.

24And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works,

24And let us continue to consider how to motivate one another to love and good deeds,

25not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.

25not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another even more as you see the day of the Lord coming nearer.

26For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins,

26For if we choose to go on sinning after we have learned the full truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins,

27but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries.

27but only a terrifying prospect of judgment and a raging fire that will consume the enemies of God.

28Anyone who has rejected Moses’ law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses.

28Anyone who violates the Law of Moses dies without mercy "on the testimony of two or three witnesses."

29Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace?

29How much more severe a punishment do you think that person deserves who tramples on God's Son, treats as common the blood of the covenant by which it was sanctified, and insults the Spirit of grace?

30For we know Him who said, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord. And again, “The LORD will judge His people.”

30For we know the one who said, "Vengeance belongs to me; I will pay them back," and again, "The Lord will judge his people."

31It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

31It is a terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God!

32But recall the former days in which, after you were illuminated, you endured a great struggle with sufferings:

32But you must continue to remember those earlier days, how after you were enlightened you endured a hard and painful struggle.

33partly while you were made a spectacle both by reproaches and tribulations, and partly while you became companions of those who were so treated;

33At times you were made a public spectacle by means of insults and persecutions, while at other times you associated with people who were treated this way.

34for you had compassion on me in my chains, and joyfully accepted the plundering of your goods, knowing that you have a better and an enduring possession for yourselves in heaven.

34For you sympathized with the prisoners and cheerfully submitted to the violent seizure of your property, because you know that you have a better and more permanent possession.

35Therefore do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward.

35So don't lose your confidence, since it holds a great reward for you.

36For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise:

36For you need endurance, so that after you have done God's will you can receive what he has promised.

37“For yet a little while, And He who is coming will come and will not tarry.

37For "in a very little while the one who is coming will return— he will not delay;

38Now the just shall live by faith; But if anyone draws back, My soul has no pleasure in him.”

38but my righteous one will live by faith, and if he turns back, my soul will take no pleasure in him."

39But we are not of those who draw back to perdition, but of those who believe to the saving of the soul.

39Now, we do not belong to those who turn back and are destroyed, but to those who have faith and are saved.
