	BISHOPS Bishops' Bible of 1568	ESV English Standard Version	NIV New International Version
1	The first couenaunt then had verylye iustifiyng ordinaunces, seruinges of God, and worldlye holynesse.	Now even the first covenant had regulations for worship and an earthly place of holiness.	Now the first covenant had regulations for worship and also an earthly sanctuary.
2	For there was a fore tabernacle made, wherein was the lyght, and the table, and the shewe bread, whiche is called holy.	For a tent was prepared, the first section, in which were the lampstand and the table and the bread of the Presence. It is called the Holy Place.	A tabernacle was set up. In its first room were the lampstand and the table with its consecrated bread; this was called the Holy Place.
3	But after the seconde vayle was a tabernacle, which is called holyest of al:	Behind the second curtain was a second section called the Most Holy Place,	Behind the second curtain was a room called the Most Holy Place,
4	Which had the golden senser, and the arke of the couenaunt ouerlaide rounde about with golde, wherin was the golden pot hauyng Manna, and Aarons rodde that had budded, and the tables of the couenaunt:	having the golden altar of incense and the ark of the covenant covered on all sides with gold, in which was a golden urn holding the manna, and Aaron’s staff that budded, and the tablets of the covenant.	which had the golden altar of incense and the gold-covered ark of the covenant. This ark contained the gold jar of manna, Aaron’s staff that had budded, and the stone tablets of the covenant.
5	And ouer it, the Cherubins of glorie, shadowyng the mercie seate: Of which thynges we can not nowe speake particulerlie.	Above it were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat. Of these things we cannot now speak in detail.	Above the ark were the cherubim of the Glory, overshadowing the atonement cover. But we cannot discuss these things in detail now.
6	When these thynges were thus ordeyned, the priestes went alwayes into the first tabernacle, accomplishyng the seruice of God.	These preparations having thus been made, the priests go regularly into the first section, performing their ritual duties,	When everything had been arranged like this, the priests entered regularly into the outer room to carry on their ministry.
7	But into ye seconde (went) the hye priest alone once euery yere, not without blood, which he offered for hym selfe, & for the ignorauncies of the people.	but into the second only the high priest goes, and he but once a year, and not without taking blood, which he offers for himself and for the unintentional sins of the people.	But only the high priest entered the inner room, and that only once a year, and never without blood, which he offered for himself and for the sins the people had committed in ignorance.
8	The holy ghost this signifiyng, that the waye of holy thinges was not yet opened, whyle as yet the first tabernacle was standyng:	By this the Holy Spirit indicates that the way into the holy places is not yet opened as long as the first section is still standing	The Holy Spirit was showing by this that the way into the Most Holy Place had not yet been disclosed as long as the first tabernacle was still functioning.
9	Whiche (was) a similitude for the tyme then preset, in which were offred giftes and sacrifices, that coulde not make the worshipper perfect as parteining to the conscience,	(which is symbolic for the present age). According to this arrangement, gifts and sacrifices are offered that cannot perfect the conscience of the worshiper,	This is an illustration for the present time, indicating that the gifts and sacrifices being offered were not able to clear the conscience of the worshiper.
10	With only meates and drynkes, and diuers wasshynges, and iustifiynges of the flesshe, which were layde vp vntyll the tyme of reformation.	but deal only with food and drink and various washings, regulations for the body imposed until the time of reformation.	They are only a matter of food and drink and various ceremonial washings—external regulations applying until the time of the new order.
11	But Christe beyng come an hye priest of good thynges that shoulde be, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with handes, that is to say, not of this buyldyng,	But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and more perfect tent (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation)	But when Christ came as high priest of the good things that are now already here, he went through the greater and more perfect tabernacle that is not made with human hands, that is to say, is not a part of this creation.
12	Neither by the blood of Goates and Calues: but by his owne blood he entred in once into the holy place, & founde eternall redemption.	he entered once for all into the holy places, not by means of the blood of goats and calves but by means of his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption.	He did not enter by means of the blood of goats and calves; but he entered the Most Holy Place once for all by his own blood, thus obtaining eternal redemption.
13	For if the blood of Oxen & of Goates, and the asshes of a young Cowe, sprinklyng the vncleane, sanctifieth to the purifiyng of the flesshe:	For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the sprinkling of defiled persons with the ashes of a heifer, sanctify for the purification of the flesh,	The blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkled on those who are ceremonially unclean sanctify them so that they are outwardly clean.
14	Howe much more the blood of Christe, which through the eternall spirite offered hym selfe without spot to God, shall purge your conscience fro dead workes, to serue the lyuyng God?	how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify our conscience from dead works to serve the living God.	How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God!
15	And for this cause is he the mediatour of the newe couenaunt, that through death, which was for the redemption of the transgressions that were vnder the first couenaunt, they whiche are called myght receaue the promise of eternall inheritaunce.	Therefore he is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, since a death has occurred that redeems them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant.	For this reason Christ is the mediator of a new covenant, that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance—now that he has died as a ransom to set them free from the sins committed under the first covenant.
16	For where as is a testament, there must also of necessitie be the death of him that maketh it.	For where a will is involved, the death of the one who made it must be established.	In the case of a will, it is necessary to prove the death of the one who made it,
17	For a testament is confirmed when men are dead: for it is yet of no value, as long as he that maketh the testamet is alyue.	For a will takes effect only at death, since it is not in force as long as the one who made it is alive.	because a will is in force only when somebody has died; it never takes effect while the one who made it is living.
18	For which cause also, neither the firste testament was dedicated without blood.	Therefore not even the first covenant was inaugurated without blood.	This is why even the first covenant was not put into effect without blood.
19	For when Moyses had spoken euery precept to all the people according to the lawe, takyng the blood of Calues and of Goates, with water & purple wooll and ysope, he sprynkled both the booke it selfe, and all the people,	For when every commandment of the law had been declared by Moses to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people,	When Moses had proclaimed every command of the law to all the people, he took the blood of calves, together with water, scarlet wool and branches of hyssop, and sprinkled the scroll and all the people.
20	Saying: This is the blood of the testament, whiche God hath enioyned vnto you.	saying, “This is the blood of the covenant that God commanded for you.”	He said, “This is the blood of the covenant, which God has commanded you to keep.”
21	And lykewise he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministerie.	And in the same way he sprinkled with the blood both the tent and all the vessels used in worship.	In the same way, he sprinkled with the blood both the tabernacle and everything used in its ceremonies.
22	And almost all thynges are by ye lawe pourged with blood, and without sheddyng of blood is no remission.	Indeed, under the law almost everything is purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins.	In fact, the law requires that nearly everything be cleansed with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.
23	It is neede then that the paterne of heauenly thynges, be purified with such thynges: but the heauenly thynges the selues (be purified) with better sacrifices then are those.	Thus it was necessary for the copies of the heavenly things to be purified with these rites, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.	It was necessary, then, for the copies of the heavenly things to be purified with these sacrifices, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
24	For Christe is not entred into the holy places made with handes (which are) paternes of true thynges: but into heauen it selfe, nowe to appeare in the syght of God for vs.	For Christ has entered, not into holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true things, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf.	For Christ did not enter a sanctuary made with human hands that was only a copy of the true one; he entered heaven itself, now to appear for us in God’s presence.
25	Not that he shoulde offer him selfe often, as the hye priest entreth into the holy places euery yere in strauge blood:	Nor was it to offer himself repeatedly, as the high priest enters the holy places every year with blood not his own,	Nor did he enter heaven to offer himself again and again, the way the high priest enters the Most Holy Place every year with blood that is not his own.
26	(For then must he haue often suffred sence the foundation of the worlde) But nowe once in the ende of the world hath he appeared, to put away sinne, by the sacrifice of hym selfe.	for then he would have had to suffer repeatedly since the foundation of the world. But as it is, he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.	Otherwise Christ would have had to suffer many times since the creation of the world. But he has appeared once for all at the culmination of the ages to do away with sin by the sacrifice of himself.
27	And as it is appoynted vnto men once to dye, and after this the iudgement:	And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment,	Just as people are destined to die once, and after that to face judgment,
28	Euen so, Christe once offered to take away the sinnes of many, the seconde time shalbe seene without sinne, of them which wayte for hym vnto saluation.	so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.	so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.
