Ὅθεν wherefore οὐδέ neither ἡ the πρώτη first, χωρίς apart from αἵματος blood ἐνκεκαίνισται· has been inaugurated. λαληθείσης Having been spoken γάρ for πάσης of every ἐντολῆς commandment κατά according to τόν the νόμον law ὑπό by Μωϋσέως Moses παντί to all τῷ the λαῷ, people, λαβών having taken τό the αἷμα blood τῶν - μόσχων of calves καί and τῶν - τράγων of goats, μετά with ὕδατος water, καί and ἐρίου wool κοκκίνου scarlet, καί and ὑσσώπου hyssop, αὐτό itself τέ both τό the βιβλίον book καί and πάντα all τόν the λαόν people ἐράντισεν he sprinkled, λέγων· saying, Τοῦτο This [is] τό the αἷμα blood τῆς of the διαθήκης covenant, ἧς which ἐνετείλατο commanded πρός unto ὑμᾶς you ὁ - Θεός. God.”

Καί And τήν the σκηνήν tabernacle δέ then, καί and πάντα all τά the σκεύη vessels τῆς of the λειτουργίας ministry τῷ with αἵματι blood ὁμοίως likewise ἐράντισεν. he sprinkled. καί And σχεδόν almost ἐν with αἵματι blood πάντα all things καθαρίζεται are purified, κατά according to τόν the νόμον law, καί and χωρίς apart from αἱματεκχυσίας blood-shedding, οὐ not γίνεται there is ἄφεσις. forgiveness.

Ἀνάγκη [It was] necessary οὖν then [for] τά the μέν indeed ὑποδείγματα representations τῶν of the things ἐν in τοῖς the οὐρανοῖς heavens, τούτοις with these καθαρίζεσθαι, to be purified, αὐτά themselves δέ however τά the ἐπουράνια heavenly things κρείττοσιν with better θυσίαις sacrifices παρά than ταύτας. these. οὐ Not γάρ for εἰς into χειροποίητα made by hands εἰσῆλθεν has entered ἅγια holy places Χριστός, Christ, ἀντίτυπα copies τῶν of the ἀληθινῶν, true [ones], ἀλλ ̓ but εἰς into αὐτόν itself τόν - οὐρανόν, heaven, νῦν now ἐμφανισθῆναι to appear τῷ in the προσώπῳ presence τοῦ - Θεοῦ of God ὑπέρ for ἡμῶν· us, οὐδ ̓ nor ἵνα that πολλάκις repeatedly προσφέρῃ He should offer ἑαυτόν, Himself, ὥσπερ just as ὁ the ἀρχιερεύς high priest εἰσέρχεται enters εἰς into τά the ἅγια holy places κατ ̓ every ἐνιαυτόν year ἐν with αἵματι [the] blood ἀλλοτρίῳ, of another. Ἐπεί Otherwise ἔδει it was necessary for αὐτόν Him πολλάκις repeatedly παθεῖν to have suffered ἀπό from καταβολῆς [the] foundation κόσμου· of [the] world. νυνί Now δέ however ἅπαξ once ἐπί in συντελείᾳ [the] consummation τῶν of the αἰώνων ages, εἰς for ἀθέτησιν [the] putting away τῆς of ἁμαρτίας sin, διά by τῆς the θυσίας sacrifice αὐτοῦ of Himself πεφανέρωται. He has been revealed. Καί And καθ ̓ in ὅσον as much as ἀπόκειται it is apportioned τοῖς - ἀνθρώποις to men ἅπαξ once ἀποθανεῖν, to die, μετά after δέ then τοῦτο this κρίσις, [to face] judgment, οὕτως so καί also ὁ - Χριστός Christ, ἅπαξ once προσενεχθείς having been offered εἰς in order τό - πολλῶν of many ἀνενεγκεῖν to bear ἁμαρτίας [the] sins, ἐκ for δευτέρου a second time, χωρίς apart from ἁμαρτίας sin, ὀφθήσεται will appear τοῖς to those αὐτόν Him ἀπεκδεχομένοις awaiting εἰς for σωτηρίαν. salvation. Σκιάν A shadow γάρ for ἔχων having ὁ the νόμος law τῶν of the μελλόντων coming ἀγαθῶν, good things, οὐ not αὐτήν themselves τήν the εἰκόνα form τῶν of the πραγμάτων, things, κατ ̓ each ἐνιαυτόν year ταῖς with the αὐταῖς same θυσίαις sacrifices, ἅς which προσφέρουσιν they offer εἰς to τό the διηνεκές continuous, οὐδέποτε never δύναται is able τούς those προσερχομένους drawing near τελειῶσαι· to perfect. ἐπεί Otherwise οὐ not ἄν - ἐπαύσαντο would they have ceased προσφερόμεναι being offered, διά because of τό - μηδεμίαν none ἔχειν having ἔτι any longer συνείδησιν conscience ἁμαρτιῶν of sins, τούς those λατρεύοντας serving ἅπαξ once κεκαθαρισμένους; having been cleansed? Ἀλλ ̓ But ἐν in αὐταῖς these, ἀνάμνησις [there is] a reminder ἁμαρτιῶν of sins κατ ̓ every ἐνιαυτόν· year. ἀδύνατον Impossible [it is] γάρ indeed αἷμα [for the] blood ταύρων of bulls καί and τράγων of goats ἀφαιρεῖν to take away ἁμαρτίας. sins. Διό Therefore εἰσερχόμενος coming εἰς into τόν the κόσμον world, λέγει· He says: Θυσίαν Sacrifice καί and προσφοράν offering οὐ not ἠθέλησας, You have desired, Σῶμα a body δέ however κατηρτίσω You have prepared μοι· me. Ὁλοκαυτώματα Burnt offerings καί and περί [offerings] for ἁμαρτίας sin οὐκ not εὐδόκησας. You have delighted in. Τότε Then εἶπον· I said, Ἰδού Behold, ἥκω, I have come — ἐν in κεφαλίδι [the] scroll βιβλίου of [the] book γέγραπται it is written περί of ἐμοῦ, Me — Τοῦ - ποιῆσαι to do, ὁ - Θεός O God, τό the θέλημα will σου. of You.’”

Ἀνώτερον Above λέγων saying ὅτι -, Θυσίας Sacrifice, καί and προσφοράς offering, καί and ὁλοκαυτώματα burnt offerings, καί and περί [offerings] for ἁμαρτίας sin, οὐ not ἠθέλησας You have desired, οὐδέ nor εὐδόκησας, have You delighted in,”

αἵτινες which κατά according to νόμον [the] Law προσφέρονται, are offered; τότε then εἴρηκεν· He said, Ἰδού Behold, ἥκω I have come τοῦ - ποιῆσαι to do τό the θέλημα will σου. of You. ἀναιρεῖ He takes away τό the πρῶτον first, ἵνα that τό the δεύτερον second στήσῃ, He might establish. ἐν By ᾧ that θελήματι will, ἡγιασμένοι having been sanctified ἐσμέν we are, διά through τῆς the προσφορᾶς offering τοῦ of the σώματος body Ἰησοῦ of Jesus Χριστοῦ Christ ἐφάπαξ. once for all.

Καί And πᾶς every μέν indeed ἱερεύς priest ἕστηκεν stands καθ ̓ every ἡμέραν day λειτουργῶν ministering, καί and τάς the αὐτάς same πολλάκις repeatedly προσφέρων offering θυσίας, sacrifices, αἵτινες which οὐδέποτε never δύνανται are able περιελεῖν to take away ἁμαρτίας, sins. οὗτος This [One] δέ however, μίαν one ὑπέρ for ἁμαρτιῶν sins προσενέγκας having offered θυσίαν sacrifice εἰς in τό - διηνεκές perpetuity, ἐκάθισεν sat down ἐν at δεξιᾷ [the] right hand τοῦ - Θεοῦ, of God, τό the λοιπόν henceforth ἐκδεχόμενος awaiting ἕως until τεθῶσιν should be placed οἱ the ἐχθροί enemies αὐτοῦ of Him ὑποπόδιον [as] a footstool τῶν for the ποδῶν feet αὐτοῦ. of Him. μιᾷ By one γάρ for προσφορᾷ offering, τετελείωκεν He has perfected εἰς for τό - διηνεκές all time τούς those ἁγιαζομένους. being sanctified. Μαρτυρεῖ Bears witness δέ now ἡμῖν to us καί also τό the Πνεῦμα Spirit τό - Ἅγιον· Holy; μετά after γάρ for τό - εἰρηκέναι· having said: Αὕτη This [is] ἡ the διαθήκη covenant ἥν that διαθήσομαι I will make πρός with αὐτούς them, μετά after τάς the ἡμέρας days ἐκείνας, those, λέγει says Κύριος· [the] Lord, διδούς putting νόμους [the] laws μου of Me ἐπί into καρδίας [the] hearts αὐτῶν of them, καί and ἐπί into τήν the διάνοιαν mind αὐτῶν of them, ἐπιγράψω I will inscribe αὐτούς, them,” Καί and, Τῶν The ἁμαρτιῶν sins αὐτῶν of them, καί and τῶν the ἀνομιῶν lawless acts αὐτῶν of them, οὐ no μή not μνησθήσομαι will I remember ἔτι. any more.”

Ὅπου Where δέ now ἄφεσις forgiveness τούτων, of these [is], οὐκέτι no longer [is there] προσφορά an offering περί for ἁμαρτίας. sin.

Ἔχοντες Having οὖν, therefore, ἀδελφοί, brothers, παρρησίαν confidence εἰς for τήν the εἴσοδον entering τῶν the ἁγίων holy places ἐν by τῷ the αἵματι blood Ἰησοῦ, of Jesus, ἥν which ἐνεκαίνισεν He dedicated ἡμῖν for us ὁδόν a way πρόσφατον new, καί and ζῶσαν living, διά through τοῦ the καταπετάσματος, veil, τοῦτ ̓ that ἔστιν is, τῆς the σαρκός flesh αὐτοῦ, of Him, καί and [having] ἱερέα a priest μέγαν great ἐπί over τόν the οἶκον house τοῦ - Θεοῦ, of God, προσερχώμεθα we should draw near μετά with ἀληθινῆς a sincere καρδίας heart ἐν in πληροφορίᾳ full assurance πίστεως of faith, ῥεραντισμένοι having been sprinkled clean τάς [our] καρδίας hearts ἀπό from συνειδήσεως a conscience πονηρᾶς evil, καί and λελουσμένοι having been washed τό [our] σῶμα body ὕδατι with water καθαρῷ· pure. Κατέχωμεν We should hold fast τήν to the ὁμολογίαν confession τῆς of [our] ἐλπίδος hope, ἀκλινῆ, firmly; πιστός faithful γάρ for [is] ὁ the [One] ἐπαγγειλάμενος, having promised. καί And κατανοῶμεν we should think ἀλλήλους one another, εἰς toward παροξυσμόν stirring up ἀγάπης to love καί and καλῶν to good ἔργων, works, μή not ἐγκαταλείποντες forsaking τήν the ἐπισυναγωγήν assembling together ἑαυτῶν, of ourselves καθώς as ἔθος [is the] custom τισίν, with some, ἀλλά but παρακαλοῦντες, encouraging [one another], καί and τοσούτῳ so much μᾶλλον more ὅσῳ as βλέπετε you see ἐγγίζουσαν drawing near τήν the ἡμέραν.

Ἀναμιμνῄσκεσθε Remember δέ however τάς the πρότερον former ἡμέρας, days ἐν in αἷς which, φωτισθέντες having been enlightened, πολλήν a great ἄθλησιν conflict ὑπεμείνατε you endured παθημάτων, of sufferings, τοῦτο this μέν indeed, ὀνειδισμοῖς by revilings τέ both καί and θλίψεσιν tribulations θεατριζόμενοι, being made a spectacle; τοῦτο this δέ now, κοινωνοί partners τῶν of those οὕτως thus ἀναστρεφομένων passing through [them] γενηθέντες. having become. καί Both γάρ for τοῖς with the δεσμίοις prisoners συνεπαθήσατε you sympathized, καί and τήν the ἁρπαγήν plundering τῶν of the ὑπαρχόντων possessions ὑμῶν of you μετά with χαρᾶς joy προσεδέξασθε you accepted, γινώσκοντες knowing ἔχειν to have ἑαυτούς yourselves κρείττονα a better ὕπαρξιν possession, καί and μένουσαν. abiding.
