Hebrews 9 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

Heb 9:1Now indeed even the first covenant had ordinances of divine service, and an earthly sanctuary.
Heb 9:2For there was a tabernacle prepared. In the first part were the menorah, the table, and the show bread; which is called the Holy Place.
Heb 9:3After the second veil was the tabernacle which is called the Holy of Holies,
Heb 9:4having a golden altar of incense, and the ark of the covenant overlaid on all sides with gold, in which was a golden pot holding the manna, Aharon's rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant;
Heb 9:5and above it Keruvim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat, of which things we can't now speak in detail.
Heb 9:6Now these things having been thus prepared, the Kohanim go in continually into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the services,
Heb 9:7but into the second the Kohen Gadol alone, once in the year, not without blood, which he offers for himself, and for the errors of the people.
Heb 9:8The Ruach HaKodesh is indicating this, that the way into the Holy Place wasn't yet revealed while the first tabernacle was still standing;
Heb 9:9which is a symbol of the present age, where gifts and sacrifices are offered that are incapable, concerning the conscience, of making the worshipper perfect;
Heb 9:10being only (with meats and drinks and various washings) fleshly ordinances, imposed until a time of reformation.
Heb 9:11But Messiah having come as a Kohen Gadol of the coming good things, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation,
Heb 9:12nor yet through the blood of goats and calves, but through his own blood, entered in once for all into the Holy Place, having obtained eternal redemption.
Heb 9:13For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled, sanctify to the cleanness of the flesh:
Heb 9:14how much more will the blood of Messiah, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
Heb 9:15For this reason he is the mediator of a new covenant, since a death has occurred for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first covenant, that those who have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.
Heb 9:16For where a last will and testament is, there must of necessity be the death of him who made it.
Heb 9:17For a will is in force where there has been death, for it is never in force while he who made it lives.
Heb 9:18Therefore even the first covenant has not been dedicated without blood.
Heb 9:19For when every mitzvah had been spoken by Moshe to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of the calves and the goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people,
Heb 9:20saying, "This is the blood of the covenant which God has commanded you."
Heb 9:21Moreover he sprinkled the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry in like manner with the blood.
Heb 9:22According to the law, nearly everything is cleansed with blood, and apart from shedding of blood there is no remission.
Heb 9:23It was necessary therefore that the copies of the things in the heavens should be cleansed with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
Heb 9:24For Messiah hasn't entered into holy places made with hands, which are representations of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us;
Heb 9:25nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the Kohen Gadol enters into the holy place year by year with blood not his own,
Heb 9:26or else he must have suffered often since the foundation of the world. But now once at the end of the ages, he has been revealed to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.
Heb 9:27Inasmuch as it is appointed for men to die once, and after this, judgment,
Heb 9:28so Messiah also, having been once offered to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, without sin, to those who are eagerly waiting for him for salvation.
