Hebrews 8

Douai-Rheims	Miqra 'al pi ha-Mesorah
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 majesty in the heavens,	¹ וְזֶה רֹאשׁ הַנֶּאֱמָרִים כִּי יֶשׁ־לָנוּ כֹּהֵן גָּדוֹל הַיּוֹשֵׁב לִימִין כִּסֵּא הַגְּבוּרָה בַּשָּׁמָיִם
² A minister of the holies, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord hath pitched, and not man.	² וְהוּא מְשָׁרֵת הַקֹּדֶשׁ וְהַמִּשְׁכָּן הָאֲמִתִּי אֲשֶׁר־כּוֹנֲנוֹ אֲדֹנָי וְלֹא אָדָם
³ For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is necessary that he also should have some thing to offer.	³ כִּי כָל־כֹּהֵן גָּדוֹל הוּא מֻפְקָד לְהַקְרִיב מְנָחוֹת וּזְבָחִים וְעַל־כֵּן צָרִיךְ שֶׁיִּהְיֶה גַם־לָזֶה דָּבָר לְהַקְרִיב
⁴ If then he were on earth, he would not be a priest: seeing that there would be others to offer gifts according to the law,	⁴ וְהִנֵּה אִלּוּ הָיָה בָאָרֶץ לֹא הָיָה כֹּהֵן כִּי יֶשׁ־פֹּה הַכֹּהֲנִים הַמַּקְרִיבִים הַקָּרְבָּנוֹת לְפִי הַתּוֹרָה
⁵ Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things. As it was answered to Moses, when he was to finish the tabernacle: See (saith he) that thou make all things according to the pattern which was shewn thee on the mount.	⁵ וּמְכַהֲנִים לִדְמוּת וְצֵל הַדְּבָרִים שֶׁבַּשָּׁמָיִם כִּדְבַר יְהוָֹה אֶל־משֶׁה בְּבֹאוֹ לְכַלּוֹת אֶת־הַמִּשְׁכָּן כִּי־אָמַר אֵלָיו רְאֵה וַעֲשֵׂה הַכֹּל בְּתַבְנִיתוֹ אֲשֶׁר־אַתָּה מָרְאֶה בָּהָר
⁶ But now he hath obtained a better ministry, by how much also he is a mediator of a better testament, which is established on better promises.	⁶ וְעַתָּה הוּא קִבֵּל שֵׁרוּת מְעֻלֶּה כְּפִי מַעֲלַת הַבְּרִית שֶׁנֶּעֶשְׂתָה עַל־יָדוֹ אֲשֶׁר הוּקְמָה עַל־הַבְטָחוֹת טֹבוֹת וִיתֵרוֹת
⁷ For if that former had been faultless, there should not indeed a place have been sought for a second.	⁷ כִּי אִלּוּ הָיְתָה הָרִאשׁוֹנָה הַהִיא תְּמִימָה לֹא־יְבֻקַּשׁ מָקוֹם לִשְׁנִיָּה
⁸ For finding fault with them, he saith: Behold, the days shall come, saith the Lord: and I will perfect unto the house of Israel, and unto the house of Juda, a new testament:	⁸ כִּי־כֹה אָמַר בְּהוֹכִיחַ אֹתָם הִנֵּה יָמִים בָּאִים נְאֻם־יְהוָֹה וְכָרַתִּי אֶת־בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל וְאֶת־בֵּית יְהוּדָה בְּרִית חֲדָשָׁה
⁹ Not according to the testament which I made to their fathers, on the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt: because they continued not in my testament: and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.	⁹ לֹא כַבְּרִית אֲשֶׁר כָּרַתִּי אֶת־אֲבוֹתָם בְּיוֹם הֶחֱזִיקִי בְיָדָם לְהוֹצִיאָם מֵאֶרֶץ מִצְרָיִם אֲשֶׁר־הֵמָּה הֵפֵרוּ אֶת־בְּרִיתִי וְאָנֹכִי בָּחַלְתִּי בָם נְאֻם־יְהוָֹה
¹⁰ For this is the testament which I will make to the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord: I will give my laws into their mind, and in their heart will I write them: and I will be their God, and they shall be my people:	¹⁰ כִּי זֹאת הַבְּרִית אֲשֶׁר אֶכְרֹת אֶת־בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל אַחֲרֵי הַיָּמִים הָהֵם נְאֻם־יְהוָֹה נָתַתִּי אֶת־תּוֹרָתִי בְּקִרְבָּם וְעַל־לִבָּם אֶכְתֳּבֶנָּה וְהָיִיתִי לָהֶם לֵאלֹהִים וְהֵמָּה יִהְיוּ־לִי לְעָם
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 of them:	¹¹ וְלֹא יְלַמְּדוּ עוֹד אִישׁ אֶת־רֵעֵהוּ וְאִישׁ אֶת־אָחִיו לֵאמֹר דְּעוּ אֶת־יְהוָֹה כִּי כוּלָּם יֵדְעוּ אוֹתִי לְמִקְּטַנָּם וְעַד־גְּדוֹלָם
¹² Because I will be merciful to their iniquities, and their sins I will remember no more.	¹² כִּי אֶסְלַח לַעֲוֺנָם וּלְחַטָּאתָם וּלְפִשְׁעֵיהֶם לֹא אֶזְכָּר־עוֹד
¹³ Now in saying a new, he hath made the former old. And that which decayeth and groweth old, is near its end.	¹³ הִנֵּה בְאָמְרוֹ בְּרִית חֲדָשָׁה יִשֵּׁן אֶת־הָרִאשׁוֹנָה וּמַה־שֶּׁהוּא נוֹשָׁן וּמַזְקִין קָרוֹב הוּא אֶל־קִצּוֹ
