| 1 ܪܝܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܟܠܗܝܢ ܐܝܬ ܠܢ ܪܒ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܐܝܢܐ ܕܝܬܒ ܡܢ ܝܡܝܢܐ ܕܟܘܪܤܝܐ ܕܪܒܘܬܐ ܒܫܡܝܐ ܀ | 1 Now the point in what we are saying is this: we have such a high priest, one who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven, |
| 2 ܘܗܘܐ ܡܫܡܫܢܐ ܕܒܝܬ ܩܘܕܫܐ ܘܕܡܫܟܢܐ ܕܫܪܪܐ ܗܘ ܕܩܒܥ ܐܠܗܐ ܘܠܐ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܀ | 2 a minister in the sanctuary and the true tent which is set up not by man but by the Lord. |
| 3 ܟܠ ܪܒ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܓܝܪ ܕܩܐV ܕܢܩܪܒ ܩܘܪܒܢܐ ܘܕܒܚܐ ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܙܕܩܐ ܗܘܬ ܐܦ ܠܗܢܐ ܕܢܗܘܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܡܕV ܕܢܩܪܒ ܀ | 3 For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices; hence it is necessary for this priest also to have something to offer. |
| 4 ܘܐܠܘ ܒܐܪܥܐ ܗܘܐ ܐܦܠܐ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܗܘܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܐܝܬܝܗܘܢ ܗܘܘ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܕܡܩܪܒܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܩܘܪܒܢܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܒܢܡܘܤܐ ܀ | 4 Now if he were on earth, he would not be a priest at all, since there are priests who offer gifts according to the law. |
| 5 ܗܢܘܢ ܕܡܫܡܫܝܢ ܠܕܡܘܬܐ ܘܠܛܠܢܝܬܐ ܕܗܠܝܢ ܕܒܫܡܝܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܐܬܐܡܪ ܠܡܘܫܐ ܟܕ ܥܒܕ ܗܘܐ ܡܫܟܢܐ ܕܚܙܝ ܘܥܒܕ ܟܠܡܕV ܒܕܡܘܬܐ ܗܝ ܕܐܬܚܙܝܬ ܠܟ ܒܛܘܪܐ ܀ | 5 They serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly sanctuary; for when Moses was about to erect the tent, he was instructed by God, saying, "See that you make everything according to the pattern which was shown you on the mountain." |
| 6 ܗܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܬܫܡܫܬܐ ܕܡܝܬܪܐ ܡܢ ܗܝ ܩܒܠ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܟܡܐ ܕܡܝܬܪܐ ܐܦ ܕܝܬܝܩܐ ܗܝ ܕܥܒܝܕ ܒܗ ܡܨܥܝܐ ܘܒܫܘܘܕܝܐ ܕܡܝܬܪܝܢ ܡܢ ܕܗܝ ܐܬܝܗܒܬ ܀ | 6 But as it is, Christ has obtained a ministry which is as much more excellent than the old as the covenant he mediates is better, since it is enacted on better promises. |
| 7 ܐܠܘ ܓܝܪ ܐܝܬܝܗ ܗܘܬ ܩܕܡܝܬܐ ܕܠܐ ܪܫܝܢ ܠܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܐܬܪܐ ܠܗܕܐ ܕܬܪܬܝܢ ܀ | 7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion for a second. |
| 8 ܪܫܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܘܐܡܪ ܕܗܐ ܝܘܡܬܐ ܐܬܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܡܪܝܐ ܘܐܓܡܘܪ ܥܠ ܒܝܬܐ ܕܒܝܬ ܐܝܤܪܝܠ ܘܥܠ ܒܝܬܐ ܕܒܝܬ ܝܗܘܕܐ ܕܝܬܩܐ ܚܕܬܐ ܀ | 8 For he finds fault with them when he says: "The days will come, says the Lord, when I will establish a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah; |
| 9 ܠܐ ܐܝܟ ܗܝ ܕܝܬܩܐ ܕܝܗܒܬ ܠܐܒܗܝܗܘܢ ܒܝܘܡܐ ܕܐܚܕܬ ܒܐܝܕܗܘܢ ܘܐܦܩܬ ܐܢܘܢ ܡܢ ܐܪܥܐ ܕܡܨܪܝܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܗܢܘܢ ܠܐ ܩܘܝܘ ܒܕܝܬܩܐ ܕܝܠܝ ܐܦ ܐܢܐ ܒܤܝܬ ܒܗܘܢ ܐܡܪ ܡܪܝܐ ܀ | 9 not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; for they did not continue in my covenant, and so I paid no heed to them, says the Lord. |
| 10 ܗܕܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܝܬܩܐ ܕܐܬܠ ܠܒܝܬܐ ܕܒܝܬ ܐܝܤܪܝܠ ܒܬܪ ܝܘܡܬܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܐܡܪ ܡܪܝܐ ܐܬܠܝܘܗܝ ܠܢܡܘܤܝ ܒܡܕܥܝܗܘܢ ܘܥܠ ܠܒܘܬܗܘܢ ܐܟܬܒܝܘܗܝ ܘܐܗܘܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܢܐ ܐܠܗܐ ܘܗܢܘܢ ܢܗܘܘܢ ܠܝ ܥܡܐ ܀ | 10 This is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put my laws into their minds, and write them on their hearts, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. |
| 11 ܘܠܐ ܢܠܦ ܐܢܫ ܠܒܪ ܡܕܝܢܬܗ ܐܦܠܐ ܠܐܚܘܗܝ ܘܢܐܡܪ ܕܕܥ ܠܡܪܝܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܟܠܗܘܢ ܢܕܥܘܢܢܝ ܡܢ ܙܥܘܪܗܘܢ ܘܥܕܡܐ ܠܩܫܝܫܗܘܢ ܀ | 11 And they shall not teach every one his fellow or every one his brother, saying, 'Know the Lord,' for all shall know me, from the least of them to the greatest. |
| 12 ܘܐܚܤܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܡܢ ܥܘܠܗܘܢ ܘܚܛܗܝܗܘܢ ܬܘܒ ܠܐ ܐܬܕܟܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܀ | 12 For I will be merciful toward their iniquities, and I will remember their sins no more." |
| 13 ܒܗܝ ܕܐܡܪ ܚܕܬܐ ܠܩܕܡܝܬܐ ܐܥܬܩܗ ܘܐܝܢܐ ܕܥܬܩ ܘܤܐܒ ܩܪܝܒ ܗܘ ܠܚܒܠܐ ܀ | 13 In speaking of a new covenant he treats the first as obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away. |
