8 Now the main point of what is being said is this: We have this kind of high priest, who sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,h 2 a minister of the sanctuary and the true tabernacle that was set up by the Lord and not man.i 3 For every high priest is appointed to offer giftsj and sacrifices; therefore, it was necessary for this priest also to have something to offer. 4 Now if he were on earth, he wouldn’t be a priest, since there are thoseB offering the gifts prescribed by the law. 5 These serve as a copy and shadowk of the heavenly things, as Moses was warned when he was about to complete the tabernacle. For God said, Be careful that you make everything according to the pattern that was shown to you on the mountain.C,l 6 But Jesus has now obtained a superior ministry, and to that degree he is the mediatorm of a better covenant,n which has been established on better promises.o
7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion for a second one. 8 But finding fault with his people,D he says:E
See, the days are coming, says the Lord,
when I will make a new covenant
with the house of Israel
and with the house of Judah—
that I made with their ancestors
on the day I took them by the hand
to lead them out of the land of Egypt.
I showed no concern for them, says the Lord,
because they did not continue in my 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.
I will be their God,
and they will be my people.p
11 And each person will not teach his fellow citizen,F
and each his brother or sister, saying, “Know the Lord,”
because they will all know me,
from the least to the greatest of them.q
12 For I will forgive their wrongdoing,
and I will never again remember their sins.G,H,r
13 By saying a new covenant, he has declared that the first is obsolete. And what is obsolete and growing old is about to pass away.s

About Christian Standard BibleThe Christian Standard Bible (CSB) is a highly trustworthy, faithful translation that is proven to be the optimal blend of accuracy and readability. It’s as literal to the original as possible without sacrificing clarity. The CSB is poised to become the translation that pastors rely on and Bible readers turn to again and again to read and to share with others. The CSB is an original translation: more than 100 scholars from 17 denominations translated directly from the best available Hebrew, Greek and Aramaic source texts into English. Its source texts are the standard used by scholars and seminaries today. The CSB is trustworthy: the conservative, evangelical scholars of the CSB affirm the authority of Scripture as the inerrant Word of God and seek the highest level of faithfulness to the original and accuracy in their translation. These scholars and LifeWay, the non-profit ministry that stewards the CSB, also champion the Bible against cultural trends that would compromise its truths. The CSB is clear: it is as literal a translation of the ancient source texts as possible, but, in the many places throughout Scripture where a word-for-word rendering might obscure the meaning for a modern audience, it uses a more dynamic translation. In all cases, the intent is to convey the original meaning of God’s Word as faithfully and as clearly as possible. |
