Hebrews, 8
1. Now the main point in the things that have been stated is this: that we have so great a High Priest, who is seated at the right hand of the throne of Majesty in the heavens,
1. A glavno u ovom izlaganju jest: takva imamo Velikog sveæenika koji sjede zdesna prijestolja Velièanstva na nebesima
2. who is the minister of holy things, and of the true tabernacle, which was established by the Lord, not by man.
2. kao bogoslužnik Svetinje i Šatora istinskoga što ga podiže Gospodin, a ne èovjek.
3. For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices. Therefore, it is necessary for him also to have something to offer.
3. Doista, svaki se veliki sveæenik postavlja da prinosi darove i žrtve. Odatle je potrebno da i on ima što bi prinio.
4. And so, if he were upon the earth, he would not be a priest, since there would be others to offer gifts according to the law,
4. Svakako, da je na zemlji, ne bi bio sveæenik jer postoje oni koji po Zakonu prinose darove.
5. gifts which serve as mere examples and shadows of the heavenly things. And so it was answered to Moses, when he was about to complete the tabernacle: “See to it,” he said, “that you make everything according to the example which was revealed to you on the mountain.”
5. Oni služe slici i sjeni onoga nebeskoga, kako je upuæen Mojsije kad se spremao praviti šator: Pazi, veli doista, naèini sve po praliku koji ti je pokazan na brdu.
6. But now he has been granted a better ministry, so much so that he is also the Mediator of a better testament, which has been confirmed by better promises.
6. Ovako mu pak dopalo uzvišenije bogosluženje koliko je Posrednik boljega Saveza, koji je uzakonjen na boljim obeæanjima.
7. For if the former one had been entirely without fault, then a place certainly would not have been sought for a subsequent one.
7. Da je, zbilja, onaj prvi bio besprijekoran, ne bi se drugome tražilo mjesto.
8. For, finding fault with them, he says: “Behold, the days shall arrive, says the Lord, when I will consummate a New Testament over the house of Israel and the house of Judah,
8. Doista, kudeæi ih veli: Evo dolaze dani - govori Gospodin - kad æu s domom Izraelovim i s domom Judinim dovršiti novi Savez.
9. not according to the testament which I made with their fathers, on the day when I took them by the hand, so that I might lead them away from the land of Egypt. For they did not remain in my testament, and so I disregarded them, says the Lord.
9. Ne Savez kakav uèinih s ocima njihovim u dan kad ih uzeh za ruku da ih izvedem iz zemlje egipatske jer oni ne ustrajaše u mom Savezu pa i ja zanemarih njih - govori Gospodin.
10. For this is the testament which I will set before the house of Israel, after those days, says the Lord. I will instill my laws in their minds, and I will inscribe my laws on their hearts. And so, I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
10. Nego, ovo je Savez kojim æu se svezati s domom Izraelovim nakon ovih dana - govori Gospodin: Zakone æu svoje staviti u dušu njihovu i upisati ih u njihova srca. I bit æu Bog njihov, a oni narod moj.
11. And they will not teach, each one his neighbor, and each one his brother, saying: ‘Know the Lord.’ For all shall know me, from the least, even to the greatest of them.
11. I neæe više nitko uèiti sugraðanina i nitko brata svoga govoreæi: "Spoznaj Gospodina", ta svi æe me poznavati, malo i veliko,
12. For I will forgive their iniquities, and I will no longer remember their sins.”
12. jer æu se smilovati bezakonjima njihovim i grijeha se njihovih neæu više spominjati.
13. Now in saying something new, he has made the former old. But that which decays and grows old is close to passing away.
13. Kad veli novi, ostari onaj prvi. Što pak stÓari i dotrajava, blizu je nestanku.
