Weymouth New Testament WNT
New International Version NIV
8 After saying the words I have just quoted, "Sacrifices and offerings or whole burnt-offerings and sin-offerings Thou hast not desired or taken pleasure in" --all such being offered in obedience to the Law--
8
First he said, “Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not desire, nor were you pleased with them”—though they were offered in accordance with the law.
9 He then adds, "I have come to do Thy will." He does away with the first in order to establish the second.
9
Then he said, “Here I am, I have come to do your will.” He sets aside the first to establish the second.
10 It is through that divine will that we have been set free from sin, through the offering of Jesus Christ as our sacrifice once for all.
10
And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
11 And while every priest stands ministering, day after day, and constantly offering the same sacrifices--though such can never rid us of our sins--
11
Day after day every priest stands and performs his religious duties; again and again he offers the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.
12 this Priest, on the contrary, after offering for sins a single sacrifice of perpetual efficacy, took His seat at God's right hand,
12
But when this priest had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God,
13 waiting from that time onward until His enemies be put as a footstool under His feet.
13
and since that time he waits for his enemies to be made his footstool.
14 For by a single offering He has for ever completed the blessing for those whom He is setting free from sin.
14
For by one sacrifice he has made perfect forever those who are being made holy.
15 And the Holy Spirit also gives us His testimony; for when He had said,
15
The Holy Spirit also testifies to us about this. First he says:
16 "`This is the Covenant that I will make with them after those days,' says the Lord: `I will put My laws upon their hearts and will write them on their minds;'"
16
“This is the covenant I will make with them after that time, says the Lord. I will put my laws in their hearts, and I will write them on their minds.”
17 He adds, "And their sins and offences I will remember no longer."
17
Then he adds: “Their sins and lawless acts I will remember no more.”
18 But where these have been forgiven no further offering for sin is required.
18
And where these have been forgiven, sacrifice for sin is no longer necessary.
