1 Then verily the first covenant had also ordinances of divine service, and a worldly sanctuary. 2 For there was a tabernacle made; the first, wherein was the candlestick, and the table, and the shewbread; which is called the sanctuary. 3 And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of all; 4 Which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron’s rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant; 5 And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercyseat; of which we cannot now speak particularly. 6 Now when these things were thus ordained, the priests went always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service of God . 7 But into the second went the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for the errors of the people: 8 The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet standing: 9 Which was a figure for the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience; 10 Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation. 11 But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building; 12 Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us . 13 For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh: 14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? 15 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance. 16 For where a testament is , there must also of necessity be the death of the testator. 17 For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth. 18 Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood. 19 For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people, 20 Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you. 21 Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry. 22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission. 23 It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these. 24 For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us: 25 Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others; 26 For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. 27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: 28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.

Avvalgi ahd davridagi diniy xizmat
1 Darvoqe, avvalgi ahd davrida sajdaga oid qonun–qoidalar va bu dunyoga mansub boʻlgan bir sajdagoh bor edi. 2 Bu sajdagoh Chodir boʻlib, ikki xonadan iborat edi. Birinchi xona Muqaddas xona deb atalardi. U yerda chiroqpoya, xontaxta va xontaxta ustida muqaddas nonlar bor edi. 3 Chodirning ichki pardasi orqasida Eng muqaddas xona deb atalgan yana bir xona bor edi. 4 Bu xonada tutatqi tutatiladigan oltin qurbongoh va har tomoni oltin bilan qoplangan Ahd sandigʻi turardi. Ahd sandigʻi ichida manna solingan oltin idish, Horunning gullagan hassasi va amrlar yozilgan ikkita tosh lavha bor edi . 5 Sandiqning qopqogʻi ustiga Xudo huzurining ramzi — qanotli karublar oʻrnatilgandi. Karublarning tepaga koʻtarilgan qanotlari qopqoqni berkitib turardi. Bularning hammasini hozir birma–bir aytishning mavridi emas.
6 Xullas, Chodir shu tarzda jihozlangan edi. Ruhoniylar har kuni Chodirning birinchi xonasiga kirib, oʻz xizmatlarini ado etardilar. 7 Chodirning ichki — Eng muqaddas xonasiga esa faqatgina oliy ruhoniy yilda bir martagina kirardi. U doim oʻzi bilan qurbonlik qonini olib kirardi. Bu qonni oʻzining va xalqning bilmasdan qilgan gunohlari uchun nazr qilardi. 8 Oʻrnatilgan oʻsha tartibga binoan, Muqaddas Ruh shuni koʻrsatyaptiki, Eng muqaddas xona xalq uchun yopiq. Chodirning birinchi xonasiga oid boʻlgan qoidalar hanuz kuchda ekan, samodagi Eng muqaddas xonaga ham hali yoʻl yopiq. 9 Bu qoidalar hozirgi zamon uchun ramzdir, ular shunday maʼnoni bildiradi: keltirilgan nazrlar va qurbonliklar Xudoga sajda qiluvchilarning vijdonini poklay olmaydi. 10 Bu nazrlaru qurbonliklar, shuningdek, yegulik, ichgulik va har xil poklanish marosimlariga oid udumlar inson tanasi bilan bogʻliq. Bular yangi tartib oʻrnatilguncha amal qilgan.
Masih — barkamol qurbonlik
11 Endi esa Masih kelgan xayr–barakalarning Oliy ruhoniysi boʻldi. U inson qoʻli bilan qurilmagan, bu dunyoga mansub boʻlmagan samodagi mukammal Chodirga kirdi. Yerdagi Chodirdan buyukroq boʻlgan samodagi bu Chodirdan oʻtib, 12 Eng muqaddas xonaga kirdi. Masih bu xonaga takalar va buqalarning qoni bilan emas, balki Oʻz qoni evaziga kirdi. U yerga bir marta kirib, bizni to abad gunohlardan ozod qildi. 13 Ilgarilari takalaru buqalarning qoni hamda kuydirilgan gʻunajinning kuli harom boʻlgan kishilarning ustiga sepilganda, ular jisman poklanardilar. Jonivorlarning qoni bilan shunday natijaga erishilgan boʻlsa, 14 Masihning qoni bilan bundan–da buyukroq natijaga erishsa boʻladi! Zero, Masih mangu Ruhning qudrati orqali Oʻzini benuqson qurbonlik sifatida Xudoga bagʻishladi. Uning toʻkilgan qoni vijdonimizni oʻlimga yetaklovchi ishlardan poklaydi, shunda biz barhayot Xudoga xizmat qila olamiz.
15 Ana shu sababdan Masih yangi ahdning vositachisi boʻldi. Endi daʼvat etilgan odamlar Xudoning vaʼda qilgan abadiy merosiga ega boʻla oladilar. Ular avvalgi ahd davrida berilgan Xudoning qonunini buzib, gunoh qilgan edilar. Masih esa ularni gunohlaridan xalos qilish uchun qurbon boʻldi. 16 Yangi ahdni goʻyo vasiyatga oʻxshatsa boʻladi. Qayerda vasiyat bor boʻlsa, vasiyat qilgan odamning oʻlimi tasdiqlanishi kerak. 17 Chunki vasiyat oʻlimdan keyingina kuchga kiradi . Vasiyat qiluvchi hali tirik ekan, vasiyatning hech bir taʼsiri yoʻq.
18 Shu bois avvalgi ahd ham toʻkilgan qon orqali kuchga kirgandi. 19 Boshida Muso Tavrotdagi hamma amrlarni butun xalqqa oʻqib berdi. Soʻng bir tutam issop va qirmizi ip yordamida buqalar va takalarning qoni bilan suvni Tavrot kitobiga va butun xalqning ustiga sepib, 20 dedi: “Shu qon Egamizning sizlar bilan qilgan ahdini tasdiqlaydi.” 21 Shuningdek, Muso Muqaddas chodir ustiga va sajda marosimlarida ishlatiladigan barcha ashyolar ustiga qon sepdi. 22 Darhaqiqat, Musoning qonuni boʻyicha deyarli hamma narsa qon bilan poklanadi, toʻkilgan qon orqaligina gunohlar kechiriladi.
23 Shu sababdan samoviy Chodirning aksi boʻlgan bu Chodir va undagi hamma ashyolar hayvonlarning qoni bilan poklanishi kerak edi. Ammo samoviy narsalar bundan aʼloroq qurbonliklarni talab qiladi! 24 Ana shu maqsadda Masih bizlar uchun Xudoning huzurida hozir boʻldi. U haqiqiy Chodirning soyasigina boʻlgan bu dunyodagi Chodirning Eng muqaddas xonasiga emas, balki inson qoʻli bilan qurilmagan samoviy Chodirga kirdi. 25 Levi naslidan boʻlgan oliy ruhoniylar har yili Eng muqaddas xonaga kirib, hayvonlarning qonini nazr qiladilar. Masih esa Oʻzini qayta–qayta qurbonlik qilmadi. 26 Agar Masih har yili Oʻzini qurbonlik qilganda edi, dunyo yaratilgandan beri U qayta–qayta azob chekkan boʻlardi. Buning oʻrniga U mana shu oxirgi zamonda odamlarning gunohlarini yuvish uchun bir martagina olamga kelib, Oʻzini qurbon qildi. 27 Inson zoti bir marta oʻladi, soʻng Xudo tomonidan hukm qilinadi. 28 Shu singari, Masih ham koʻplarning gunohlarini Oʻz boʻyniga olish uchun bir marta qurbon boʻlib, oʻldi. Bu dunyoga U qaytib keladi. Bu safar U gunohlarni yuvish uchun emas, balki Uni intizorlik bilan kutayotgan odamlarga najot berish uchun keladi.
