希伯来书 9

14何况基督借着永远的灵，将自己无瑕无疵献给神，他的血岂不更能洗净你们的心。（原文作良心）除去你们的死行，使你们事奉那永生神吗？ 
How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God!
15为此他作了新约的中保。既然受死赎了人在前约之时所犯的罪过，便叫蒙召之人得着所应许永远的产业。 
For this reason Christ is the mediator of a new covenant, that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance--now that he has died as a ransom to set them free from the sins committed under the first covenant.
16凡有遗命，必须等到留遗命的人死了。（遗命原文与约字同） 
In the case of a will, it is necessary to prove the death of the one who made it,
17因为人死了，遗命才有效力，若留遗命的尚在，那遗命还有用处吗？ 
because a will is in force only when somebody has died; it never takes effect while the one who made it is living.

此间经文讲摩西时代之旧约

24因为基督并不是进了人手所造的圣所，（这不过是真圣所的影像）乃是进了天堂，如今为我们显在神面前。 
For Christ did not enter a man-made sanctuary that was only a copy of the true one; he entered heaven itself, now to appear for us in God's presence.
25也不是多次将自己献上，像那大祭司每年带着牛羊的血进入圣所（牛羊的血原文作不是自己的血）。 
Nor did he enter heaven to offer himself again and again, the way the high priest enters the Most Holy Place every year with blood that is not his own.
26如果这样，他从创世以来，就必多次受苦了。但如今在这末世显现一次，把自己献为祭，好除掉罪。 
Then Christ would have had to suffer many times since the creation of the world. But now he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to do away with sin by the sacrifice of himself.
27按着定命，人人都有一死，死后且有审判。 
Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment,
28象这样，基督既然一次被献，担当了多人的罪，将来要向那等候他的人第二次显现，并与罪无关，乃是为拯救他们。 
so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.
