LEB(i)
1 Now* the first covenant had regulations for worship and the earthly sanctuary.
2 For a tent was prepared, the first one, in which were the lampstand and the table and the presentation of the loaves, which is called the holy place.
3 And after the second curtain was a tent called the holy of holies,
4 containing the golden incense altar and the ark of the covenant covered on all sides with gold, in which were a golden jar containing the manna and the rod of Aaron that budded and the tablets of the covenant.
5 And above it were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat, about which it is not now possible to speak in detail.
6 Now these things having been prepared in this way, the priests enter into the first tent ⌊continually⌋* as they* accomplish their service,
7 but only the high priest enters into the second tent once a year, not without blood, which he offers on behalf of himself and the sins of the people committed in ignorance.
8 The Holy Spirit was making this clear, that the way into the holy place was not yet revealed, while* the first tent was still in existence,
9 which was a symbol for the present time, in which both the gifts and sacrifices which were offered were not able to perfect the worshiper with respect to the conscience,
