Lamsa(i)
3 But the inner tabernacle, which is within the veil of the second door, was called the Holy of Holies.
4 And there was in it the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant all overlaid with gold, and in it was the golden pot containing the manna, and AaronÆs rod which sprouted, and the tablets of the covenant;
5 And over it the cherubim of glory, overshadowing the mercy seat; now is not the time to describe how these things were made.
6 The priests always entered into the outer tabernacle and performed their service of worship;
7 But into the inner tabernacle, the high priest entered alone, once every year, with the blood which he offered for himself, and for the faults of the people.
8 By this the Holy Spirit revealed that the way of the saints would not yet be made known, so long as the old tabernacle remained;
9 Which was the symbol for that time, now past, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, which could not make perfect the conscience of him who offered them,
10 But which served only for food and drink, and in divers ablutions, which are ordinances of the flesh and which were imposed until the time of reformation.
11 But Christ, who had come, became the high priest of the good things which he wrought; and he entered into a greater and more perfect tabernacle which was not made by hands, and was not of this world;
12 And he did not enter with the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood, he entered in once into the holy place, and obtained for us everlasting redemption.
13 For if the blood of goats and calves, and the ashes of a heifer, sprinkled on those who were defiled, sanctified them even to the cleansing of their flesh;
14 How much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify our conscience from dead works so that we may serve the living God?
