Romans 2
1 જો તમે એમ માનતા હો કે તમે બીજા લોકોનો ન્યાય કરી શકો છો, તે એ તમારી ભૂલ છે. તમે પોતે પણ પાપથી અપરાધી થયેલા છો. તમે બીજા લોકોનો ન્યાય કરવાનો પ્રયત્ન કરો છો. પરંતુ તેઓની માફક તમે પણ ખરાબ કર્મો કરવામાં રચ્યાપચ્યા રહો છો. બીજા લોકોને અપરાધી સિદ્ધ કરવાની પ્રવૃતિ કરીને ખરેખર તો તમે પોતે અપરાધી ઠરો છો.
2 જે લોકો ખરાબ કર્મો કરે છે, તેમનો ન્યાય કરનાર તો દેવ છે અને આપણે જાણીએ છીએ તેમ દેવનો ન્યાય સાચો હોય છે.
3 જે લોકો ખોટાં કર્મો કરે છે તેમનો ન્યાય તમે કરો છો પરંતુ એવાં અનિષ્ટ કાર્યો તમે પોતે પણ કરો જ છો. તેથી આ વાત બરાબર ખાતરીપૂર્વક સમજી લેશો કે દેવ તમારો પણ ન્યાય કરશે. તમે એમાંથી છટકી શકવાના નથી.
4 દેવ તો હંમેશા તમારા પર ભલાઈ કરતો રહ્યો છે અને તમારા જીવનમાં પરિવર્તન આવે એની ધીરજપૂર્વક રાહ જોઈ રહ્યો છે. પરંતુ દેવની આ ભલાઈની તમને તો કઈ પડી જ નથી. પસ્તાવો થાય એ માટે દેવની કૃપા હંમેશા તમારા પર વરસતી હોય છે. એ તમે કદાચ સમજતા જ નથી.
5 પરંતુ તમે લોકો કઠણ અને હઠાગ્રહી છો. જીવનમાં પરિવર્તન પામવાની વાતને તમે ઘસીને ના પાડી દો છો. આ રીતે, દેવ તમને જે શિક્ષા ફરમાવશે એમાં તમે વધુ ઉમેરો કરતા જાઓ છો. ન્યાયના દિવસે દેવ જ્યારે પોતાનો કોપ પ્રગટ કરશે ત્યારે તમને યોગ્ય શિક્ષા (દંડ) મળશે; અને તે દિવસે દેવના સાચા ન્યાયનો લોકોને અનુભવ થશે.
6 દરેક વ્યક્તિને તેનાં કાર્યો અનુસાર દેવ તેને યોગ્ય રીતે શિક્ષા કરશે.
7 કેટલાક લોકો તો જાણે કે દેવના મહિમા માટે જ જીવતા હોય છે. તેઓ પોતાની સારી પ્રતિષ્ઠાનું જતન કરતાં અવિનાશી જીવન જીવી જાય છે. હંમેશા તેઓ સતત સારાં કામો કરવા સારું પોતાનું જીવન જીવતા હોય છે. દેવ એવા લોકોને અનંતજીવન આપશે.
8 પરંતુ બીજા કેટલાએક લોકો સ્વાર્થી હોય છે અને સત્યનો માર્ગ સ્વીકારવાનો ઈન્કાર કરી દે છે. અનિષ્ટને અનુસરનારા લોકોને દેવનો કોપ અને શિક્ષા વહોરવી પડશે.
9 સૌ પ્રથમ યહૂદિઓને અને પછી બિન-યહૂદિઓને એમ જે કોઈ વ્યક્તિ ખરાબ કામો કરશે તેને દેવ દુ:ખો અને યાતનાઓ આપશે.
10 પરંતુ સારાં કામો કરનાર દરેક વ્યક્તિને દેવ મહિમા, માન અને શાંતિ આપશે-ભલે પછી તે યહૂદિ હોય કે બિન-યહૂદિ.
11 કોઈ પણ જાતના ભેદભાવ વગર એક સમાન ધોરણે દેવ સર્વનો ન્યાય કરે છે.
12 જે લોકો પાસે મૂસાનું નિયમશાસ્ત્રછે અને એવા લોકો કે જેઓએ નિયમશાસ્ત્ર સાંભળ્યું નથી. તેઓ બધા જ જ્યારે પાપ કરે છે ત્યારે એક સમાન કક્ષાએ આવી જાય છે. જે લોકો પાસે નિયમશાસ્ત્ર નથી અને જે પાપીઓ છે તેઓ નાશ પામશે. અને જે લોકો પાસે નિયમશાસ્ત્ર છે અને તેઓ પાપી છે તેઓનો ન્યાય નિયમથી થશે.
13 આ નિયમશાસ્ત્ર માત્ર સાંભળી લેવાથી દેવની નજરે ન્યાયી થવાશે નહિ. એ નિયમશાસ્ત્ર પ્રમાણે જે લોકો આજ્ઞા પાળે છે તે દેવની સાથે નિયમ મુજબ ન્યાયી ઠરશે.
14 બિનયહૂદિ લોકો પાસે નિયમશાસ્ત્ર હોતુ નથી, નિયમશાસ્ત્ર જાણ્યા વગર પણ પોતાની સ્વતંત્ર બુદ્ધિ વડે નિયમ મુજબ તેઓ વર્તે છે. જો કે તેઓને નિયમ મળ્યો નથી છતાં તેઓ તેમની જાત માટે નિયમરૂપ છે.
15 તેઓ તેમના હૃદયમાં તે બતાવે છે. નિયમની અપેક્ષા મુજબ સાચું શું છે અને ખોટું શું છે તે તેઓના કામ દેખાડી આપે છે. જ્યારે તેઓ ખોટું કરે છે ત્યારે તેમના વિચારો તેમને કહે છે કે તેઓએ ખોટું કર્યુ છે, અને તેઓ ગુનેગારની લાગણી અનુભવે છે. કેટલીક વાર તર્ક બુદ્ધિથી એમને લાગે કે એમણે જે કઈ કર્યુ છે તે યોગ્ય છે ત્યારે તેઓ અપરાધ ભાવનાથી પીડાતા નથી.
16 જે દિવસે દેવ ન્યાય ચૂકવશે ત્યારે લોકોના હૃદયમાં છુપાયેલી ગુપ્ત વાતો બહાર આવશે. હું જે સુવાર્તાનો ઉપદેશ આપું છું તે કહે છે. દેવ, ખ્રિસ્ત ઈસુ દ્વારા લોકોનો ન્યાય કરશે.
17 પાઉલ યહૂદિઓને કહે છે: તમારા વિષે શું કહેવું, શું માનવું? તમે તો યહૂદિ હોવાનો દાવો કરો છો. નિયમના આધારે તમે દેવની નજીક હોવાનું અભિમાન ધરાવો છો.
18 દેવ તમારી પાસે કેવી અપેક્ષા રાખે છે તે તમે સારી રીતે જાણો છો. જે બાબતો અગત્યની છે તે પણ તમે જાણો જ છો કારણ કે નિયમશાસ્ત્રમાં તમે તેવું શીખ્યા છો.
19 તમે માનો છો કે જે લોકો સાચો માર્ગ જાણતા નથી, તેઓના માર્ગદર્શક તમે છો. જે લોકો અંધકારમાં છે તેમના માટે પ્રકાશરૂપ તમે છો.
20 તમે એમ ધારો છો કે મૂર્ખ માણસોને સાચો માર્ગ તમે બતાવી શકશો જે લોકોને હજી પણ શીખવાની જરૂર છે તેમના શિક્ષક તમે છો એમ તમે માનો છો. નિયમ શીખવાથી તમે વિચારો છો કે તમે બધું જ જાણો છો અને સર્વ સત્ય તમારી પાસે જ છે.
21 તમે બીજા લોકોને ઉપદેશ આપો છો, તો પછી તમારી જાતને ઉપદેશ કેમ આપતા નથી? તમે લોકોને કહો છો કે ચોરી ન કરવી, પરંતુ તમે પોતે જ ચોરી કરો છો.
22 તમો લોકોને કહો છો કે વ્યભિચારનું પાપ ન જ કરવું જોઈએ, પરંતુ તમે પોતે એ પાપના અપરાધી છો. તમે મૂર્તિ-પૂજાને ધિક્કારો છો, પરંતુ મંદિરોને લૂટો છો.
23 દેવના નિયમશાસ્ત્રનું જ્ઞાન હોવાની તમે બડાશો મારો છો પરંતુ નિયમશાસ્ત્રનું ઉલ્લંઘન કરીને તમે દેવને શરમાવો છો.
24 શાસ્ત્રોમાં લખેલું છે કે: “તમારા કારણે બિનયયહૂદિઓમાં દેવના નામની નિંદા થાય છે.”
25 જો તમે નિયમનું પાલન કરતા હોય તો જ સુન્નત કરાવી સાર્થક ગણાય. પરંતુ જો તમે નિયમશાસ્ત્રનું ઉલ્લંઘન કરતા હશો તો તમે સુન્નત કરાવી જ નથી એમ ગણાશે.
26 બિનયહૂદિયો સુન્નત કરાવતા નથી. છતાં નિયમો જે માંગે છે, તે પ્રમાણે કરતા હોય તો તેમણે સુન્નત કરાવી છે એમ મનાશે.
27 યહૂદિ લોકો પાસે તો દેવનું લેખિત નિયમશાસ્ત્ર છે અને તમે તો સુન્નત કરાવી છે. છતાં પણ તમે નિયમનો ભંગ કરતા જ રહો છો. તેથી એવા લોકો કે જેમણે શારીરિક દૃષ્ટિએ સુન્નત કરાવી નથી. છતાં દેવ-આજ્ઞાનું પાલન કરે છે, તેઓનું જીવન એ બતાવે છે તમે લોકો અપરાધી છો.
28 સાચા યહૂદિ હોવું એ માત્ર સાદી સરળ બાહ્ય નિશાનીઓની બાબત નથી. અને સાચી સુન્નત તો શારીરિક નિશાની કરતાં વધારે છે.
29 જે વ્યક્તિ પોતાના અંત:કરણમાં યહૂદિ હશે તે જ સાચો યહૂદિ ગણાશે. સાચી સુન્નત તો પવિત્ર આત્માથી કરાવાની હોય છે, લેખિત નિયમ વડે થતી સુન્નત સાચી નથી. અને જ્યારે આત્મા દ્વારા કોઈ વ્યક્તિના હૃદયની સુન્નત થાય છે, ત્યારે લોકો તેની પ્રશંસા કરતા નથી પરંતુ દેવ તરફથી તેમના પ્રશંસા કરતા નથી પરંતુ દેવ તરફથી તેમની પ્રશંસા પ્રાપ્ત થાય છે.
1 Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things.
2 But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things.
3 And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?
4 Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?
5 But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;
6 Who will render to every man according to his deeds:
7 To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:
8 But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,
9 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;
10 But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:
11 For there is no respect of persons with God.
12 For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;
13 (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.
14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
15 Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)
16 In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.
17 Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast of God,
18 And knowest his will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law;
19 And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness,
20 An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.
21 Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?
22 Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?
23 Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God?
24 For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.
25 For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision.
26 Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?
27 And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law?
28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
Hebrews 9 in Tamil and English
1 ঐ প্রথম চুক্তিতে উপাসনা করার নানা বিধিনিয়ম ছিল; আর মানুষের তৈরী এক উপাসনার স্থান ছিল৷
Then verily the first covenant had also ordinances of divine service, and a worldly sanctuary.
2 উপাসনার স্থানটি ছিল এক তাঁবুর ভেতরে৷ যার প্রথম অংশকে বলা হতো পবিত্র স্থান, য়েখানে ছিল বাতিদান,টেবিল ও ঈশ্বরকে উত্সর্গীকৃত বিশেষ রুটি৷
For there was a tabernacle made; the first, wherein was the candlestick, and the table, and the shewbread; which is called the sanctuary.
3 দ্বিতীয় পর্দার পেছনে আর একটি অংশ ছিল যাকে মহাপবিত্রস্থান বলা হত৷
And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of all;
4 এই অংশে ছিল ধূপ জ্বালাবার জন্য সোনার বেদী ও চুক্তির সেই সিন্দুক, যার চারপাশ ছিল সোনার পাতে মোড়া৷ এর মধ্যে ছিল সোনার এক ঘটিতে মান্না ও হারোণের ছড়ি, য়ে ছড়ি মুকুলিত হয়েছিল; আর পাথরের সেই দুই ফলক যার ওপর নিয়ম চুক্তির শর্ত লেখা ছিল৷
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 সেই সিন্দুকের ওপর ছিল সোনার দুই করূব স্বর্গদূতযা ঈশ্বরের মহিমা প্রকাশ করত৷ তার দয়ার আসনটির ওপর ছায়া ফেলে থাকত৷ বর্তমানে আমরা এর খুঁটিনাটি বর্ণনা দিতে পারি না৷
And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercyseat; of which we cannot now speak particularly.
6 যখন এইসব জিনিস পূর্বে বর্ণিত ব্যবস্থা অনুসারে প্রস্তুত হল, তখন যাজকরা প্রতিদিন উপাসনা করার জন্য প্রথম কক্ষে প্রবেশ করতেন৷
Now when these things were thus ordained, the priests went always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service of God.
7 কিন্তু মহাযাজক দ্বিতীয় কক্ষে কেবল একা বছরে একবার প্রবেশ করতেন; তিনি আবার রক্ত না নিয়ে প্রবেশ করতেন না৷ সেই রক্ত তিনি নিজের জন্য ও লোকদের দোষ-ত্রুটি ও অনিচ্ছাকৃত পাপের মার্জনার জন্য উত্সর্গ করতেন৷
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 পবিত্র আত্মা এর দ্বারা আমাদের জানাচ্ছেন য়ে, যতদিন পর্যন্ত প্রথম তাঁবু ছিল, ততদিন মহাপবিত্র স্থানে প্রবেশের পথ খুলে দেওয়া হয় নি৷
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 এটা আজকের জন্য একটা দৃষ্টান্তস্বরূপ৷ সেই দৃষ্টান্ত মতে ঈশ্বরের উদ্দেশ্যে উত্সর্গীকৃত ঐসব বলি ও উপহার উপাসনাকারীকে সম্পূর্ণভাবে শুদ্ধ করতে পারত না এবং উপাসনাকারীর হৃদয়কে সিদ্ধিলাভ করাতো না৷
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 ঐ উপহারগুলি কেবল খাদ্য়, পানীয় ও নানা প্রকার বাহ্যিক শুচি স্নানের গণ্ডীতে বাঁধা ছিল৷ সে সব বিধি-ব্যবস্থাগুলি ছিল কেবল মানুষের দেহ সম্বন্ধীয়৷ সেগুলি ব্যক্তির হৃদয় সম্বন্ধীয় বিষয় ছিল না৷ নতুন আদেশ না আসা পর্যন্ত ঈশ্বর তাঁর লোকদের এইসব নিয়ম অনুসরণ করতে দিয়েছিলেন৷
Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation.
11 কিন্তু এখন মহাযাজকরূপে খ্রীষ্ট এসেছেন৷ আমরা এখন য়ে সব উত্তম বিষয় পেয়েছি, তিনি সেসবের মহাযাজক৷ পূর্বে যাজকরা তাঁবুর মতো কোন স্থানে সেবা করতেন, কিন্তু খ্রীষ্ট তেমনি করেন না৷ সেই তাঁবু থেকেও এক উত্তমস্থানে খ্রীষ্ট মহাযাজকরূপে সেবা করতেন৷ সেই স্থান সিদ্ধ, সেই স্থান মানুষের হাতে গড়া নয়, তা এই জগতের নয়৷
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 খ্রীষ্ট একবার চিরতরে সেই মহাপবিত্রস্থানে প্রবেশ করেছেন৷ তিনি মহাপবিত্রস্থানে প্রবেশের জন্য ছাগ বা বাছুরের রক্ত ব্যবহার করেন নি, কিন্তু তিনি একবার চিরতরে নিজের রক্ত নিয়ে মহাপবিত্রস্থানে প্রবেশ করেছিলেন৷ খ্রীষ্ট সেখানে প্রবেশ করে আমাদের জন্য অনন্ত মুক্তি অর্জন করেছেন৷
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 ছাগ বা বৃষের রক্ত ও বাছুরের ভস্ম সেই সব অশুচি মানুষের উপর ছিটিয়ে তাদের দেহকে পবিত্র করা হত, যাঁরা উপাসনা স্থলে প্রবেশের জন্য যথেষ্ট শুচি ছিল না৷
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 তবে এটা কি ঠিক নয় য়ে খ্রীষ্টের রক্ত আরও কত অধিক কার্য়করী হতে পারে? অনন্তজীবি আত্মার মাধ্যমে খ্রীষ্ট ঈশ্বরের উদ্দেশ্যে নিজেকে বলিদান করলেন পরিপূর্ণ উত্সর্গরূপে৷ তাই খ্রীষ্টের রক্ত আমাদের সমস্ত হৃদয়কে পাপ থেকে শুদ্ধ ও পবিত্র করবে, যাতে আমরা জীবন্ত ঈশ্বরের উপাসনা করতে পারি৷
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 তাই খ্রীষ্ট তাঁর লোকদের জন্য ঈশ্বরের কাছে এক নতুন চুক্তি উপস্থিত করেছেন৷ খ্রীষ্ট এই নতুন চুক্তি এনেছেন য়েন ঈশ্বরের আহুত লোকেরা তাঁর প্রতিশ্রুত সব আশীর্বাদ পেতে পারে৷ ঈশ্বরের লোকরা সেই আশীর্বাদ অনন্তকাল ভোগ করবে৷ তারা সেসবের অধিকারী হবে কারণ প্রথম চুক্তির সময়ে তারা য়ে পাপ করেছে সেই পাপ থেকে তাদের উদ্ধার করতে খ্রীষ্ট মৃত্যুবরণ করলেন৷
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 মানুষ মৃত্যুর পূর্বে একটা নিয়ম পত্রকরে যায়; কিন্তু নিয়মকারী যদি জীবিত থাকে তবে সেই নিয়মপত্র বা চুক্তির কোন অর্থই হয় না৷
For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.
17 কারণ নিয়মকারীর মৃত্যু হলে তবেই নিয়ম পত্র বলবত্ হয়৷
For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.
18 এইজন্য ঐ প্রথম চুক্তি যা ঈশ্বর ও তাঁর লোকদের মধ্যে সম্পন্ন হয়েছিল সেখানেও ঐ কথা প্রয়োজ্য৷ সেই চুক্তি বলবত্ করতে রক্তের প্রযোজন ছিল৷
Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood.
19 কারণ লোকদের কাছে মোশি বিধি-ব্যবস্থা থেকে সমস্ত আজ্ঞা পাঠ করে পরে তিনি জল ও রক্তবর্ণ মেষলোম আর একগোছা এসোবের ঘাস ব্যবহার করে গোবত্স ও ছাগদের রক্ত সেই পুস্তকটিতে ও লোকদের গায়ে ছিটিয়ে দিয়েছিলেন৷
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 মোশি বলেছিলেন, ‘এই সেই রক্ত যা কার্য়কারী করছে সেই চুক্তি যার আজ্ঞাবহ হতে ঈশ্বর তোমাদের বলছেন৷’
Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you.
21 আর সেইভাবে মোশি পবিত্র তাঁবু ও উপাসনা সংক্রান্ত সব জিনিসের ওপর রক্ত ছিটিয়ে দিয়েছিলেন৷
Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry.
22 কারণ বিধি-ব্যবস্থা বলে য়ে প্রায় সব কিছুই রক্ত ছিটিয়ে শুচি করা প্রযোজন, আর রক্তপাত ব্যতিরেকে পাপের মোচন হয় না৷
And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.
23 এই বিষয়গুলি ছিল আসল স্বর্গীয় বিষয়গুলির দৃষ্টান্ত, সেগুলিকে বলিদানের রক্তে শুচি করার প্রযোজন ছিল৷ কিন্তু যা প্রকৃত স্বর্গীয় বিষয় সেগুলি এর থেকে শ্রেষ্ঠতর বলিদানের দ্বারা শুচি হওয়া প্রযোজন৷
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 খ্রীষ্ট স্বর্গে মহাপবিত্র স্থানে প্রবেশ করেছেন৷ মানুষের তৈরী কোন মহাপবিত্র স্থানে খ্রীষ্ট প্রবেশ করেন নি৷ পৃথিবীর তাঁবুর মহাপবিত্র স্থানে স্বর্গীয় স্থানের প্রতিচ্ছবি মাত্র; কিন্তু খ্রীষ্ট স্বর্গে প্রবেশ করেছেন, আর এখন আমাদের হয়ে তিনি ঈশ্বরের সামনে দাঁড়িয়ে আছেন৷
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 মহাযাজক বছরে একবার বলির য়ে রক্ত নিয়ে মহাপবিত্র স্থানে প্রবেশ করেন তা তার নিজের নয়৷ কিন্তু খ্রীষ্ট স্বর্গে প্রবেশ করেছেন মহাযাজকদের উত্সর্গের মতো বারবার নিজেকে উত্সর্গ করার জন্য নয়৷
Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others;
26 খ্রীষ্ট যদি তাই করতেন তবে জগত্ সৃষ্টির সময় থেকে তাঁকে বারবার প্রাণ দিতে হত৷ খ্রীষ্ট এসে একবার নিজেকে উত্সর্গ করেছেন৷ সেই একবারই চিরন্তন কাজের সমাপ্তি হয়েছে৷ জগতের অন্তিম কালেই খ্রীষ্ট নিজেকে বলিরূপে উত্সর্গ করে লোকদের পাপনাশ করতে এলেন৷
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 মানুষের জন্য একবার মৃত্যু এবং মৃত্যুর পর তাঁর বিচার হয়৷
And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
28 বহুলোকের পাপের বোঝা তুলে নেবার জন্য খ্রীষ্ট একবার নিজেকে উত্সর্গ করলেন; তিনি দ্বিতীয়বার দর্শন দেবেন, তখন পাপের বোঝা তুলে নেবার জন্য নয়, কিন্তু যাঁরা তাঁর জন্য অপেক্ষা করছে তাদের পরিত্রাণ দিতে তিনি আসবেন৷
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.
