Hebrews 8:3-6

3For every highG749 priestG749 is appointedG2525 to offerG4374 both giftsG1435 and sacrificesG2378: wherefore it is necessaryG316 that thishighG749 priestG749alsoG2532 have somewhat to offerG4374.

4Now if he wereG1510 on earthG1093, he would not beG1510 a priestG2409 at all, seeing there areG1510 those who offerG4374 the giftsG1435 accordingG2596 to the lawG3551;

5who serveG3000that which isa copy and shadowG4639 of the heavenlyG2032 thingsG3956, evenG2532 as MosesG3475 is warnedG5537of Godwhen he is about to makeG4160 the tabernacleG4633: for, SeeG3708, saith he, that thou makeG4160 all thingsG3956 accordingG2596 to the patternG5179 that was showedG1166 thee in the mountG3735.

6But nowG1161 hath he obtainedG5177 a ministryG3009 the moreG1313 excellentG1313, by so muchG3745 as he isG1510 alsoG2532 the mediatorG3316 of a better covenantG1242, which hath beenG1510 enacted upon better promisesG1860.
