如果那短暫的有榮光，那長存的就更有榮光了。

若那废掉的有荣光，这长存的就更有荣光了。

若是那逐渐褪色的有荣光，这长存的就更有荣光了。

若是那逐渐褪色的有荣光，这长存的就更有荣光了。

那渐渐消逝的尚且有荣耀，这永远长存的更是荣耀无比。

如果那短暂的有荣光，那长存的就更有荣光了。

这样，那渐渐消失的尚且带有荣光，何况这长存的，难道不更带有荣光吗？

若那廢掉的有榮光，這長存的就更有榮光了。

若是那逐漸褪色的有榮光，這長存的就更有榮光了。

若是那逐漸褪色的有榮光，這長存的就更有榮光了。

那漸漸消逝的尚且有榮耀，這永遠長存的更是榮耀無比。

那漸漸消逝的制度若是通過榮光而立，這長存的就越發帶着榮光了。

這樣，那漸漸消失的尚且帶有榮光，何況這長存的，難道不更帶有榮光嗎？

蓋暫存者若榮、則永存者更榮矣、○

暫有者若榮、則永存者更榮、

若將廢者有榮、則永存者更有榮、○

夫終須廢棄之臨時制度、且產生於光榮之中、則其永久者之光榮、又為何如！

And if what was transitory came with glory, how much greater is the glory of that which lasts!

The glory of the old lasts for only a short time. How much greater is the glory of the new! It will last forever.

For if what was being brought to an end came with glory, much more will what is permanent have glory.

So if the old way, which has been replaced, was glorious, how much more glorious is the new, which remains forever!

For if what was set aside was glorious, what endures will be even more glorious.

For if that which fades away was with glory, much more that which remains is in glory.

For if what is passing away was glorious, what remains is much more glorious.

For if that which passeth away was with glory, much more that which remaineth is in glory.

For if what was fading away was glorious, what endures will be even more glorious.

For if that which is done away[ was] glorious, much more that which remaineth[ is] glorious.

For if what was made ineffective came with glory, how much more has what remains come in glory!

For if that which passes away was with glory, much more that which remains is in glory.

律法的出現，是要叫過犯增多；然而罪在哪裡增多，恩典就更加增多了。罪藉著死掌權；照樣，恩典也藉著義掌權，使人藉著我們的主耶穌基督進入永生。

神既然說到新的約，就是把前約當作舊的了；那變成陳舊衰老的，就快要消逝了。

只有耶穌是用誓言立的，因為那立他的對他說：“主已經起了誓，決不改變，你永遠作祭司。”耶穌既然是用誓言立的，就成了更美好的約的保證。一方面，從前那些作祭司的，因為受死亡的限制，不能長久留任，所以人數眾多。另一方面，因為耶穌是永遠長存的，就擁有他永不更改的祭司職位。因此，那些靠著他進到神面前的人，他都能拯救到底；因為他長遠活著，為他們代求。

所以，我們既然蒙了憐憫，得著這職分，就不沮喪，

他使我們有資格作新約的僕役，這新約不是從儀文來的，而是從聖靈來的；因為儀文會使人死，而聖靈卻使人活。如果那以文字刻在石上使人死的律法的工作，尚且帶有榮光，以致以色列人因著摩西臉上短暫的榮光，不能注視他的臉，

你們要謹慎，不要棄絕那位說話的，因為從前的人棄絕了那位在地上警戒他們的，尚且不能逃罪；何況現在我們背棄那位從天上警戒我們的呢？當時他的聲音震動了地；現在他卻應許說：“下一次，我不但要震動地，還要震動天。”“下一次”這句話，是表明那些被震動的，要像被造之物那樣被除去，好使那些不能震動的可以留存，因此，我們既然領受了不能震動的國，就應該感恩，照著神所喜悅的，用虔誠敬畏的心事奉他；因為我們的神是烈火。
