WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)

1 For the law is only a shadow of the good things to come, not the real forms of those things themselves. Those who approach God can never be made perfect by the same sacrifices that the priests continually bring year after year.

1 PORQUE la ley, teniendo la sombra de los bienes venideros, no la imagen misma de las cosas, nunca puede, por los mismos sacrificios que ofrecen continuamente cada año, hacer perfectos á los que se allegan.

1 For the law, having a shadow of the good to come, not the very image of the things, can never with the same sacrifices year by year, which they offer continually, make perfect those who draw near.

2 Otherwise, would the sacrifices not have ceased to be offered? For the worshipers would have been cleansed one time and would no longer have any consciousness of sin.

2 De otra manera cesarían de ofrecerse; porque los que tributan [este] culto, limpios de una vez, no tendrían más conciencia de pecado.

2 Or else wouldn’t they have ceased to be offered, because the worshipers, having been once cleansed, would have had no more consciousness of sins?

3 But with those sacrifices there is a reminder of sins year after year.

3 Empero en estos [sacrificios] cada año se hace conmemoración de los pecados.

3 But in those sacrifices there is a yearly reminder of sins.

4 For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.

4 Porque la sangre de los toros y de los machos cabríos no puede quitar los pecados.

4 For it is impossible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins.

5 ◆ When Christ came into the world, he said, “Sacrifices and offerings you did not desire, but a body you have prepared for me;

5 Por lo cual, entrando en el mundo, dice: Sacrificio y presente no quisiste; mas me apropiaste cuerpo:

5 Therefore when he comes into the world, he says, “You didn’t desire sacrifice and offering, but you prepared a body for me.

6 ◆ with burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not take pleasure.

6 Holocaustos y [expiaciones] por el pecado no te agradaron.

6 You had no pleasure in whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin.

7 ◆ Then I said, 'See, here I am— as it is written about me in the scroll— to do your will.'”

7 Entonces dije: Heme aquí (en la cabecera del libro está escrito de mí) para que haga, oh Dios, tu voluntad.

7 Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come (in the scroll of the book it is written of me) to do your will, O God.’”

8 First he said, “It was neither sacrifices, nor offerings, nor whole burnt offerings, nor sacrifices for sin that you desired. Nor did you take pleasure in them.” These are sacrifices that are offered according to the law.

8 Diciendo arriba: Sacrificio y presente, y holocaustos y [expiaciones] por el pecado no quisiste, ni te agradaron, (las cuales cosas se ofrecen según la ley,)

8 Previously saying, “Sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin you didn’t desire, neither had pleasure in them” (those which are offered according to the law),

9 Then he said, “See, here I am to do your will.” He takes away the first practice in order to establish the second practice.

9 Entonces dijo: Heme aquí para que haga, oh Dios, tu voluntad. Quita lo primero, para establecer lo postrero.

9 then he has said, “Behold, I have come to do your will.” He takes away the first, that he may establish the second,

10 By that will, we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

10 En la cual voluntad somos santificados por la ofrenda del cuerpo de Jesucristo [hecha] una sola vez.

10 by which will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

11 Day after day every priest stands and performs his service to God. He offers the same sacrifices again and again—sacrifices that can never take away sins.

11 Así que, todo sacerdote se presenta cada día ministrando y ofreciendo muchas veces los mismos sacrificios, que nunca pueden quitar los pecados:

11 Every priest indeed stands day by day serving and offering often the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins,

12 But when Christ offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God.

12 Pero éste, habiendo ofrecido por los pecados un [solo] sacrificio para siempre, está sentado á la diestra de Dios,

12 but he, when he had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right hand of God,

13 He is waiting until his enemies are made a stool for his feet.

13 Esperando lo que resta, hasta que sus enemigos sean puestos por estrado de sus pies.

13 from that time waiting until his enemies are made the footstool of his feet.

14 For by one offering he has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.

14 Porque con una sola ofrenda hizo perfectos para siempre á los santificados.

14 For by one offering he has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.

15 The Holy Spirit also testifies to us. First he said,

15 Y atestíguanos lo mismo el Espíritu Santo; que después que dijo:

15 The Holy Spirit also testifies to us, for after saying,

16 “This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord. I will put my laws in their hearts, and I will write them on their minds.

16 Y este es el pacto que haré con ellos después de aquellos días, dice el Señor: Daré mis leyes en sus corazones, y en sus almas las escribiré;

16 “This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days,” says the Lord, “I will put my laws on their heart, I will also write them on their mind;” then he says,

17 Their sins and lawless deeds I will remember no longer.”

17 [Añade]: Y nunca más me acordaré de sus pecados é iniquidades.

17 “I will remember their sins and their iniquities no more.”

18 Now where there is forgiveness for these, there is no longer any sacrifice for sin.

18 Pues donde hay remisión de éstos, no hay más ofrenda por pecado.

18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.

19 Therefore, brothers, we have confidence to enter into the most holy place by the blood of Jesus.

19 Así que, hermanos, teniendo libertad para entrar en el santuario por la sangre de Jesucristo,

19 Having therefore, brothers, boldness to enter into the holy place by the blood of Jesus,

20 That is the new and living way that he has opened for us through the curtain, that is, by means of his flesh.

20 Por el camino que él nos consagró nuevo y vivo, por el velo, esto es, por su carne;

20 by the way which he dedicated for us, a new and living way, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh,

21 Because we have a great priest over the house of God,

21 Y [teniendo] un gran sacerdote sobre la casa de Dios,

21 and having a great priest over God’s house,

22 let us approach with true hearts in the full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water.

22 Lleguémonos con corazón verdadero, en plena certidumbre de fe, purificados los corazones de mala conciencia, y lavados los cuerpos con agua limpia.

22 let’s draw near with a true heart in fullness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and having our body washed with pure water,

23 Let us also hold tightly to the confession of our hope without wavering, because God, who has promised, is faithful.

23 Mantengamos firme la profesión de nuestra fe sin fluctuar; que fiel es el que prometió:

23 let’s hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering; for he who promised is faithful.

24 Let us consider how to motivate one another to love and good deeds.

24 Y considerémonos los unos á los otros para provocarnos al amor y á las buenas obras;

24 Let’s consider how to provoke one another to love and good works,

25 Let us not stop meeting together, as some have done. Instead, encourage one another more and more, and all the more as you see the day coming closer.

25 No dejando nuestra congregación, como algunos tienen por costumbre, mas exhortándonos; y tanto más, cuanto veis que aquel día se acerca.

25 not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.

26 For if we deliberately go on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, a sacrifice for sins no longer exists.

26 Porque si pecáremos voluntariamente después de haber recibido el conocimiento de la verdad, ya no queda sacrificio por el pecado.

26 For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more a sacrifice for sins,

27 Instead, there is only a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fury of fire that will consume God's enemies.

27 Sino una horrenda esperanza de juicio, y hervor de fuego que ha de devorar á los adversarios.

27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fierceness of fire which will devour the adversaries.

28 Anyone who has rejected the law of Moses dies without mercy at the testimony of two or three witnesses.

28 El que menospreciare la ley de Moisés, por el testimonio de dos ó de tres testigos muere sin ninguna misericordia:

28 A man who disregards Moses’ law dies without compassion on the word of two or three witnesses.

29 How much worse punishment do you think one deserves who has trampled underfoot the Son of God, who treated the blood of the covenant as unholy—the blood by which he was sanctified—and insulted the Spirit of grace?

29 ¿Cuánto pensáis que será más digno de mayor castigo, el que hollare al Hijo de Dios, y tuviere por inmunda la sangre del testamento, en la cual fué santificado, é hiciere afrenta al Espíritu de gracia?

29 How much worse punishment do you think he will be judged worthy of who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has counted the blood of the covenant with which he was sanctified an unholy thing, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?

30 For we know the one who said, “Vengeance belongs to me; I will pay back.” And again, “The Lord will judge his people.”

30 Sabemos [quién] es el que dijo: Mía es la venganza, yo daré el pago, dice el Señor. Y otra vez: El Señor juzgará su pueblo.

30 For we know him who said, “Vengeance belongs to me. I will repay,” says the Lord. Again, “The Lord will judge his people.”

31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God!

31 Horrenda cosa es caer en las manos del Dios vivo.

31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

32 But remember the former days, after you were enlightened, how you endured a great struggle in suffering.

32 Empero traed á la memoria los días pasados, en los cuales, después de haber sido iluminados, sufristeis gran combate de aflicciones:

32 But remember the former days, in which, after you were enlightened, you endured a great struggle with sufferings:

33 You were exposed to public ridicule by insults and persecution, and you were sharing with those who went through such suffering.

33 Por una parte, ciertamente, con vituperios y tribulaciones fuisteis hechos espectáculo; y por otra parte hechos compañeros de los que estaban en tal estado.

33 partly, being exposed to both reproaches and oppressions, and partly, becoming partakers with those who were treated so.

34 For you had compassion on those who were prisoners, and you accepted with joy the seizure of your possessions. You knew that you yourselves had a better and everlasting possession.

34 Porque de mis prisiones también os resentisteis conmigo, y el robo de vuestros bienes padecisteis con gozo, conociendo que tenéis en vosotros una mejor sustancia en los cielos, y que permanece.

34 For you both had compassion on me in my chains and joyfully accepted the plundering of your possessions, knowing that you have for yourselves a better possession and an enduring one in the heavens.

35 So do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward.

35 No perdáis pues vuestra confianza, que tiene grande remuneración de galardón:

35 Therefore don’t throw away your boldness, which has a great reward.

36 For you need patience, so that you may receive what God has promised, after you have done his will.

36 Porque la paciencia os es necesaria; para que, habiendo hecho la voluntad de Dios, obtengáis la promesa.

36 For you need endurance so that, having done the will of God, you may receive the promise.

37 “For in a very little while, the one who is coming will indeed come and not delay.

37 Porque aun un poquito, y el que ha de venir vendrá, y no tardará.

37 “In a very little while, he who comes will come and will not wait.

38 My righteous one will live by faith. If he shrinks back, I will not be pleased with him.”

38 Ahora el justo vivirá por fe; mas si se retirare, no agradará á mi alma.

38 But the righteous one will live by faith. If he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him.”

39 But we are not any of those who turn back to destruction. Instead, we are some of those who have faith for keeping our soul.

39 Pero nosotros no somos tales que nos retiremos para perdición, sino fieles para ganancia del alma.

39 But we are not of those who shrink back to destruction, but of those who have faith to the saving of the soul.

Psalm 40:6 and Hebrews 10:5: “ears” or “a body”?
In the Hebrew text of Psalm 40 God has “dug” or “opened” the psalmist’s ears. In the Greek Septuagint (Psalm 39:7) God has “prepared a body” for him, and the Epistle to the Hebrews quotes that Greek wording of Christ coming into the world. The Orthodox Church reads the Greek. Scholars still debate how the Greek reading arose.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

Commentary 10:8 John Chrysostom, Homilies on Hebrews (Homily XVIII)
In what has gone before he had shown that the sacrifices were unavailing for perfect purification, and were a type, and greatly defective. Since then there was this objection to his argument, If they are types, how is it that, after the truth is come, they have not ceased, nor given place, but are still performed?

… incur danger, or are deprived of their goods, but of these also, thus saying, "Call to remembrance the former days, in which after ye were illuminated ye endured a great fight of afflictions; partly whilst ye were made a gazing stock by reproaches, and afflictions." On this account then Christ hath appointed the reward also to be great.
