Hebrews 8:3-5

Worldwide English (New Testament)

³ Every high priest is chosen to offer gifts and sacrifices. So this high priest must have something to offer also.

⁴ If he were still on earth, he would not be a priest. There are priests on earth already who offer gifts the way the law says.

⁵ The work they do shows what the work of the priest in heaven is. When Moses made a house for God, here is what God told him to do. He said, `Be sure you make everything like I showed you on the mountain.'
