15And for thiscause he is the mediator of the newtestament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressionsthat wereunder the firsttestament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternalinheritance.
15 And for this cause it is through him that a new agreement has come into being, so that after the errors under the first agreement had been taken away by his death, the word of God might have effect for those who were marked out for an eternal heritage.
15 이를 인하여 그는 새 언약의 중보니 이는 첫 언약 때에 범한 죄를 속하려고 죽으사 부르심을 입은 자로 하여금 영원한 기업의 약속을 얻게 하려 하심이니라
16Forwhere a testamentis, there must also of necessitybe the death of the testator.
16 Because where there is a testament, there has to be the death of the man who made it.
16 유언은 유언한 자가 죽어야 되나니
[x]MKJV: For where a covenant [is], the death of him covenanting must be offered. BBE: Because where there is a testament, there has to be the death of the man who made it. KAV: 상속 언약이 있는 곳에는 또한 반드시 상속 언약하는 자의 죽음이 필히 있어야 하나니
17For a testamentis of forceafter men are dead: otherwise it is ofnostrength at allwhile the testatorliveth.
17 For a testament has effect after death; for what power has it while the man who made it is living?
17 유언은 그 사람이 죽은 후에야 견고한즉 유언한 자가 살았을 때에는 언제든지 효력이 없느니라
[x]MKJV: For a covenant [is] affirmed over [those] dead, since it never has force when The one covenanting is living. BBE: For a testament has effect after death; for what power has it while the man who made it is living? KAV: 상속 언약은 사람이 죽은 뒤에라야 효력이 있고 상속 언약하는 자가 살아 있는 동안에는 아무 힘이 없느니라. TSK: For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.: ge 48:21, joh 14:27, ga 3:15
