οὐδ’

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Οὐδʼ ἵνα πολλάκις προσφέρῃ ἑαυτόν ὥσπερ ὁ ἀρχιερεύς εἰσέρχεται εἰς τά ἁγία κατʼ ἐνιαυτόν ἐν αἵματι ἀλλοτρίῳ)

The author is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. If it would be helpful in your language, you could supply these words from the previous verse (“enter” in 9:24). Alternate translation: [and he entered not]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὁ ἀρχιερεὺς εἰσέρχεται εἰς τὰ ἅγια κατ’ ἐνιαυτὸν ἐν αἵματι ἀλλοτρίῳ

the (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Οὐδʼ ἵνα πολλάκις προσφέρῃ ἑαυτόν ὥσπερ ὁ ἀρχιερεύς εἰσέρχεται εἰς τά ἁγία κατʼ ἐνιαυτόν ἐν αἵματι ἀλλοτρίῳ)

The author refers to how the high priest was required to enter the Most Holy Place every single year to offer blood from sacrifices. You can read about what God required for this Day of Atonement in Leviticus 16. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [the high priest enters into the Most Holy Place on the Day of Atonement each year with blood that comes from a sacrificed animal, not from himself]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τὰ ἅγια

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Οὐδʼ ἵνα πολλάκις προσφέρῃ ἑαυτόν ὥσπερ ὁ ἀρχιερεύς εἰσέρχεται εἰς τά ἁγία κατʼ ἐνιαυτόν ἐν αἵματι ἀλλοτρίῳ)

The phrase the holy places could refer to: (1) the Most Holy Place, the inner part of the earthly sanctuary that the high priest entered once a year. Alternate translation: [the Most Holy Place]; (2) the entire earthly sanctuary, which the high priest entered many times in the year but especially on the Day of Atonement. Alternate translation: [the sanctuary]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐν αἵματι ἀλλοτρίῳ

with blood another’s

The blood is not his own because it comes from an animal that someone has sacrificed. The author expresses the idea in this way because he is contrasting the high priest with Jesus, who did offer his own blood (See: 9:12). If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this idea more explicitly. Alternate translation: [with another being’s blood] or [with blood from an animal]
