Hebrews 9:11–22

¹¹But Christ being come ^oa high priest ^pof good things to come, by ^qa greater and more perfect tabernacle, not ^rmade with hands, that is to say, not of this building, ¹²neither by ^sthe blood of goats and calves, but by ^this own blood ^uhe entered in ^vonce into ^wthe holy place, ^xhaving ^yobtained eternal ^zredemption for us. ¹³For if ^athe blood of bulls and of goats, and ^bthe ashes of a heifer sprinkling ^cthe unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh: ¹⁴how much more ^dshall the blood of Christ, who ^ethrough the eternal Spirit ^foffered himself without ^gspot to God, ^hpurge your conscience ⁱfrom dead works ^kto serve ^lthe living God?

¹⁵And for this cause he is ^mthe mediator of the ⁿnew ^otestament, ^pthat by means of death, ^ffor ^qthe redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, ^rthey which are called ^smight receive the ^stpromise of eternal ^uinheritance. ¹⁶For where a ^otestament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator. ^17vFor ^oa testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all whilst the testator liveth. ¹⁸Whereupon neither the first ^vvtestament was ^wdedicated without blood. ¹⁹For ^xwhen Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, ^yhe took the blood of ^zcalves and of goats, with ^awater, and ^abscarlet wool, and ^achyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people, ²⁰saying, ^dThis is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you. ²¹Moreover ^ehe sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of ^fthe ministry. ²²And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and ^gwithout shedding of blood is no remission.
