¹¹Every priest stands day after day ministering and offering the same sacrifices time after time, which can never take away sins.^d ¹²But this man, after offering one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of God.^A^e ¹³He is now waiting until his enemies are made his footstool.^f ¹⁴For by one offering he has perfected forever those who are sanctified. ¹⁵The Holy Spirit also testifies to us about this. For after he says:

¹⁶This is the covenant I will make with them

after those days,

the Lord says,

I will put my laws on their hearts

and write them on their minds,

¹⁷and I will never again remember

their sins and their lawless acts.^B^g

¹⁸Now where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer an offering for sin.
