Hebrews 10:1–18

¹For the law, having a shadow of the coming good things, not the image itself of the things, can never, by the same sacrifices which they offer continually yearly, perfect those who approach. ²Since, would they not indeed have ceased being offered, on account of the worshippers once purged having no longer any conscience of sins? ³But in these there is a calling to mind of sins yearly. ⁴For blood of bulls and goats is incapable of taking away sins. ⁵Wherefore coming into the world he says, Sacrifice and offering thou willedst not; but thou hast prepared me a body. ⁶Thou tookest no pleasure in burnt-offerings and sacrifices for sin.

⁷Then I said, Lo, I come (in the roll of the book it is written of me) to do, O God, thy will. ⁸Above, saying Sacrifices and offerings and burnt-offerings and sacrifices for sin thou willedst not, neither tookest pleasure in (which are offered according to the law); ⁹then he said, Lo, I come to do thy will. He takes away the first that he may establish the second; ¹⁰by which will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. ¹¹And every priest stands daily ministering, and offering often the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. ¹²But he, having offered one sacrifice for sins, sat down in perpetuity at the right hand of God, ¹³waiting from henceforth until his enemies be set for the footstool of his feet. ¹⁴For by one offering he has perfected in perpetuity the sanctified. ¹⁵And the Holy Spirit also bears us witness of it; for after what was said: ¹⁶This is the covenant which I will establish towards them after those days, saith the Lord: Giving my laws into their hearts, I will write them also in their understandings; ¹⁷and their sins and their lawlessnesses I will never remember any more. ¹⁸But where there is remission of these, there is no longer a sacrifice for sin.
