15 And 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. 16 For where a otestament is, there must also of necessity ||be the death of the testator. 17 vFor oa testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth. 18 Whereupon neither the first vvtestament was ||wdedicated without blood. 19 For 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, 20 Saying, dThis is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you. 21 Moreover ehe sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of fthe ministry. 22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and gwithout shedding of blood is no remission. 23 It was therefore necessary that hthe patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these. 24 For iChrist is not entered into jthe holy places kmade with hands, which are lthe figures of mthe true; but ninto heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God ofor us: 25 Nor yet that he should offer himself often, pas the high priest entereth into ithe holy place every year with blood of others; 26 For then must he often have suffered qsince the foundation of the world: but now ronce sin the end of the world sshath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. 27 And as it is appointed unto men tonce to die, but uafter this the judgment: 28 So vChrist was ronce offered to bear the sins of xmany; and unto them that ylook for him shall he appear the second time zwithout sin unto salvation.
