Hebrews 9:15-17
15For this reason 1He is the 2mediator of a 3new covenant, so that, since a death has taken place for the redemption of the transgressions that were committed under the first covenant, those who have been 4called may 5receive the promise of 6the eternal inheritance.
16For where a 7covenant is, there must of necessity 8be the death of the one who made it.
17For a 9covenant is valid only when 10men are dead, 11for it is never in force while the one who made it lives.
