Hebrews 9:11-28
11But when ChristG5547 appearedG3854 as a 1highG749 priestG749 of the 2goodG18 thingsG18 3to comeG1096, He entered throughG1223 4the greaterG3173 and moreG5046 perfectG5046 5tabernacleG4633, 6not madeG5499 with handsG5499, that is to say, 7not of thisG3778 creationG2937; 12and not throughG1223 8the bloodG129 of goatsG5131 and calvesG3448, but 9throughG1223 His ownG2398 bloodG129, He 10enteredG1525 the holyG40 placeG40 11onceG2178 for allG2178, 12having obtainedG2147 13eternalG166 redemptionG3085. 13For ifG1487 14the bloodG129 of goatsG5131 and bullsG5022 and 15the ashesG4700 of a heiferG1151 sprinklingG4472 thoseG3588 who have been defiledG2840 sanctifyG37 for the 16cleansingG2514 of the fleshG4561, 14howG4214 muchG4214 moreG3123 will 17the bloodG129 of ChristG5547, whoG3739 throughG1223 1819the eternalG166 SpiritG4151 20offeredG4374 HimselfG1438 withoutG299 blemishG299 to GodG2316, 21cleanseG2511 22your conscienceG4893 from 23deadG3498 worksG2041 to serveG3000 24the livingG2198 GodG2316?
15For thisG3778 reasonG1223 25He is the 26mediatorG3316 of a 27newG2537 covenantG1242, soG3704 that, since a deathG2288 has takenG1096 placeG1096 for the redemptionG629 of the transgressionsG3847 that were committed underG1909 the firstG4413 covenantG1242, thoseG3588 who have been 28calledG2564 may 29receiveG2983 the promiseG1860 of 30the eternalG166 inheritanceG2817. 16For whereG3699 a 31covenantG1242 is, there must of necessityG318 32be the deathG2288 of the one who madeG1303 it. 17For a 33covenantG1242 is validG949 only when 34men are deadG3498, 35for it is neverG3379 in forceG2480 whileG3753 the one who madeG1303 it livesG2198. 18ThereforeG3606 evenG3761 the firstG4413 covenant was not inauguratedG1457 withoutG5565 bloodG129. 19For when everyG3956 commandmentG1785 had been 36spokenG2980 by MosesG3475 to allG3956 the peopleG2992 accordingG2596 to the LawG3551, 37he tookG2983 the 38bloodG129 of the calvesG3448 and the goatsG5131, with 39waterG5204 and scarletG2847 woolG2053 and hyssopG5301, and sprinkledG4472 bothG5037 40the bookG975 itselfG846 and allG3956 the peopleG2992, 20sayingG3004, “41ThisG3778 is the bloodG129 of the covenantG1242 whichG3739 GodG2316 commandedG1781 you.” 21And in the sameG3668 wayG3668 he 42sprinkledG4472 bothG2532 the 43tabernacleG4633 and allG3956 the vesselsG4632 of the ministryG3009 with the bloodG129. 22And accordingG2596 to the 44LawG3551, one may 45almostG4975 say, allG3956 thingsG3956 are cleansedG2511 with bloodG129, and 46withoutG5565 sheddingG130 of bloodG130 there is noG3756 forgivenessG859.
23ThereforeG3767 it was necessaryG318 for the 47copiesG5262 of the things in the heavensG3772 to be cleansedG2511 with theseG3778, but 48the heavenlyG2032 thingsG2032 themselvesG846 with betterG2909 sacrificesG2378 thanG3844 theseG3778. 24For ChristG5547 49did not enterG1525 a holyG40 placeG40 madeG5499 with handsG5499, a mere copyG499 of 50the trueG228 oneG228, but into 51heavenG3772 itselfG846, nowG3568 52to appearG1718 in the presenceG4383 of GodG2316 for us; 25norG3761 was it that He would offerG4374 HimselfG1438 oftenG4178, as 53the highG749 priestG749 entersG1525 54the holyG40 placeG40 55yearG1763 by yearG1763 with bloodG129 that is not his ownG245. 26OtherwiseG1893, He would have neededG1163 to sufferG3958 oftenG4178 sinceG575 56the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889; but nowG3570 57onceG530 at 58the consummationG4930 of the agesG165 He has been 59manifestedG5319 to putG115 awayG115 sinG266 6061by the sacrificeG2378 of HimselfG846. 27And inasmuchG2596G3745 as 62it is 63appointedG606 for menG444 to dieG599 onceG530 and afterG3326 thisG3778 64comes judgmentG2920, 28soG3779 ChristG5547 alsoG2532, having been 65offeredG4374 onceG530 to 66bearG399 the sinsG266 of manyG4183, will appearG3708 67a secondG1208 timeG1208 for 68salvationG4991 69withoutG5565 reference to sinG266, to thoseG3588 who 70eagerlyG553 awaitG553 Him.
