Hebrews 9:16-22
16For whereG3699 a 1covenantG1242 is, there must of necessityG318 2be the deathG2288 of the one who madeG1303 it. 17For a 3covenantG1242 is validG949 only when 4men are deadG3498, 5for 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 6spokenG2980 by MosesG3475 to allG3956 the peopleG2992 accordingG2596 to the LawG3551, 7he tookG2983 the 8bloodG129 of the calvesG3448 and the goatsG5131, with 9waterG5204 and scarletG2847 woolG2053 and hyssopG5301, and sprinkledG4472 bothG5037 10the bookG975 itselfG846 and allG3956 the peopleG2992, 20sayingG3004, “11ThisG3778 is the bloodG129 of the covenantG1242 whichG3739 GodG2316 commandedG1781 you.” 21And in the sameG3668 wayG3668 he 12sprinkledG4472 bothG2532 the 13tabernacleG4633 and allG3956 the vesselsG4632 of the ministryG3009 with the bloodG129. 22And accordingG2596 to the 14LawG3551, one may 15almostG4975 say, allG3956 thingsG3956 are cleansedG2511 with bloodG129, and 16withoutG5565 sheddingG130 of bloodG130 there is noG3756 forgivenessG859.
