Hebrews 9:6-15

6NowG1161 when theseG3778 thingsG3778 have been soG3779 preparedG2680, the priestsG2409 1are continuallyG1223G3956 enteringG1524 the 2outerG4413 3tabernacleG4633 performingG2005 the divineG2999 worshipG2999, 7but into 4the secondG1208, onlyG3441 5the highG749 priestG749 enters 6onceG530 a yearG1763, 7not withoutG5565 taking bloodG129, whichG3739 he 8offersG4374 for himselfG1438 and for the 910sinsG51 of the peopleG2992 committed in ignoranceG51. 811The HolyG40 SpiritG4151 is signifyingG1213 thisG3778, 12that the wayG3598 into the holyG40 placeG40 has not yetG3380 been disclosedG5319 while the 13outerG4413 tabernacleG4633 is stillG2089 standingG4714, 9whichG3748 is a symbolG3850 for the presentG1764 timeG2540. AccordinglyG2596 14bothG5037 giftsG1435 and sacrificesG2378 are offeredG4374 which 15cannotG1410G3361 makeG5048 the worshiperG3000 perfectG5048 in conscienceG4893, 10since they relate onlyG3440 to 16foodG1033 and 17drinkG4188 and variousG1313 18washingsG909, 19regulationsG1345 for the 20bodyG4561 imposedG1945 untilG3360 21a timeG2540 of reformationG1357.

11But when ChristG5547 appearedG3854 as a 22highG749 priestG749 of the 23goodG18 thingsG18 24to comeG1096, He entered throughG1223 25the greaterG3173 and moreG5046 perfectG5046 26tabernacleG4633, 27not madeG5499 with handsG5499, that is to say, 28not of thisG3778 creationG2937; 12and not throughG1223 29the bloodG129 of goatsG5131 and calvesG3448, but 30throughG1223 His ownG2398 bloodG129, He 31enteredG1525 the holyG40 placeG40 32onceG2178 for allG2178, 33having obtainedG2147 34eternalG166 redemptionG3085. 13For ifG1487 35the bloodG129 of goatsG5131 and bullsG5022 and 36the ashesG4700 of a heiferG1151 sprinklingG4472 thoseG3588 who have been defiledG2840 sanctifyG37 for the 37cleansingG2514 of the fleshG4561, 14howG4214 muchG4214 moreG3123 will 38the bloodG129 of ChristG5547, whoG3739 throughG1223 3940the eternalG166 SpiritG4151 41offeredG4374 HimselfG1438 withoutG299 blemishG299 to GodG2316, 42cleanseG2511 43your conscienceG4893 from 44deadG3498 worksG2041 to serveG3000 45the livingG2198 GodG2316?

15For thisG3778 reasonG1223 46He is the 47mediatorG3316 of a 48newG2537 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 49calledG2564 may 50receiveG2983 the promiseG1860 of 51the eternalG166 inheritanceG2817.
