Hebrews 9:12-19

12He entered into the Holies once for all—not by the blood of goats and calves but by His own blood, having obtained eternal redemption.

13For if the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled sanctify for the cleansing of the flesh,

14how much more will the blood of Messiah—who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without blemish to God—cleanse our conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

15For this reason He is the mediator of a new covenant, in order that those called may receive the promised eternal inheritance—since a death has taken place that redeems them from violations under the first covenant.

16For where there is a covenant, the death of the one who made it must be established.

17For a covenant is secured upon the basis of dead bodies, since it has no strength as long as the one who made it lives.

18That is why not even the first covenant was inaugurated without blood.

19For when every commandment had been spoken by Moses to all the people according to the Torah, he took the blood of the calves and goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and he sprinkled both the book itself and all the people.
