1 For the law, having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never, with the same sacrifices, which they offer year by year continually, make a perfect expiation for those who come to them:
2 for then, would they not have ceased to be offered? because the worshipers, after being once cleansed, would no longer have a consciousness of sins.
3 There is, however, in these sacrifices, a remembrance of sins every year.
4 For it is impossible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.
5 Wherefore, when he comes into the world, he says: Sacrifice and offering thou hast not desired, but a body thou hast prepared me;
6 in whole burnt-offerings and offerings for sin, thou hast had no pleasure.
7 Then, said I, Behold, I come, (in the roll of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, God.
8 After saying above, Thou didst neither desire, nor take pleasure in sacrifice and offering and whole burnt-offerings and offerings for sin, which are offered according to the law,
9 then he said, Behold, I come to do thy will: he takes away the first, that he may establish the second.
10 By which will, we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ, once for all time.
11 And every priest stands daily ministering, and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins:
12 but after offering one sacrifice for sins, he himself sits continually at the right hand of God,
13 henceforth waiting till his enemies be made his footstool.
14 For by one offering, he has made a perfect and perpetual expiation for the sanctified.
15 And, indeed, the Holy Spirit is a witness for us. For after he had said before,
16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord; putting my laws in their hearts, I will also write them in their understandings:
17 he adds, And their sins and iniquities I will remember no more.
18 Now, where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
