Hebrews 9:15-22

Murdock(i) 15 And for this reason he became the Mediator of the new covenant, that he might by his death be redemption, to them who had transgressed the first covenant; so that they, who are called to the eternal inheritance, might receive the promise. 16 For where there is a testament, it indicateth the death of him who made it. 17 For it is valid, only of a deceased person; because it hath no use, so long as the maker of it liveth. 18 Therefore also the first covenant was not confirmed without blood. 19 For when the whole ordinance had been propounded by Moses to all the people, according to the law; Moses took the blood of a heifer, and water, with scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled upon the books and upon all the people; 20 and said to them, This is the blood of the covenant which is enjoined by God. 21 With that blood he also sprinkled upon the tabernacle, and upon all the vessels of ministration: 22 because every thing, according to the law, is purified with blood: and without the shedding of blood, there is no remission.
