Hebrews 9:15-17 And for this cause he is the Mediator of the new covenant, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions tht were under the first covenant, they who are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.

Whiston⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁵ And for this cause he is the Mediator of the new covenant, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions tht were under the first covenant, they who are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance. ¹⁶ For where a testament [is], there must also of necessity be the death of the testator. ¹⁷ For a testament [is] of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all whilst the testator liveth.
