Hebrews 9
9:1The first tent had indeed then also ordinances of service, and the worldly holy place.
9:2For the first tent was carefully prepared, in which was both lamp-stand and the table, and the place setting of the bread loaves, which is called holy;
9:3and after the second veil, a tent, being called holy of holies;
9:4having a golden incense pan, and the ark of the covenant having been covered over on all sides with gold, in which was the golden jar having the manna, and the rod of Aaron, the one having burst forth, and the tablets of the covenant;
9:5and up above it were the cherubim of glory shading the atonement-seat; concerning which it is not for now to speak in turn.
9:6And of these things thus being carefully prepared, the priests always enter indeed into the first tent, completing the services.
9:7But into the second part the chief priest went in alone once in the year, not separate from blood, which he offers for himself and the ignorance sacrifices for the people.
9:8This manifesting of the holy spirit not yet has been made apparent while still the first tent was having a position the way of the holies.
9:9Which is a parable in the time being present, in which both gifts and sacrifices are offered, not being able as to conscience to perfect the one serving,
9:10consisting only in foods and drinks, and diverse immersions, and ordinances of flesh, until a time of straightening rests.
9:11But Christ being come is chief priest of the good things about to be, through the greater and more perfect tent, not made by hand -- that is to say, not of this creation,
9:12nor through the blood of he-goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered once for all into the holies, having found an eternal ransoming.
9:13For if the blood of bulls and he-goats, and ashes of a heifer sprinkling the ones being unclean, sanctifies for the cleanliness of the flesh,
9:14how much more the blood of the Christ, (who through eternal spirit offered himself unblemished to God,) shall cleanse your conscience from dead works for serving the living God.
9:15And because of this he is mediator of a new covenant, so that death having taken place, for the release by ransom for the violations unto the first covenant, so the ones having been called should receive of the promise of the eternal inheritance.
9:16For where there is a will, it is necessary for the death of the one ordaining the will to come to bear.
9:17For a will with the dead is firm; since not at any time does it prevail when the one ordaining the will lives.
9:18Whereupon neither the first covenant has been dedicated separate from blood.
9:19For every commandment having been spoken according to the law by Moses to all the people, having taken the blood of the calves and he-goats with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, both itself the scroll and all the people he sprinkled,
9:20saying, This is the blood of the covenant, which God gave charge to you.
9:21But also the tent and all the utensils of the ministration with blood in like manner he sprinkled.
9:22And nearly all things with blood are cleansed according to the law, and separate from blood-letting there becomes no release.
9:23It was necessary then for indeed the examples of the things in the heavens to be cleansed with these, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
9:24For not into hand made holy places the Christ entered, which are antitypes of the true, but into heaven itself, now to be revealed to the face of God for us.
9:25Nor that he should often offer himself, as the chief priest enters into the holy places yearly with another's blood;
9:26since it would have been necessary for him to often suffer from the founding of the world. But now once at the completion of the eons, for annulment of sin, he has been manifested through his sacrifice.
9:27And for as much as it has been reserved to men once to die, but after this the judgment;
9:28so also the Christ once having been offered for bearing the sins of many, that of a second time separate from sin he shall appear to the ones awaiting him for deliverance.
