Hebrews 10:11-18
Evangelical Heritage Version
Christ’s Sacrifice Is Sufficient
11 In the one case, every priest stood ministering day after day, offering the same sacrifices again and again, which are never able to remove sin. 12 In the other case, this priest, after he offered one sacrifice for sins for all time, sat down at the right hand of God. 13 Since then he has been waiting until his enemies are made a footstool under his feet. 14 By only one sacrifice he has made perfect forever those who are being sanctified.
15 The Holy Spirit also testifies in Scripture[a] to us, for first he said:
16 This is the covenant I will make with them
after those days, says the Lord.
I will put my laws on their hearts
and I will write them on their mind.[b]
17 Then he adds:
And I will not remember their sins and their lawlessness any longer.[c]
18 Now where these sins are forgiven, there is no longer any sacrifice for sin.
