Hebrews 10:9-23

New International Version

⁹ Then he said, “Here I am, I have come to do your will.”^(A) He sets aside the first to establish the second. ¹⁰ And by that will, we have been made holy^(B) through the sacrifice of the body^(C) of Jesus Christ once for all.^(D)

¹¹ Day after day every priest stands and performs his religious duties; again and again he offers the same sacrifices,^(E) which can never take away sins.^{(F) 12} But when this priest had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins,^(G) he sat down at the right hand of God,^{(H) 13} and since that time he waits for his enemies to be made his footstool.^{(I) 14} For by one sacrifice he has made perfect^(J) forever those who are being made holy.^(K)

¹⁵ The Holy Spirit also testifies^(L) to us about this. First he says:

¹⁷ Then he adds:

¹⁸ And where these have been forgiven, sacrifice for sin is no longer necessary.

A Call to Persevere in Faith

¹⁹ Therefore, brothers and sisters, since we have confidence^(O) to enter the Most Holy Place^(P) by the blood of Jesus, ²⁰ by a new and living way^(Q) opened for us through the curtain,^(R) that is, his body, ²¹ and since we have a great priest^(S) over the house of God,^{(T) 22} let us draw near to God^(U) with a sincere heart and with the full assurance that faith brings,^(V) having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience^(W) and having our bodies washed with pure water.^{(X) 23} Let us hold unswervingly to the hope^(Y) we profess,^(Z) for he who promised is faithful.^(AA)
