24 For Christ did not enter a man-made sanctuary that was only a copy of the true one;¹ he entered heaven itself,² now to appear for us in God's presence.³ 25 Nor did he enter heaven to offer himself again and again, the way the high priest enters the Most Holy Place⁴ every year with blood that is not his own.⁵ 26 Then Christ would have had to suffer many times since the creation of the world.⁶ But now he has appeared⁷ once for all⁸ at the end of the ages to do away with sin by the sacrifice of himself.⁹ 27 Just as man is destined to die once,¹⁰ and after that to face judgment,¹¹ 28 so Christ was sacrificed once¹² to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time,¹³ not to bear sin,¹⁴ but to bring salvation¹⁵ to those who are waiting for him.¹⁶
