Hebrews 9:11-21

11 But when Christ appeared as a 1high priest of the 2good things to come, He entered through 3the greater and more perfect tabernacle, 4not made with hands, that is to say, 5not of this creation;
12 and not through 6the blood of goats and calves, but 7through His own blood, He 8entered the holy place 9once for all, having obtained 10eternal redemption.
13 For if 11the blood of goats and bulls and 12the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled sanctify for the cleansing of the flesh,
14 how much more will 13the blood of Christ, who through 14the eternal Spirit 15offered Himself without blemish to God, 16cleanse your conscience from 17dead works to serve 18the living God?
15 For this reason 19He is the 20mediator of a 21new covenant, so that, since a death has taken place for the redemption of the transgressions that were committed under the first covenant, those who have been 22called may 23receive the promise of 24the eternal inheritance.
16 For where a covenant is, there must of necessity be the death of the one who made it.
17 For a covenant is valid only when men are dead, for it is never in force while the one who made it lives.
18 Therefore even the first covenant was not inaugurated without blood.
19 For when every commandment had been 25spoken by Moses to all the people according to the Law, 26he took the 27blood of the calves and the goats, with 28water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both 29the book itself and all the people,
20 saying, "30THIS IS THE BLOOD OF THE COVENANT WHICH GOD COMMANDED YOU."
21 And in the same way he 31sprinkled both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry with the blood.
