Hebrews 10:1-18

Common English Bible CEB

1 The Law is a shadow of the good things that are coming, not the real things themselves. It never can perfect the ones who are trying to draw near to God through the same sacrifices that are offered continually every year.

2 Otherwise, wouldn't they have stopped being offered? If the people carrying out their religious duties had been completely cleansed once, no one would have been aware of sin anymore.

3 Instead, these sacrifices are a reminder of sin every year,

4 because it's impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.

5 Therefore, when he comes into the world he says, You didn't want a sacrifice or an offering, but you prepared a body for me;

6 you weren't pleased with entirely burned offerings or a sin offering.

7 So then I said, "Look, I've come to do your will, God. This has been written about me in the scroll."

8 He says above, You didn't want and you weren't pleased with a sacrifice or an offering or with entirely burned offerings or a purification offering, which are offered because the Law requires them.

9 Then he said, Look, I've come to do your will. He puts an end to the first to establish the second.

10 We have been made holy by God's will through the offering of Jesus Christ's body once for all.

11 Every priest stands every day serving and offering the same sacrifices over and over, sacrifices that can never take away sins.

12 But when this priest offered one sacrifice for sins for all time, he sat down at the right side of God.

13 Since then, he's waiting until his enemies are made into a footstool for his feet,

14 because he perfected the people who are being made holy with one offering for all time.

15 The Holy Spirit affirms this when saying,

16 This is the covenant that I will make with them. After these days, says the Lord, I will place my laws in their hearts and write them on their minds.

17 And I won't remember their sins and their lawless behavior anymore.

18 When there is forgiveness for these things, there is no longer an offering for sin.

New International Version NIV

1 The law is only a shadow of the good things that are coming—not the realities themselves. For this reason it can never, by the same sacrifices repeated endlessly year after year, make perfect those who draw near to worship.

2 Otherwise, would they not have stopped being offered? For the worshipers would have been cleansed once for all, and would no longer have felt guilty for their sins.

3 But those sacrifices are an annual reminder of sins.

4 It is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.

5 Therefore, when Christ came into the world, he said: “Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but a body you prepared for me;

6 with burnt offerings and sin offerings you were not pleased.

7 Then I said, ‘Here I am—it is written about me in the scroll— I have come to do your will, my God.’ ”

8 First he said, “Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not desire, nor were you pleased with them”—though they were offered in accordance with the law.

9 Then he said, “Here I am, I have come to do your will.” He sets aside the first to establish the second.

10 And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

11 Day after day every priest stands and performs his religious duties; again and again he offers the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.

12 But when this priest had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God,

13 and since that time he waits for his enemies to be made his footstool.

14 For by one sacrifice he has made perfect forever those who are being made holy.

15 The Holy Spirit also testifies to us about this. First he says:

16 “This is the covenant I will make with them after that time, says the Lord. I will put my laws in their hearts, and I will write them on their minds.”

17 Then he adds: “Their sins and lawless acts I will remember no more.”

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