Name above Every Other

⁵Consequently, bwhen Christ1 came into the world, he said,

c“Sacrifices and offerings you have not desired,

but a body have you prepared for me;

⁶in burnt offerings and sin offerings

you have taken no pleasure.

⁷Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come to do your will, O God,

as it is written of me in the scroll of the book.’”

⁸When he said above, “You have neither desired nor taken pleasure in csacrifices and offerings and burnt offerings and sin offerings” (these are offered according to the law), ⁹then he added, d“Behold, I have come to do your will.” He does away with the first in order to establish the second. ¹⁰And by that will ewe have been sanctified through the offering of fthe body of Jesus Christ gonce for all.

¹¹And every priest stands hdaily at his service, ioffering repeatedly the same sacrifices, jwhich can never take away sins. ¹²But when Christ2 had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he ksat down at the right hand of God, ¹³waiting from that time luntil his enemies should be made a footstool for his feet. ¹⁴For by a single offering mhe has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified.

¹⁵And the Holy Spirit also bears witness to us; for after saying,

¹⁶n“This is the covenant that I will make with them

after those days, declares the Lord:

I will put my laws on their hearts,

and write them on their minds,”

¹⁷then he adds,

o“I will remember their sins and their lawless deeds no more.”

¹⁸Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin.
