Hebrews 9:14-16
English Standard Version
14 how much more will (A)the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit (B)offered himself without blemish to God, (C)purify our[a] conscience (D)from dead works (E)to serve the living God.
15 Therefore he is (F)the mediator of a new covenant, so that (G)those who are called may (H)receive the promised eternal inheritance, (I)since a death has occurred that redeems them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant.[b] 16 For where a will is involved, the death of the one who made it must be established.

Hebrews 9:14-16
King James Version
14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
15 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.
16 For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.

Hebreeën 9:14-16
Het Boek
14 hoeveel te meer zal dan het bloed van Christus ons hart en leven veranderen. Hij, die Zelf zonder zonden is, heeft door de hulp van de eeuwige Geest Zich gewillig aan God overgegeven om voor onze zonden te sterven. Daardoor wordt ons geweten gezuiverd van daden die tot de dood leiden en kunnen wij de levende God dienen. 15 Hij heeft ervoor gezorgd dat er een nieuw verbond kwam, zodat iedereen mag komen om te genieten van de rijkdom die God beloofd heeft. Christus is gestorven om hen te redden van de straf die zij verdienden door de zonden die zij onder het oude verbond hadden gedaan.
16 Met dit verbond dat God met ons heeft gesloten, is het net als met een testament, er moet eerst iemand sterven, voordat het van kracht wordt.

Hebrews 9:14-16
New International Version
14 How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit(A) offered himself(B) unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences(C) from acts that lead to death,[a](D) so that we may serve the living God!(E)
15 For this reason Christ is the mediator(F) of a new covenant,(G) that those who are called(H) may receive the promised(I) eternal inheritance(J)—now that he has died as a ransom to set them free from the sins committed under the first covenant.(K)
16 In the case of a will,[b] it is necessary to prove the death of the one who made it,
