¹³ Christ ^(A)redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us—for it is written, ^(B)“Cursed is everyone who is hanged ^(C)on a tree”—

^24 (A)He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we ^(B)might die to sin and ^(C)live to righteousness. ^(D)By his wounds you have been healed.

^23 (A)his body shall not remain all night on the tree, but you shall bury him the same day, for ^(B)a hanged man is cursed by God. ^(C)You shall not defile your land that the Lord your God is giving you for an inheritance.

¹⁵ Therefore he is ^(A)the mediator of a new covenant, so that ^(B)those who are called may ^(C)receive the promised eternal inheritance, ^(D)since a death has occurred that redeems them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant.^[a]

¹² he ^(A)entered ^(B)once for all into the holy places, not by means of ^(C)the blood of goats and calves but ^(D)by means of his own blood, ^(E)thus securing an eternal redemption.

¹⁸ knowing that you ^(A)were ransomed from ^(B)the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, ¹⁹ but ^(C)with the precious blood of Christ, like that of ^(D)a lamb ^(E)without blemish or spot. ²⁰ He was foreknown before the foundation of the world but ^(F)was made manifest ^(G)in the last times for the sake of you ^21 (H)who through him are believers in God, ^(I)who raised him from the dead and ^(J)gave him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.

⁹ And they sang ^(A)a new song, saying,

⁴ For ^(A)it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.

⁵ Consequently, ^(B)when Christ^[a] came into the world, he said,

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

²⁸ for ^(A)this is my ^(B)blood of the^[a] covenant, which is poured out for ^(C)many ^(D)for the forgiveness of sins.
