^11 (A)Every Jewish priest performs his services every day and offers the same sacrifices many times; but these sacrifices can never take away sins. ^12 (B)Christ, however, offered one sacrifice for sins, an offering that is effective forever, and then he sat down at the right side of God. ¹³ There he now waits until God puts his enemies as a footstool under his feet. ¹⁴ With one sacrifice, then, he has made perfect forever those who are purified from sin.

¹⁸ So when these have been forgiven, an offering to take away sins is no longer needed.
