New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
9 then he added, “See, I have come to do your will.” He abolishes the first in order to establish the second. 10 And it is by God’s will[a] that we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.(A)

But as it is, he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to remove sin by the sacrifice of himself.(B)
