Hebrews 9:24-26
New International Version
24 For Christ did not enter a sanctuary made with human hands that was only a copy of the true one;(A) he entered heaven itself,(B) now to appear for us in God’s presence.(C) 25 Nor did he enter heaven to offer himself again and again, the way the high priest enters the Most Holy Place(D) every year with blood that is not his own.(E) 26 Otherwise Christ would have had to suffer many times since the creation of the world.(F) But he has appeared(G) once for all(H) at the culmination of the ages to do away with sin by the sacrifice of himself.(I)
Hebrews 9:24-26
New King James Version
24 For (A)Christ has not entered the holy places made with hands, which are [a]copies of (B)the true, but into heaven itself, now (C)to appear in the presence of God for us; 25 not that He should offer Himself often, as (D)the high priest enters the Most Holy Place every year with blood of another— 26 He then would have had to suffer often since the foundation of the world; but now, once at the end of the ages, He has appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.

English Standard Version
24 For Christ has entered, not into holy places (A)made with hands, which are copies of the true things, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God (B)on our behalf. 25 Nor was it to offer himself repeatedly, as (C)the high priest enters (D)the holy places every year with blood not his own, 26 for then he would have had to suffer repeatedly since the foundation of the world. But as it is, (E)he has appeared (F)once for all (G)at the end of the ages to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.
