The New Covenant
11 But when Christ appeared as a (A)high priest of the (B)good things [a]to come, He entered through (C)the greater and more perfect tabernacle, (D)not made with hands, that is to say, (E)not of this creation, 12 and not through (F)the blood of goats and calves, but (G)through His own blood, He (H)entered the holy places (I)once for all, [b]having obtained (J)eternal redemption. 13 For if (K)the blood of goats and bulls and (L)the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled sanctify for the [c]cleansing of the flesh, 14 how much more will (M)the blood of Christ, who through [d](N)the eternal Spirit (O)offered Himself without blemish to God, (P)cleanse [e]your conscience from (Q)dead works to serve (R)the living God?

Hebrews 9:11-14
Common English Bible
11 But Christ has appeared as the high priest of the good things that have happened. He passed through the greater and more perfect meeting tent, which isn’t made by human hands (that is, it’s not a part of this world). 12 He entered the holy of holies once for all by his own blood, not by the blood of goats or calves, securing our deliverance for all time. 13 If the blood of goats and bulls and the sprinkled ashes of cows made spiritually contaminated people holy and clean, 14 how much more will the blood of Jesus wash our consciences clean from dead works in order to serve the living God? He offered himself to God through the eternal Spirit as a sacrifice without any flaw.
