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
International Standard Version
The Messiah Has Offered a Superior Sacrifice
11 But when the Messiah[a] came as a high priest of the good things that have come,[b] he went[c] through the greater and more perfect tent that was not made by human[d] hands and that is not a part of this creation. 12 Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with his own blood he went into the Most Holy Place once for all and secured our eternal redemption. 13 For if the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkled on those who are unclean purifies them physically, 14 how much more will the blood of the Messiah,[e] who through the eternal Spirit[f] offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our[g] consciences from dead actions so that we may serve the living God!
