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
Revised Standard Version
11 But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come,[a] then through the greater and more perfect tent[b] (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation) 12 he entered once for all into the Holy Place, taking[c] not the blood of goats and calves but his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption. 13 For if the sprinkling of defiled persons with the blood of goats and bulls and with the ashes of a heifer sanctifies for the purification of the flesh, 14 how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify your[d] conscience from dead works to serve the living God.
