Hebrews 9:6-10
Legacy Standard Bible
6 Now when these things have been so prepared, the priests (A)are continually entering the first part of the tabernacle performing the divine worship, 7 but into (B)the second, only (C)the high priest enters (D)once a year, (E)not without taking blood, which he (F)offers for himself and for the [a](G)sins of the people committed in ignorance. 8 (H)The Holy Spirit is indicating this, (I)that the way into the holy places has not yet been manifested while that first part of the tabernacle is still standing, 9 which is a symbol for the present time. Accordingly (J)both gifts and sacrifices are offered which (K)cannot make the worshiper perfect in conscience, 10 since they relate only to (L)food and (M)drink and various (N)washings, (O)requirements for the [b]body imposed until (P)a time of reformation.

Holman Christian Standard Bible
6 With these things set up this way, the priests enter the first room repeatedly, performing their ministry.(A) 7 But the high priest alone enters the second room, and he does that only once a year, and never without blood, which he offers for himself and for the sins of the people committed in ignorance.(B) 8 The Holy Spirit was making it clear that the way into the most holy place had not yet been disclosed while the first tabernacle was still standing.(C) 9 This is a symbol for the present time, during which gifts and sacrifices are offered that cannot perfect the worshiper’s conscience.(D) 10 They are physical regulations and only deal with food, drink, and various washings imposed until the time of restoration.(E)
