  1. 2 Corinthians 5:21 Or be a sin offering

You see, at just the right time,(A) when we were still powerless,(B) Christ died for the ungodly.(C) Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.(D)

Since we have now been justified(E) by his blood,(F) how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath(G) through him! 10 For if, while we were God’s enemies,(H) we were reconciled(I) to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!(J)

10 Yet it was the Lord’s will(A) to crush(B) him and cause him to suffer,(C)
    and though the Lord makes[a] his life an offering for sin,(D)
he will see his offspring(E) and prolong his days,
    and the will of the Lord will prosper(F) in his hand.
11 After he has suffered,(G)
    he will see the light(H) of life[b] and be satisfied[c];
by his knowledge[d] my righteous servant(I) will justify(J) many,
    and he will bear their iniquities.(K)
12 Therefore I will give him a portion among the great,[e](L)
    and he will divide the spoils(M) with the strong,[f]
because he poured out his life unto death,(N)
    and was numbered with the transgressors.(O)
For he bore(P) the sin of many,(Q)
    and made intercession(R) for the transgressors.

12 He did not enter by means of the blood of goats and calves;(A) but he entered the Most Holy Place(B) once for all(C) by his own blood,(D) thus obtaining[a] eternal redemption. 13 The blood of goats and bulls(E) and the ashes of a heifer(F) sprinkled on those who are ceremonially unclean sanctify them so that they are outwardly clean. 14 How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit(G) offered himself(H) unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences(I) from acts that lead to death,[b](J) so that we may serve the living God!(K)

15 For this reason Christ is the mediator(L) of a new covenant,(M) that those who are called(N) may receive the promised(O) eternal inheritance(P)—now that he has died as a ransom to set them free from the sins committed under the first covenant.(Q)
