Hebrews 10:6-18 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

6. Holocausts for sin were not pleasing to you.

7. Then I said, 'Behold, I draw near.' At the head of the book, it has been written of me that I should do your will, O God."

8. In the above, by saying, "Sacrifices, and oblations, and holocausts for sin, you did not want, nor are those things pleasing to you, which are offered according to the law;

9. then I said, 'Behold, I have come to do your will, O God,' " he takes away the first, so that he may establish what follows.

10. For by this will, we have been sanctified, through the one time oblation of the body of Jesus Christ.

11. And certainly, every priest stands by, ministering daily, and frequently offering the same sacrifices, which are never able to take away sins.

12. But this man, offering one sacrifice for sins, sits at the right hand of God forever,

13. awaiting that time when his enemies will be made his footstool.

14. For, by one oblation, he has brought to fulfillment, for all time, those who are sanctified.

15. Now the Holy Spirit also testifies for us about this. For afterward, he said:

16. "And this is the testament which I will commit to them after those days, says the Lord. I will instill my laws in their hearts, and I will inscribe my laws on their minds.

17. And I will no longer remember their sins and iniquities."

18. Now, when there is a remission of these things, there is no longer an oblation for sin.
