Hebrews 10:16-23 Good News Bible (GNB)

16. “This is the covenant that I will make with themin the days to come, says the Lord:I will put my laws in their heartsand write them on their minds.”

17. And then he says, “I will not remember their sins and evil deeds any longer.”

18. So when these have been forgiven, an offering to take away sins is no longer needed.

19. We have, then, my brothers and sisters, complete freedom to go into the Most Holy Place by means of the death of Jesus.

20. He opened for us a new way, a living way, through the curtain — that is, through his own body.

21. We have a great priest in charge of the house of God.

22. So let us come near to God with a sincere heart and a sure faith, with hearts that have been purified from a guilty conscience and with bodies washed with clean water.

23. Let us hold on firmly to the hope we profess, because we can trust God to keep his promise.
