Hebrews 10:9-14 Good News Bible (GNB)

9. Then he said, “Here I am, O God, to do your will.” So God does away with all the old sacrifices and puts the sacrifice of Christ in their place.

10. Because Jesus Christ did what God wanted him to do, we are all purified from sin by the offering that he made of his own body once and for all.

11. Every Jewish priest performs his services every day and offers the same sacrifices many times; but these sacrifices can never take away sins.

12. Christ, however, offered one sacrifice for sins, an offering that is effective for ever, and then he sat down at the right-hand side of God.

13. There he now waits until God puts his enemies as a footstool under his feet.

14. With one sacrifice, then, he has made perfect for ever those who are purified from sin.
