Hebrews 10:10-18

10:10 By his will ¹  we have been made holy through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. 10:11 And every priest stands day after day ²  serving and offering the same sacrifices again and again – sacrifices that can never take away sins. 10:12 But when this priest ³  had offered one sacrifice for sins for all time, he sat down at the right hand ⁴  of God, 10:13 where he is now waiting ⁵  until his enemies are made a footstool for his feet. ⁶  10:14 For by one offering he has perfected for all time those who are made holy. 10:15 And the Holy Spirit also witnesses to us, for after saying, ⁷  10:16 “This is the covenant that I will establish with them after those days, says the Lord. I will put ⁸  my laws on their hearts and I will inscribe them on their minds,” ⁹  10:17 then he says, ¹⁰  “Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no longer.” ¹¹  10:18 Now where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin.

¹ tn Grk “by which will.” Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

² tn Or “daily,” “every day.”

³ tn Grk “this one.” This pronoun refers to Jesus, but “this priest” was used in the translation to make the contrast between the Jewish priests in v. 11 and Jesus as a priest clearer in English.

⁵ tn Grk “from then on waiting.”

⁶ sn An allusion to Ps 110:1.
