1 Then verily the first covenant had also ordinances
  of divine service, and a worldly sanctuary.
   2 For there was a tabernacle made; the first,
  wherein was the candlestick, and the table, and the
  shewbread; which is called the sanctuary.
   3 And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is
  called the Holiest of all;
   4 Which had the golden censer, and the ark of the
  covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was
  the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron's rod that
  budded, and the tables of the covenant;
   5 And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the
  mercyseat; of which we cannot now speak particularly.
   6 Now when these things were thus ordained, the
  priests went always into the first tabernacle,
  accomplishing the service of God.
   7 But into the second went the high priest alone
  once every year, not without blood, which he offered
  for himself, and for the errors of the people:
   8 The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into
  the holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while
  as the first tabernacle was yet standing:
   9 Which was a figure for the time then present, in
  which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that
  could not make him that did the service perfect, as
  pertaining to the conscience;
  10 Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers
  washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them
  until the time of reformation.
  11 But Christ being come an high priest of good
  things to come, by a greater and more perfect
  tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not
  of this building;
  12 Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by
  his own blood he entered in once into the holy place,
  having obtained eternal redemption for us.
  13 For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the
  ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean,
  sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh:
  14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who
  through the eternal Spirit offered himself without
  spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to
  serve the living God?
  15 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new
  testament, that by means of death, for the redemption
  of the transgressions that were under the first
  testament, they which are called might receive the
  promise of eternal inheritance.
  16 For where a testament is, there must also of
  necessity be the death of the testator.
  17 For a testament is of force after men are dead:
  otherwise it is of no strength at all while the
  testator liveth.
  18 Whereupon neither the first testament was
  dedicated without blood.
  19 For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the
  people according to the law, he took the blood of
  calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool,
  and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the
  people,
  20 Saying, This is the blood of the testament which
  God hath enjoined unto you.
  21 Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the
  tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry.
  22 And almost all things are by the law purged with
  blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.
  23 It was therefore necessary that the patterns of
  things in the heavens should be purified with these;
  but the heavenly things themselves with better
  sacrifices than these.
  24 For Christ is not entered into the holy places
  made with hands, which are the figures of the true;
  but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence
  of God for us:
  25 Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the
  high priest entereth into the holy place every year
  with blood of others;
  26 For then must he often have suffered since the
  foundation of the world: but now once in the end of
  the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the
  sacrifice of himself.
  27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but
  after this the judgment:
  28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of
  many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear
  the second time without sin unto salvation.
