Hebrews 10:4
10:4 For the blood of bulls and goats cannot take away sins. 1
Hebrews 10:10-14
10:10 By his will 2 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 3 serving and offering the same sacrifices again and again – sacrifices that can never take away sins.
10:12 But when this priest 4 had offered one sacrifice for sins for all time, he sat down at the right hand 5 of God,
10:13 where he is now waiting 6 until his enemies are made a footstool for his feet. 7
10:14 For by one offering he has perfected for all time those who are made holy.
1 tn Grk “for it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.”

3 tn Or “daily,” “every day.”
4 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.
