- And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I shall place you in your own land: then shall ye know that I the LORD have spoken it, and performed it, saith the LORD.
- 15
- The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
- 16
- Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim and for all the house of Israel his companions:
- 17
- And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine hand.
- 18
- And when the children of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shew us what thou meanest by these?
- 19
- Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand.
- 20
- And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thine hand before their eyes.
- 21
- And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:
- 22
- And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all.
- 23
- Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will save them out of all their dwellingplaces, wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God.
- 24
- And David my servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them.
- 25
- And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, even they, and their children, and their children's children for ever: and my servant David shall be their prince for ever.
- 26
- Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore.
- 27
- My tabernacle also shall be with them: yea, I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
- 28
- And the heathen shall know that I the LORD do sanctify Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore.

- 1
- And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these sayings, he said unto his disciples,
- 2
- Ye know that after two days is the feast of the passover, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.
- 3
- Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,

- 7
- There came unto him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured it on his head, as he sat at meat.
- 8
- But when his disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is this waste?
- 9
- For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.

- 18
- For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
- 19
- Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
- 20
- For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
- 21
- Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
- 22
- Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
- 23
- And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
- 24
- Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
- 25
- Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
- 26
- For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

Galatians 3:15-29
- 15
- Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man's covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto.
- 16
- Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.
- 17
- And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.
- 18
- For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.
- 19
- Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.
- 20
- Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one.
- 21
- Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law.
- 22
- But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.
- 23
- But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
- 24
- Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
- 25
- But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.
- 26
- For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
- 27
- For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
- 28
- There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
- 29
- And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

- 1
- And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;
- 2
- Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
- 3
- Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.
- 4
- But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
- 5
- Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)
- 6
- And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:
- 7
- That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.
- 8
- For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
- 9
- Not of works, lest any man should boast.
- 10
- For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
- 11
- Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;
- 12
- That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:
- 13
- But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
- 14
- For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;
- 15
- Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;
- 16
- And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:
- 17
- And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.
- 18
- For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.
- 19
- Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
- 20
- And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
- 21

Hebrews 8:1-13
- 1
- Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens;
- 2
- A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man.
- 3
- For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is of necessity that this man have somewhat also to offer.
- 4
- For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law:
- 5
- Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount.
- 6
- But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.
- 7
- For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.
- 8
- For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:
- 9
- Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.
- 10
- For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
- 11
- And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.
- 12
- For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.
- 13
- In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.

KJV NASB NIV
Hebrews 9:1-28
- 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.
Hebrews 9:1-28

Hebrews 10:1-39
- 1
- For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.
- 2
- For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins.
- 3
- But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year.
- 4
- For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.
- 5
- Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:
- 6
- In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.
- 7
- Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.
- 8
- Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law;
- 9
- Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.
- 10
- By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
- 11
- And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins:
- 12
- But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;
- 13
- From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.
- 14
- For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.
- 15
- Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before,
- 16
- This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;
- 17
- And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.
- 18
- Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
- 19
- Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,
- 20
- By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;
- 21
- And having an high priest over the house of God;
- 22
- Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.
- 23
- Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)
- 24
- And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:
- 25
- Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
- 26
- For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
- 27
- But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
- 28
- He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:
- 29
- Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?
- 30
- For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.
- 31
- It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
- 32
- But call to remembrance the former days, in which, after ye were illuminated, ye endured a great fight of afflictions;
- 33
- Partly, whilst ye were made a gazingstock both by reproaches and afflictions; and partly, whilst ye became companions of them that were so used.
- 34
- For ye had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that ye have in heaven a better and an enduring substance.
- 35
- Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.
- 36
- For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.
- 37
- For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry.
- 38
- Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.
- 39
- But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.

- And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more:
- 20
- (For they could not endure that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart:
- 21
- And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:)
- 22
- But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,
- 23
- To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,
- 24
- And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things that that of Abel.
