Old Testament

New Testament

Hebrews 10:16-30 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

16. "And this is the testament which I will commit to them after those days, says the Lord. I will instill my laws in their hearts, and I will inscribe my laws on their minds.

17. And I will no longer remember their sins and iniquities."

18. Now, when there is a remission of these things, there is no longer an oblation for sin.

19. And so, brothers, have faith in the entrance into the Holy of Holies by the blood of Christ,

20. and in the new and living Way, which he has initiated for us by the veil, that is, by his flesh,

21. and in the Great Priest over the house of God.

22. So, let us draw near with a true heart, in the fullness of faith, having hearts cleansed from an evil conscience, and bodies absolved with clean water.

23. Let us hold fast to the confession of our hope, without wavering, for he who has promised is faithful.

24. And let us be considerate of one another, so as to prompt ourselves to charity and to good works,

25. not deserting our assembly, as some are accustomed to do, but consoling one another, and even more so as you see that the day is approaching.

26. For if we sin willingly, after receiving knowledge of the truth, there is no sacrifice remaining for sins,

27. but instead, a certain terrible expectation of judgment, and the rage of a fire that shall consume its adversaries.

28. If someone dies for acting against the law of Moses, and is shown no compassion because of two or three witnesses,

29. how much more, do you think, someone would deserve worse punishments, if he has tread upon the Son of God, and has treated the blood of the testament, by which he was sanctified, as unclean, and has acted with disgrace toward the Spirit of grace?

30. For we know that he has said: "Vengeance is mine, and I will repay," and again, "The Lord will judge his people."
