Par 

1 For the Law, being only a reflection of the blessings to come and not their substance, can never make perfect those who come near by the same sacrifices repeatedly offered year after year.

2 Otherwise, would they not have stopped offering them, because the worshipers, cleansed once for all, would no longer be aware of any sins?

3 Instead, through those sacrifices there is a reminder of sins year after year,

4 for it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.

5 For this reason, the Scriptures say, when the Messiah was about to come into the world: |You did not want sacrifices and offerings, but you prepared a body for me.

6 In burnt offerings and sin offerings you never took delight.

7 Then I said, 'See, I have come to do your will, O God' In the volume of the scroll this is written about me.|
