New Covenant (Hebrews 9:16-22) New Living and Good News Translations

NEW LIVING TRANSLATION
16  Now when someone leaves a will, it is necessary to prove that the person who made it is dead.
17  The will goes into effect only after the person’s death. While the person who made it is still alive, the will cannot be put into effect.
18  That is why even the first covenant was put into effect with the blood of an animal.
19  For after Moses had read each of God’s commandments to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, along with water, and sprinkled both the book of God’s law and all the people, using hyssop branches and scarlet wool.
20  Then he said, “This blood confirms the covenant God has made with you.”
21  And in the same way, he sprinkled blood on the Tabernacle and on everything used for worship.
22  In fact, according to the law of Moses, nearly everything was purified with blood. For without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness.

GOOD NEWS TRANSLATION
16  In the case of a will it is necessary to prove that the person who made it has died, 
17  for a will means nothing while the person who made it is alive; it goes into effect only after his death.
18  That is why even the first covenant went into effect only with the use of blood. 
19  First, Moses proclaimed to the people all the commandments as set forth in the Law. Then he took the blood of bulls and goats, mixed it with water, and sprinkled it on the book of the Law and all the people, using a sprig of hyssop and some red wool. 
20  He said, “This is the blood which seals the covenant that God has commanded you to obey.” 
21  In the same way Moses also sprinkled the blood on the Sacred Tent and over all the things used in worship. 
22  Indeed, according to the Law almost everything is purified by blood, and sins are forgiven only if blood is poured out.
