Hebrews 9:18
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
That is why even the first covenant was not put into effect without blood.
In context
16 In the case of a will, it is necessary to establish the death of the one who made it,
17 because a will does not take effect until the one who made it has died; it cannot be executed while he is still alive.
18 That is why even the first covenant was not put into effect without blood.
19 For when Moses had proclaimed every commandment of the law to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, along with water, scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled the scroll and all the people,
20 saying, “This is the blood of the covenant, which God has commanded you to keep.”
