Hebrews 9:16LXX

14How 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?

15And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.

16For where a testament , there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.

17For a testament of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.

18Whereupon neither the first was dedicated without blood.
