Hebrews 9:5-7

Good News Translation

^5 (A)Above the Box were the winged creatures representing God's presence, with their wings spread over the place where sins were forgiven. But now is not the time to explain everything in detail.

^6 (B)This is how those things have been arranged. The priests go into the outer tent every day to perform their duties, ^7 (C)but only the high priest goes into the inner tent, and he does so only once a year. He takes with him blood which he offers to God on behalf of himself and for the sins which the people have committed without knowing they were sinning.
