15For this reason he is the mediator of a new covenant,since a death has occurred for the redemption of the transgressionsthat were under the first covenant,that those who have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.· · · verses 16–23 are not read24For Christ hasn’t entered into holy places made with hands,which are representations of the true,but into heaven itself,now to appear in the presence of God for us;25nor yet that he should offer himself often,as the high priest enters into the holy place year by year with blood not his own,26or else he must have suffered often since the foundation of the world.But now once at the end of the ages,he has been revealed to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.27Inasmuch as it is appointed for men to die once,and after this, judgment,28so Christ also, having been offered once to bear the sins of many,will appear a second time,not to deal with sin,but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.

1Sing to the Lord a new song,for he has done marvelous things!His right hand and his holy arm have worked salvation for him.

2The Lord has made known his salvation.He has openly shown his righteousness in the sight of the nations.3He has remembered his loving kindness and his faithfulness toward the house of Israel.

3All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.4Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth!Burst out and sing for joy, yes, sing praises!

5Sing praises to the Lord with the harp,with the harp and the voice of melody.6With trumpets and sound of the ram’s horn,make a joyful noise before the King, the Lord.

22The scribes who came down from Jerusalem said,“He has Beelzebul,”and, “By the prince of the demons he casts out the demons.”

23He summoned them and said to them in parables,“How can Satan cast out Satan?24If a kingdom is divided against itself,that kingdom cannot stand.25If a house is divided against itself,that house cannot stand.26If Satan has risen up against himself,and is divided, he can’t stand, but has an end.27But no one can enter into the house of the strong man to plunder unless he first binds the strong man;then he will plunder his house.

28“Most certainly I tell you,all sins of the descendants of man will be forgiven,including their blasphemies with which they may blaspheme;29but whoever may blaspheme against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness,but is subject to eternal condemnation.”30— because they said, “He has an unclean spirit.”
