²¹ God made him who had no sin^(A) to be sin^[a] for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.^(B)

¹⁵ For we do not have a high priest^(A) who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are^(B)—yet he did not sin.^(C)

²⁶ Such a high priest^(A) truly meets our need—one who is holy, blameless, pure, set apart from sinners,^(B) exalted above the heavens.^{(C) 27} Unlike the other high priests, he does not need to offer sacrifices^(D) day after day, first for his own sins,^(E) and then for the sins of the people. He sacrificed for their sins once for all^(F) when he offered himself.^(G)

⁵ But you know that he appeared so that he might take away our sins.^(A) And in him is no sin.^(B)
