Hebrews 9:18-20

New Catholic Bible

¹⁸ Hence, not even the first covenant was inaugurated without blood. ¹⁹ For when all the commandments of the Law had been proclaimed by Moses to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, together with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people, ²⁰ saying, “This is the blood of the covenant that God has commanded you to observe.”
