Hebrews

Hebrews 10:5–7

⁵Therefore, when Christ came into the world, He said:

“Sacrifice and offering You did not desire,

but a body You prepared for Me.

⁶In burnt offerings and sin offerings

You took no delight.

⁷Then I said, ‘Here I am, it is written about Me in the scroll:

I have come to do Your will, O God.’”^a
