   ⁵Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:

   ⁶In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.

   ⁷Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.

   ⁸Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law;

   ⁹Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.

   ¹⁰By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
