Hebrews 9:16-18

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁶ For where there is a testament, the death of the testator must of necessity come in.

¹⁷ For a testament is of force, after men are dead: otherwise it is as yet of no strength, whilst the testator liveth.

¹⁸ Whereupon neither was the first indeed dedicated without blood.
