5 “He should take from the assembly of the Israelites+ two young male goats for a sin offering and one ram for a burnt offering.

17 Consequently, he had to become like his “brothers” in all respects,+ so that he could become a merciful and faithful high priest in things relating to God,+ in order to offer a propitiatory sacrifice+ for the sins of the people.+

5 For every high priest taken from among men is appointed in their behalf over the things relating to God,+ so that he may offer gifts and sacrifices for sins.+ 2 He is able to deal compassionately with the ignorant and erring ones, since he too is confronted with his own weakness, 3 and because of that he must make offerings for his own sins just as he does for those of the people.+

26 Otherwise, he would have to suffer often from the founding of the world. But now he has manifested himself once for all time at the conclusion of the systems of things to do away with sin through the sacrifice of himself.+

2 My little children, I am writing you these things so that you may not commit a sin. And yet, if anyone does commit a sin, we have a helper* with the Father, Jesus Christ,+ a righteous one.+ 2 And he is a propitiatory sacrifice*+ for our sins,+ yet not for ours only but also for the whole world’s.+
