Hebrews 7:26-28

Jesus offered himself as the complete sacrifice for sins

26 Jesus is the kind of great priest that we need. He completely belongs to God. He has never done anything wrong. He is completely good and clean. He is separate from everyone who does wrong things. God has raised him up to the most important place in heaven. 27 Jesus is not like the Levite priests. They needed to offer sacrifices to God every day. First, they offered sacrifices so that God would forgive their own sins. Then they offered sacrifices on behalf of the other people, so that God would forgive their sins too. But Jesus offered one sacrifice for all time. That sacrifice was himself.

28 In the old covenant, Moses' laws decided who would become leaders of the priests. Because those men are weak, they often do wrong things. But God's strong promise came after the Law that he gave to Moses. With that promise, God chose his Son to be his great priest. And his Son has become everything that God wants him to be, completely and for ever.
