Hebrews 13:10-12
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
10 We have an altar[a] from which those who serve the tabernacle have no right to eat. 11 The bodies of the animals whose blood the high priest brings into the sanctuary as a sin offering are burned outside the camp.(A) 12 Therefore, Jesus also suffered outside the gate, to consecrate the people by his own blood.(B)
