Hebrews 9:22-28 In fact, under the law, almost everything is purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood no forgiveness is granted.

Williams⁽ⁱ⁾ ²² In fact, under the law, almost everything is purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood no forgiveness is granted. ²³ So, on the one hand, the copies of the original things in heaven had to be purified with such sacrifices; but on the other hand, the original things themselves in heaven with better sacrifices than these. ²⁴ For it was not a sanctuary made by human hands, a mere copy of the true one, that Christ entered, but it was into heaven itself that He went, in order now to appear for us in the very presence of God. ²⁵ And He does not enter to offer Himself over and over again, as the high priest enters the sanctuary year after year with blood that is not his own; ²⁶ for, if that had been the case, He would have had to suffer over and over again, ever since the creation of the world. But, as it is, once at the close of the ages He has appeared, to put away sin by His sacrifice. ²⁷ Indeed, just as men must die but once and after that be judged, ²⁸ so Christ was offered once for all to take away the sins of many, but again He will appear, without having anything to do with sin, to save those who are eagerly waiting for Him to bring them final salvation.
