First Reading

The Book of Exodus 24: 3-8

24:3	Daarom, Moses went and explained to the people all the words of the Lord, as well as the judgments. And all the people responded with one voice: “We will do all the words of the Lord, which he has spoken.”
24:4	Then Moses wrote all the words of the Lord. En 's ochtends opstaan, he built an altar at the base of the mountain, with twelve titles according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
24:5	And he sent youths from the sons of Israel, and they offered holocausts, and they immolated calves as peace-offerings to the Lord.
24:6	And so Moses took one half part of the blood, and he put it into bowls. Then the remaining part he poured over the altar.
24:7	And taking up the book of the covenant, he read it in the hearing of the people, wie zei: “All that the Lord has spoken, we will do, and we will be obedient.”
24:8	In waarheid, taking up the blood, he sprinkled it on the people, en hij zei, “This is the blood of the covenant, which the Lord has formed with you concerning all these words.”

Second Reading

The Letter to the Hebrews 9: 11-15

9:11	But Christ, standing as the High Priest of future good things, through a greater and more perfect tabernacle, one not made by hand, dat is, not of this creation,
9:12	entered once into the Holy of Holies, having obtained eternal redemption, neither by the blood of goats, nor of calves, but by his own blood.
9:13	For if the blood of goats and oxen, and the ashes of a calf, when these are sprinkled, sanctify those who have been defiled, in order to cleanse the flesh,
9:14	how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the Holy Spirit has offered himself, immaculate, to God, cleanse our conscience from dead works, in order to serve the living God?
9:15	And thus he is the Mediator of the new testament, zodat, by his death, he intercedes for the redemption of those transgressions which were under the former testament, so that those who have been called may receive the promise of an eternal inheritance.
