16 For where a Testament is, there must be the death of him that made the Testament. 17 For the Testament is confirmed when men are dead: for it is yet of no force as long as he that made it, is aliue. 18 Wherefore neither was the first ordeined without blood. 19 For when Moses had spoken euery precept to the people, according to the Law, he tooke the blood of calues and of goates, with water and purple wooll and hyssope, and sprinckled both the booke, and all the people, 20 Saying, This is the blood of the Testament, which God hath appointed vnto you.
