The sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel.
“Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!”—The Lamb that was slain.— For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins. Consequently, when Christ came into the world, he said, “Sacrifices and offerings you have not desired, but a body have you prepared for me…. And by that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
And Abel… brought of the firstborn of his flock and of their fat portions. And the Lord had regard for Abel and his offering.—Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.
Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.—Therefore, brothers… we have confidence to enter the holy places by the blood of Jesus.

Who considers the power of your anger?
Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour. And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?” that is, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”—The Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all.
There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.—Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.—Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us.
God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him. In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.—So that he might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.
11 Who considers the power of your anger,
and your wrath according to the fear of you?

we have turned—every one—to his own way;
rand the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.
