Hebrews 10:9 in context

The verses around it, from Hebrews 10.

5 Therefore, when Christ came into the world, He said: “Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but a body You prepared for Me.

6 In burnt offerings and sin offerings You took no delight.

7 Then I said, ‘Here I am, it is written about Me in the scroll: I have come to do Your will, O God.’”

8 In the passage above He says, “Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings You did not desire, nor did You delight in them” (although they are offered according to the law).

9 Then He adds, “Here I am, I have come to do Your will.” He takes away the first to establish the second.

10 And by that will, we have been sanctified through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

11 Day after day every priest stands to minister and to offer again and again the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.

12 But when this Priest had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, He sat down at the right hand of God.

13 Since that time, He waits for His enemies to be made a footstool for His feet,
