Hebrews 10:14

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,

because by a single offering He has made perfect for all time those who are being sanctified.

15 The Holy Spirit also testifies to us about this. First He says:

16 “This is the covenant I will make with them after those days, declares the Lord. I will put My laws in their hearts and inscribe them on their minds.”

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
