Hebrews 10:1 in other translations
For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.
For the law is only a shadow of the good things to come, not the realities themselves. It can never, by the same sacrifices offered year after year, make perfect those who draw near to worship.
For the law, having a shadow of the good to come, not the very image of the things, can never with the same sacrifices year by year, which they offer continually, make perfect those who draw near.

In context
1 For the law, having a shadow of the good things to come, not the very image of the things, by the selfsame sacrifices which they offer continually every year, can never make the comers thereunto perfect.
2 For then they would have ceased to be offered: because the worshippers once cleansed should have no conscience of sin any longer.
3 But in them there is made a commemoration of sins every year:
4 For it is impossible that with the blood of oxen and goats sin should be taken away.
