Hebrews 10:1 & 5-10 GNB The Jewish Law is not a full and faithful model of the real things; it is only a faint outline of the good things to come. The same sacrifices are (required to be) offered forever, year after year. How can the Law, then, by means of these sacrifices make perfect the people who come to God?
Hebrews 10:5-10 GNB For this reason, when Christ was about to come into the world, he said to God: "You do not want sacrifices and offerings, but you have prepared a body for me. (6) You are not pleased with animals burned whole on the altar or with sacrifices to take away sins. (7) Then I said, 'Here I am, to do your will, O God, just as it is written of me in the book of the Law.' " [Psalm 40:6-8; Psa. 39:7-9] (8) First he said, "You neither want nor are you pleased with sacrifices and offerings or with animals burned on the altar and the sacrifices to take away sins." He said this even though all these sacrifices are offered according to the Law. (9) Then he said, "Here I am, O God, to do your will." So God does away with all the old sacrifices and puts the sacrifice of Christ in their place. (10) Because Jesus Christ did what God wanted him to do, we are all purified from sin by the offering that he made of his own body once and for all.
Hebrews 10:1 & 5-10 ESV For since the law has but a shadow of the good things to come instead of the true form of these realities, it can never, by the same sacrifices that are continually offered every year, make perfect those who draw near.
Hebrews 10:5-10 ESV Consequently, when Christ came into the world, he said, "Sacrifices and offerings you have not desired, but a body have you prepared for me; (6) in burnt offerings and sin offerings you have taken no pleasure. (7) Then I said, 'Behold, I have come to do your will, O God, as it is written of me in the scroll of the book.'" [Psalm 40:6-8; Psa. 39:7-9] (8) When he said above, "You have neither desired nor taken pleasure in sacrifices and offerings and burnt offerings and sin offerings" (these are offered according to the law), (9) then he added, "Behold, I have come to do your will." He does away with the first in order to establish the second. (10) And by that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
Hebrews 10:1 & 5-10 ALT For the Law having [only] a shadow of the good [things] coming, [and] not the very form of things, by the same sacrifices which they offer continually every year, they are never able to make the ones approaching perfect.
Hebrews 10:5-10 ALT For this reason, entering into the world, He says, "Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but a body You prepared for me; (6) in offerings which are entirely burnt and [sacrifices] concerning sin, You took no pleasure. (7) Then I said, 'Look! I have come (in a roll of a scroll it has been written concerning Me) to do Your will, O God.'" [Psalm 40:6-8] (8) [After] saying above, "Sacrifice and offering and offerings which are entirely burnt and [sacrifices] concerning sin You did not desire, nor took pleasure in" (which according to the Law are offered), [Psalm 40:6 & 7] (9) then He has said, "Look! I have come to do Your will, O God." He abolishes the first so that He shall establish the second, [Psalm 40:8] (10) by which will we have been sanctified, the [ones] through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all time!
Hebrews 10:1 & 5-10 LITV For the Law had a shadow of the coming good things, not the image itself of those things. Appearing year by year with the same sacrifices, which they offer continually, they never are able to perfect the ones drawing near.
Hebrews 10:5-10 LITV For this reason, coming into the world, He says, "Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but You prepared a body for Me. (6) You did not delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices concerning sins." (7) "Then I said, Lo, I come, in the heading of the Book it was written concerning Me, to do Your will, O God." LXX-Psa. 39:7-9; MT-Psa. 40:8 (8) Above, saying, "You did not desire nor were pleased with sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and sacrifices concerning sins," (which are offered according to the Law), (9) then He said, "Lo, I come to do Your will, O God." He takes away the first in order that He may set up the second; (10) by which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

You will note the reference windows often include more than one translation of the Bible. The reason is to strive to gain the best possible understanding of the original Hebrew and Greek. Since we don't speak those languages, we rely on those who have come before and made the effort to translate those texts into English for us. Considering several translations gives the benefit of the understanding of several translation committees or individuals.
