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.' " [Psa 40:6-8] (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 10:5-10 NWT
. . .Hence when he comes into the world he says: "'Sacrifice and offering you did not want, but you prepared a body for me. 6 You did not approve of whole burnt offerings and sin [offering].' 7 Then I said, 'Look! I am come (in the roll of the book it is written about me) to do your will, O God.'" [Psa 40:6-8] 8 After first saying: 'You did not want nor did you approve of sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sin [offering]"-[sacrifices] that are offered according to the Law- 9 then he actually says: "Look! I am come to do your will." He does away with what is first that he may establish what is second. 10 By the said "will" we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all time.
Hebrews 10:5-10 ALT
(5) 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.'" [Psa 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 10:5-10 MKJV
(5) Therefore when He comes into the world, He says, "Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but You have prepared a body for Me.
(6) In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin You have had no pleasure.
(7) Then I said, Lo, I come (in the volume of the Book it is written of Me) to do Your will, O God." [Psa 40:6-8]
(8) Above, when He said, "Sacrifice and offering, and burnt offerings and offering for sin You did not desire, neither did You have pleasure in them" (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 so that He may establish the second.
(10) By this 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.
