Exegesis
The prepositional phrase hyper pollōn {ὑπὲρ πολλῶν | hy-PÉR pol-LÔN} “for many” uses hyper with the genitive to express benefactive substitution, indicating on whose behalf the blood is poured out. In translation, the demonstrative subject is preserved with “This is My blood,” the genitive relation tēs diathēkēs with “of the covenant,” and the articular participle is most naturally rendered as a relative clause, “which is being poured out / which is poured out for many,” maintaining the sacrificial nuance and the benefactive scope.
In context — Mark 14:24
And He said to them, “This is My blood of the covenant , which is being poured out for many.”
