Heb 5
1
For every high priest, being taken from among men, is appointed for men in things
pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins:
2
who can bear gently with the ignorant and erring, for that he himself also is compassed
with infirmity;
3
and by reason thereof is bound, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for
sins.
4
And no man takes the honor to himself, but when he is called of God, even as was Aaron.
5
So Christ also glorified not himself to be made a high priest, but he who spoke to
him, You are my Son, This day have I engendered you:
6
as he says also in another [place,] You are a priest for ever After the order of Melchizedek.
7
Who in the days of his flesh, having offered up prayers and supplications with strong
crying and tears to him whom was able to save him from death, and having been heard
for his godly fear,
8
though he was a Son, yet learned obedience by the things which he suffered;
9
and having been made perfect, he became to all them that obey him the author of eternal
salvation;
10
named of God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek.
11
Of whom we have many things to say, and hard of interpretation, seeing you are become
dull of hearing.
12
For when by reason of the time you ought to be teachers, you have need again that
some one teach you the rudiments of the first principles of the oracles of God; and
are become such as have need of milk, and not of solid food.
13
For every one that partakes of milk is without experience of the word of righteousness;
for he is a babe.
14
But solid food is for full grown men, [even] those who by reason of use have their
senses exercised to discern good and evil.
