Every for high priest, from among men being taken, on behalf of men is appointed, in things relating to God that he may offer gifts both and sacrifices for sins,

to exercise forbearance being able, with those being ignorant and with those going astray, since also he himself is encompassed by weakness;

and because of this he is obligated, just as for the people, so also for himself, to offer sacrifices for sins.

And not upon himself anyone takes the honor, but rather being called by God, just as also Aaron.

So also Christ not Himself did glorify to become a high priest, but the [One] having said to Him: Son of Me are You, I today have begotten You.”

Just as also in another [place] He says: You [are] a priest to the age, according to the order of Melchizedek.”

[He] in the days of the flesh of Him, prayers both and supplications, to the [One] being able to save Him from death, with crying loud and tears having offered up, and having been heard, because of reverence,

though being a Son, He learned from [the] things He suffered, obedience,

and having been perfected, He became to all those obeying Him, [the] author of salvation eternal,

having been designated by God a high priest according to the order of Melchizedek.

Concerning this [there is] much from us speech, and difficult in interpretation to speak, since sluggish you have become in the hearings.

Even for you ought to be teachers by the time, again need of you have [one] to teach you what [is] the principles of the beginning of the oracles of God; and you have become need [those] having of milk, and not of solid food.

Everyone for who is partaking [only] of milk [is] inexperienced in [the] word of righteousness; an infant for he is;

[for the] mature however is the solid food, for those by constant use the senses trained, who are having [ability] to distinguish good both and evil.
