Chapter 5

1


 

  For every chief priest -- out of men taken -- in behalf of men is set in things [pertaining] to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins,  

 

 

--

2


 

  able to be gentle to those ignorant and going astray, since himself also is compassed with infirmity;  

 

 

--

3


 

  and because of this infirmity he ought, as for the people, so also for himself to offer for sins;  

 

 

--

4


 

  and no one to himself doth take the honour, but he who is called by God, as also Aaron:  

 

 

--

5


 

  so also the Christ did not glorify himself to become chief priest, but He who spake unto him: 'My Son thou art, I to-day have begotten thee;'  

 

 

--

6


 

  as also in another [place] He saith, 'Thou [art] a priest -- to the age, according to the order of Melchisedek;'  

 

 

--

7


 

  who in the days of his flesh both prayers and supplications unto Him who was able to save him from death -- with strong crying and tears -- having offered up, and having been heard in respect to that which he feared,  

 

 

--

8


 

  through being a Son, did learn by the things which he suffered -- the obedience,  

 

 

--

9


 

  and having been made perfect, he did become to all those obeying him a cause of salvation age-during,  

 

 

--

10


 

  having been addressed by God a chief priest, according to the order of Melchisedek,  

 

 

--

11


 

  concerning whom we have much discourse and of hard explanation to say, since ye have become dull of hearing,  

 

 

--

12


 

  for even owing to be teachers, because of the time, again ye have need that one teach you what [are] the elements of the beginning of the oracles of God, and ye have become having need of milk, and not of strong food,  

 

 

--

13


 

  for every one who is partaking of milk [is] unskilled in the word of righteousness -- for he is an infant,  

 

 

--

14


 

  and of perfect men is the strong food, who because of the use are having the senses exercised, unto the discernment both of good and of evil.
