Hebrews 5:1-4 ▼

1 For every high priest chosen from among men is appointed [to act] on behalf of men in things relating to God, so that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins.

2 He is able to deal gently with the spiritually ignorant and misguided, since he is also subject to human weakness;

3 and because of this [human weakness] he is required to offer sacrifices for sins, for himself as well as for the people.

4 And besides, one does not appropriate for himself the honor [of being high priest], but he who is called by God, just as Aaron was.
