1 For every chief priest taken out of men is set in things [pertaining] to God in behalf of men, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins, 2 being able to be gentle to those being ignorant and going astray, since he is also surrounded with weakness; 3 and because of this [weakness] he ought, just as for the people, so also for himself, to bring forward [sacrifices] for sins; 4 and no one takes the honor to himself, 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 spoke to Him: “You are My Son, today I have begotten You”; Hebrews 5:1-5, Literal Standard Version.
