1 For every chief priest taken from men is appointed for men for things to God, that he bring both gifts and sacrifices for sins: 2 Being able to moderate the passions to the ignorant, and deceived; since he also is surrounded with weakness. 3 And for this he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to bring in for sins. 4 And not any takes this honour to himself; but the called of God, as also Aaron. 5 So also Christ honoured not himself, to become chief priest; but he having spoken to him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee.
