Hebrews 5:1-6 ▼

1 For every high priest taken from amongst men is established for men in things relating to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins;

2 being able to exercise forbearance towards the ignorant and erring, since he himself also is clothed with infirmity;

3 and, on account of this [infirmity], he ought, even as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins.

4 And no one takes the honour to himself but [as] called by God, even as Aaron also.

5 Thus the Christ also has not glorified himself to be made a high priest; but he who had said to him, Thou art my Son, I have to-day begotten thee.

6 Even as also in another [place] he says, Thou [art] a priest for ever according to the order of Melchisedec.
