Hebrews 5:1-6 ▼

1 For every high priest, taken from among men, is appointed in behalf of men in the things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins;

2 able to bear with the ignorant and erring, since he himself also is encompassed with infirmity;

3 and, on account of it, he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to make offering for sins.

4 And no one takes the honor to himself, but, when called by God, as was also Aaron.

5 Thus Christ also glorified not Himself to become a high priest, but He Who spake to Him, "Thou art My Son, this day have I begotten Thee";

6 as also, in another place , He saith, "Thou art a Priest forever according to the rank of Melchizedek";
