For{G1063} {G0} every{G3956} high priest,{G749} being taken{G2983} from among{G1537} men,{G444} is appointed{G2525} for{G5228} men{G444} in{G2525} things{G3588} pertaining to{G4314} God,{G2316} that{G2443} he may offer{G4374} both{G5037} gifts{G1435} and{G2532} sacrifices{G2378} for{G5228} sins:{G266}

who can{G1410} bear gently{G3356} with the ignorant{G50} and{G2532} erring,{G4105} for{G1893} that he{G4029} himself{G846} also{G2532} is compassed{G4029} with infirmity;{G769}

and{G2532} by reason{G1223} thereof{G5026} is bound,{G3784} as{G2531} for{G4012} the people,{G2992} so{G3779} also{G2532} for{G4012} himself,{G1438} to offer{G4374} for{G5228} sins.{G266}

And{G2532} no{G3756} man{G5100} taketh{G2983} the honor{G5092} unto himself,{G1438} but{G235} when he is called{G2564} of{G5259} God,{G2316} even{G2532} as{G2509} was Aaron.{G2}

So{G3779} Christ{G5547} also{G2532} glorified{G1392} not{G3756} himself{G1438} to be made{G1096} a high priest,{G749} but{G235} he that spake{G2980} unto{G4314} him,{G846} Thou{G4771} art{G1488} my{G3450} Son,{G5207} This day{G4594} have{G1080} I{G1473} begotten{G1080} thee:{G4571}

as{G2531} he saith{G3004} also{G2532} in{G1722} another{G2087} [place], Thou{G4771} art a priest{G2409} for{G1519} ever{G165} After{G2596} the order{G5010} of Melchizedek.{G3198}

Who{G3739} in{G1722} the days{G2250} of{G4561} his{G846} flesh,{G4561} having offered up{G4374} {G5037} prayers{G1162} and{G2532} supplications{G2428} with{G3326} strong{G2478} crying{G2906} and{G2532} tears{G1144} unto{G4314} him that was able{G1410} to save{G4982} him{G846} from{G1537} death,{G2288} and{G2532} having been heard{G1522} for{G575} his godly fear,{G2124}

though{G2539} he{G3129} was a Son,{G5207} yet{G2539} learned obedience{G5218} by{G575} the things which{G3739} he{G3129} suffered;{G3958}

and{G2532} having been made perfect,{G5048} he became{G1096} unto all{G3956} them that obey{G5219} him{G846} the author{G159} of{G4991} eternal{G166} salvation;{G4991}

named{G4316} of{G5259} God{G2316} a high priest{G749} after{G2596} the order{G5010} of Melchizedek.{G3198}

Of{G4012} whom{G3739} we have{G2254} many{G4183} things{G3056} to say,{G3004} and{G2532} hard of interpretation,{G1421} seeing{G1893} ye are{G1096} become dull{G3576} of hearing.{G189}

For{G2532} {G1063} when by{G1223} reason of the time{G5550} ye ought{G3784} to be{G1511} teachers,{G1320} ye have{G2192} need{G5532} again{G3825} that some one teach{G1321} you{G5209} the{G5101} rudiments of the first{G746} principles{G4747} of the oracles{G3051} of God;{G2316} and{G2532} are become such as{G1096} have{G2192} need{G5532} of milk,{G1051} and{G2532} not{G3756} of solid{G4731} food.{G5160}

For{G1063} every one{G3956} that partaketh{G3348} of milk{G1051} is without experience{G552} of the word{G3056} of righteousness;{G1343} for{G1063} he is{G2076} a babe.{G3516}

But{G1161} solid{G4731} food{G5160} is for{G2076} fullgrown{G5046} men, even those who{G2192} by reason of{G1223} use{G1838} have{G2192} their senses{G145} exercised{G1128} to{G4314} discern{G1253} {G5037} good{G2570} and{G2532} evil.{G2556}
