Hebrews 5

1 For every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins:
Compare verse
2 Who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on them that are out of the way; for that he himself also is compassed with infirmity.
Compare verse
3 And by reason hereof he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins.
Compare verse
4 And no man takes this honor to himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.
Compare verse
5 So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest; but he that said to him, You are my Son, to day have I begotten you.
Compare verse
6 As he said also in another place, You are a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
Compare verse
7 Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears to him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared;
Compare verse
8 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered;
Compare verse
9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation to all them that obey him;
Compare verse
10 Called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec.
Compare verse
11 Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing you are dull of hearing.
Compare verse
12 For when for the time you ought to be teachers, you have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.
Compare verse
13 For every one that uses milk is unskillful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.
Compare verse
14 But strong meat belongs to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
