Hebrews 5:1-3

The Message Bible MSG

1 Every high priest selected to represent men and women before God and offer sacrifices for their sins

2 should be able to deal gently with their failings, since he knows what it's like from his own experience.

3 But that also means that he has to offer sacrifices for his own sins as well as the people's.

New International Version NIV

1 Every high priest is selected from among the people and is appointed to represent the people in matters related to God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins.

2 He is able to deal gently with those who are ignorant and are going astray, since he himself is subject to weakness.

3 This is why he has to offer sacrifices for his own sins, as well as for the sins of the people.
