Hebrews 5:1-10

Common English Bible CEB

1 Every high priest is taken from the people and put in charge of things that relate to God for their sake, in order to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins.

2 The high priest is able to deal gently with the ignorant and those who are misled since he himself is prone to weakness.

3 Because of his weakness, he must offer sacrifices for his own sins as well as for the people.

4 No one takes this honor for themselves but takes it only when they are called by God, just like Aaron.

5 In the same way Christ also didn't promote himself to become high priest. Instead, it was the one who said to him, You are my Son. Today I have become your Father,

6 as he also says in another place, You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.

7 During his days on earth, Christ offered prayers and requests with loud cries and tears as his sacrifices to the one who was able to save him from death. He was heard because of his godly devotion.

8 Although he was a Son, he learned obedience from what he suffered.

9 After he had been made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for everyone who obeys him.

10 He was appointed by God to be a high priest according to the order of Melchizedek.

New Revised Standard NRS

1 Every high priest chosen from among mortals is put in charge of things pertaining to God on their behalf, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins.

2 He is able to deal gently with the ignorant and wayward, since he himself is subject to weakness;

3 and because of this he must offer sacrifice for his own sins as well as for those of the people.

4 And one does not presume to take this honor, but takes it only when called by God, just as Aaron was.

5 So also Christ did not glorify himself in becoming a high priest, but was appointed by the one who said to him, "You are my Son, today I have begotten you";

6 as he says also in another place, "You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek."

7 In the days of his flesh, Jesus offered up prayers and supplications, with loud cries and tears, to the one who was able to save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission.

8 Although he was a Son, he learned obedience through what he suffered;

9 and having been made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him,

10 having been designated by God a high priest according to the order of Melchizedek.
