1 For every high priest being taken from among men is appointed for men (in) the things pertaining to [the] God, so that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins,
2 being able to deal gently (with) the ones being ignorant and going astray, since he himself also is subject to weakness,
3 because of this he ought to offer (sacrifices) for his own sins, as well as for the people.
4 And no one takes the honor (upon) himself, but (the one) being called by [the] God, just as Aaron (was).
5 So [the] Christ also did not glorify himself to become a high priest, but the One having said (to) him, “You are my Son, today I have begotten you.”
6 As He also says in another (place), “You (are) a priest unto the age(=forever) according to the order of Melchizedek,” 7 who, in the days of his flesh, having offered both prayers and supplications, with strong(=loud) cry and tears to the One being able to save him from death, and having been heard from(=because of) the(=his) fear of God,
8 although being(=he was) a Son, he learned [the] obedience from what he suffered,
9 and having been perfected, he became (the) source of eternal salvation to all the ones obeying him,
10 having been designated by [the] God a high priest according to the order of Melchizedek,
11 of whom there are to us much word(=many things) to say, and hard to explain, since you have become dull (in) the hearings(=understanding).
12 For you, having to be teachers because of the time(=by this time), have need someone to teach you again the elements of the beginning(=basic principles) of God’s words. And you have become (the ones) having need of milk, (and) not of solid food.
13 For everyone partaking of(=living on) milk (is) without experience of(=unskilled in) the word of righteousness, for he is an infant,
14 But [the] solid food is of(=for) the mature, (for) the ones having the(=their) faculties [having been] trained through(=by) the practice for distinction of(=to distinguish) both good and evil.
