24 [a]Jesus, on the other hand, because He continues (A)forever, holds His priesthood permanently. 25 Therefore He is also able to (B)save [b]forever those who (C)come to God through Him, since He always lives to (D)make intercession for them.

26 For it was fitting for us to have such a (E)high priest, (F)holy, (G)innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, and (H)exalted above the heavens; 27 who has no daily need, like those high priests, to (I)offer up sacrifices, (J)first for His own sins and then for the sins of the people, because He did this (K)once for all time when He (L)offered up Himself. 28 For the Law appoints men as high priests (M)who are weak, but the word of the oath, which came after the Law, appoints (N)a Son, who has been (O)made perfect forever.

24 but because Jesus lives forever, he has a permanent priesthood.(A) 25 Therefore he is able to save(B) completely[a] those who come to God(C) through him, because he always lives to intercede for them.(D)

26 Such a high priest(E) truly meets our need—one who is holy, blameless, pure, set apart from sinners,(F) exalted above the heavens.(G) 27 Unlike the other high priests, he does not need to offer sacrifices(H) day after day, first for his own sins,(I) and then for the sins of the people. He sacrificed for their sins once for all(J) when he offered himself.(K) 28 For the law appoints as high priests men in all their weakness;(L) but the oath, which came after the law, appointed the Son,(M) who has been made perfect(N) forever.
