Hebrews 5
King James Version
5 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:
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.
3 And by reason hereof he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins.
4 And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.
5 So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest; but he that said unto him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee.
6 As he saith also in another place, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
7 Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared;
8 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered;
9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;
10 Called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec.
11 Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing.
12 For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye 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.
13 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.
14 But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
Hebreos 5

Jesús como Sumo Sacerdote
5 Porque todo sumo sacerdote tomado de entre los hombres(A) es constituido a favor de los hombres en las cosas que a Dios se refieren(B), para presentar ofrendas y sacrificios(C) por los pecados(D); 2 y puede[a] obrar con benignidad[b](E) para con los ignorantes(F) y extraviados(G), puesto que él mismo está sujeto a flaquezas(H); 3 y por esa causa está obligado a ofrecer sacrificios por los pecados(I), tanto por sí mismo como por el pueblo(J). 4 Y nadie toma este honor para sí mismo(K), sino que lo recibe cuando es llamado por Dios, así como lo fue Aarón(L). 5 De la misma manera, Cristo no se glorificó a sí mismo(M) para hacerse Sumo Sacerdote(N), sino que lo glorificó el que le dijo(O):
Hijo mío eres tú,
Yo te he engendrado hoy(P);
6 como también dice en otro pasaje:
Tú eres sacerdote para siempre
según el orden de Melquisedec(Q).
7 Cristo[c], en los días de su carne, habiendo ofrecido oraciones y súplicas(R) con gran clamor y lágrimas(S) al que podía librarle[d](T) de la muerte, fue oído a causa de su temor reverente(U); 8 y aunque era Hijo(V), aprendió obediencia(W) por lo que padeció; 9 y habiendo sido hecho perfecto(X), vino a ser fuente[e] de eterna salvación para todos los que le obedecen, 10 siendo constituido por Dios sumo sacerdote(Y) según el orden de Melquisedec(Z).
Crecimiento en la madurez espiritual
11 Acerca de esto[f] tenemos mucho que decir, y es difícil de explicar, puesto que os habéis hecho tardos para oír. 12 Pues aunque ya[g] debierais ser maestros, otra vez tenéis necesidad de que alguien os enseñe los principios(AA) elementales[h](AB) de los oráculos de Dios(AC), y habéis llegado a tener necesidad de leche(AD) y no de alimento sólido. 13 Porque todo el que toma solo leche, no está acostumbrado a la palabra de justicia, porque es niño(AE). 14 Pero el alimento sólido es para los adultos[i](AF), los cuales por la práctica tienen los sentidos ejercitados(AG) para discernir el bien y el mal(AH).

Hebrews 5
New King James Version
Qualifications for High Priesthood
5 For every high priest taken from among men (A)is appointed for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins. 2 He can [a]have compassion on those who are ignorant and going astray, since he himself is also subject to (B)weakness. 3 Because of this he is required as for the people, so also for (C)himself, to offer sacrifices for sins. 4 And no man takes this honor to himself, but he who is called by God, just as (D)Aaron was.
A Priest Forever
5 (E)So also Christ did not glorify Himself to become High Priest, but it was He who said to Him:
(F)“You are My Son,
Today I have begotten You.”
6 As He also says in another place:
(G)“You are a priest forever
According to the order of Melchizedek”;
7 who, in the days of His flesh, when He had (H)offered up prayers and supplications, (I)with vehement cries and tears to Him (J)who was able to save Him from death, and was heard (K)because of His godly fear, 8 though He was a Son, yet He learned (L)obedience by the things which He suffered. 9 And (M)having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him, 10 called by God as High Priest (N)“according to the order of Melchizedek,” 11 of whom (O)we have much to say, and hard to explain, since you have become (P)dull of hearing.
Spiritual Immaturity
12 For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the [b]oracles of God; and you have come to need (Q)milk and not solid food. 13 For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is (R)a babe. 14 But solid food belongs to those who are [c]of full age, that is, those who by reason of [d]use have their senses exercised (S)to discern both good and evil.
