Hebrews 5:4-10
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
4 Neither doth any man take the honour to himself, but he that is called by God, as Aaron was.
5 So Christ also did not glorify himself, that he might be made a high priest: but he that said unto him: Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.
6 As he saith also in another place: Thou art a priest for ever, according to the order of Melchisedech.
7 Who in the days of his flesh, with a strong cry and tears, offering up prayers and supplications to him that was able to save him from death, was heard for his reverence.
8 And whereas indeed he was the Son of God, he learned obedience by the things which he suffered:
9 And being consummated, he became, to all that obey him, the cause of eternal salvation.
10 Called by God a high priest according to the order of Melchisedech.

New International Version
4 And no one takes this honor on himself, but he receives it when called by God, just as Aaron was.(A)
5 In the same way, Christ did not take on himself the glory(B) of becoming a high priest.(C) But God said(D) to him,
6 And he says in another place,
7 During the days of Jesus’ life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions(H) with fervent cries and tears(I) to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard(J) because of his reverent submission.(K) 8 Son(L) though he was, he learned obedience from what he suffered(M) 9 and, once made perfect,(N) he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him 10 and was designated by God to be high priest(O) in the order of Melchizedek.(P)
