Hebrews 5
Common English Bible
Introduction to a deeper teaching
5 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.[a]
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.
11 We have a lot to say about this topic, and it’s difficult to explain, because you have been lazy and you haven’t been listening. 12 Although you should have been teachers by now, you need someone to teach you an introduction to the basics about God’s message. You have come to the place where you need milk instead of solid food. 13 Everyone who lives on milk is not used to the word of righteousness, because they are babies. 14 But solid food is for the mature, whose senses are trained by practice to distinguish between good and evil.

Евреи 5
Библия, синодално издание
5 Защото всеки първосвещеник, измежду човеци избиран, за човеци се поставя да служи Богу, за да принася дарове и жертви за грехове,
2 и да може да бъде снизходителен към невежи и заблудени, понеже и сам е обложен с немощ;
3 и затова е длъжен както за народа, тъй и за себе си да принася жертви за грехове.
4 (A)И никой се сам не сдобива с тая почест, освен оня, който е призван от Бога, както и Аарон.
5 (B)Тъй и Христос не Сам прослави Себе Си, за да бъде първосвещеник, а Го прослави Оня, Който Му е казал: „Син Мой си Ти, Аз днес Те родих“;
6 (C)както и другаде казва: „Ти си свещеник навеки по чина Мелхиседеков“.
7 (D)Той в дните на плътта Си, със силен вик и сълзи отправи молби и молитви към Оногова, Който можеше да Го спаси от смърт, и, като биде чут поради благоговението Си,
8 (E)макар и да е Син, Той се научи на послушание чрез онова, което претърпя,
9 и, като се усъвършенствува, стана за всички, които Му са послушни, причина за вечно спасение,
10 като бе наречен от Бога Първосвещеник по чина Мелхиседеков.
11 (F)По това имаме да говорим много, което е и мъчно за тълкуване, защото станахте небрежни към слушане.
12 (G)Защото, макар и да бяхте длъжни според времето да бъдете учители, вие пак имате нужда да ви учат, кои са първите начала на Божието слово, и дойдохте до такова състояние, че се нуждаете от мляко, а не от твърда храна.
13 (H)Всякой, който се храни с мляко, не е опитен в словото на правдата, защото е младенец;
14 (I)а твърдата храна е за съвършени, които, благодарение на навика, имат чувства, обучени да различават добро и зло.
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.
