Hebrews 5:11-14
Legacy Standard Bible
11 Concerning [a]him we have much to say, and it is hard to explain, since you have become dull of hearing. 12 For though [b]by this time you ought to be teachers, you have need again for someone to teach you (A)the [c](B)elementary principles of the (C)oracles of God, and you have come to need (D)milk and not solid food. 13 For everyone who partakes only of milk is not accustomed to the word of righteousness, for he is an (E)infant. 14 But solid food is for (F)the [d]mature, who because of practice have their senses (G)trained to (H)discern both good and evil.

12 For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the [a]oracles of God; and you have come to need (C)milk and not solid food. 13 For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is (D)a babe. 14 But solid food belongs to those who are [b]of full age, that is, those who by reason of [c]use have their senses exercised (E)to discern both good and evil.
