Hebrews 5:4-10
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)

Hebrews 5:4-10
New American Standard Bible
4 And (A)no one takes the honor for himself, but receives it when he is called by God, just (B)as Aaron also was.
5 So too Christ (C)did not glorify Himself in becoming a (D)high priest, but it was He who (E)said to Him,
“(F)You are My Son,
Today I have fathered You”;
6 just as He also says in another passage,
7 In the days of [a]His humanity, [b](I)He offered up both prayers and pleas with (J)loud crying and tears to the One (K)able to save Him [c]from death, and He [d]was heard because of His (L)devout behavior. 8 Although He was (M)a Son, He learned (N)obedience from the things which He suffered. 9 And having been (O)perfected, He became the source of eternal salvation for all those who obey Him, 10 being designated by God as (P)High Priest according to (Q)the order of Melchizedek.
