Hebrews 4:14-5:10

English Standard Version

Jesus the Great High Priest

¹⁴Since then we have ^(A)a great high priest ^(B)who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, ^(C)let us hold fast our confession. ¹⁵For we do not have a high priest ^(D)who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been ^(E)tempted as we are, ^(F)yet without sin. ¹⁶^(G)Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

5 For every high priest chosen from among men ^(H)is appointed to act on behalf of men ^(I)in relation to God, ^(J)to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins. ²^(K)He can deal gently with the ignorant and wayward, since he himself ^(L)is beset with weakness. ³Because of this he is obligated to offer sacrifice for his own sins ^(M)just as he does for those of the people. ⁴And ^(N)no one takes this honor for himself, but only when called by God, ^(O)just as Aaron was.

⁵So also Christ ^(P)did not exalt himself to be made a high priest, but was appointed by him who said to him,

^(Q)“You are my Son,
today I have begotten you”;

⁶as he says also in another place,

^(R)“You are a priest forever,
after the order of Melchizedek.”

⁷In the days of his flesh, ^(S)Jesus^[a] offered up prayers and supplications, ^(T)with loud cries and tears, to him ^(U)who was able to save him from death, and ^(V)he was heard because of his reverence. ⁸Although ^(W)he was a son, ^(X)he learned obedience through what he suffered. ⁹And ^(Y)being made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him, ¹⁰being designated by God a high priest ^(Z)after the order of Melchizedek.

English Standard Version

²²This makes Jesus the guarantor of ^(A)a better covenant.

²³The former priests were many in number, because they were prevented by death from continuing in office, ²⁴but he holds his priesthood permanently, because he continues ^(B)forever. ²⁵Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost^[a] ^(C)those who draw near to God ^(D)through him, since he always lives ^(E)to make intercession for them.

²⁶For it was indeed fitting that we should have such a high priest, ^(F)holy, innocent, unstained, ^(G)separated from sinners, and ^(H)exalted above the heavens. ²⁷He has no need, like those high priests, to offer sacrifices daily, ^(I)first for his own sins and then for those of the people, since he did this ^(J)once for all when he offered up himself. ²⁸For the law appoints men ^(K)in their weakness as high priests, but the word of the oath, which came later than the law, appoints a Son who has been made ^(L)perfect forever.
