The Perfect High Priest
5 For every high priest (A)taken from among men is appointed on behalf of people in (B)things pertaining to God, in order to (C)offer both gifts and sacrifices (D)for sins; 2 [a](E)he can deal gently with the (F)ignorant and (G)misguided, since he himself also is [b](H)clothed in weakness; 3 and because of it he is obligated to offer sacrifices (I)for sins for himself, (J)as well as for the people.

Disciples’ Literal New Testament
High Priests Are Called By God From Among Men To Offer Sacrifices For Sins
5 For every high priest being taken from-among men is appointed for people in the things pertaining to God, in order that he might offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins— 2 being able to deal-gently with the ones being ignorant and going-astray since he himself is also surrounded with weakness. 3 And because of it[a], he is obligated to be offering sacrifices for sins— just as for the people, so also for himself.
