Hebrews 7:26-28
New American Standard Bible
26 For it was fitting for us to have such a (A)high priest, (B)holy, (C)innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, and (D)exalted above the heavens; 27 who has no daily need, like those high priests, to (E)offer up sacrifices, (F)first for His own sins and then for the sins of the people, because He did this (G)once for all time when He (H)offered up Himself. 28 For the Law appoints men as high priests (I)who are weak, but the word of the oath, which came after the Law, appoints (J)a Son, who has been (K)made perfect forever.

Hebrews 7:26-28
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
God’s Son Perfected Forever Is a Fitting High Priest For Us
26 For such a High Priest was indeed fitting for us— holy, innocent, undefiled, having been separated[a] from sinners, and having become higher than the heavens— 27 Who does not have the daily necessity (as indeed the high priests) to be offering sacrifices first for His own sins, then the sins of the people. For He did this once-for-all, having offered Himself. 28 For the Law appoints men having weakness as high priests, but the word of the oath-swearing after[b] the Law appoints a Son having been perfected forever.
