Евреи 5
1 Защото всеки първосвещеник, като е взет измежду човеците, се поставя да принася дарове и жертви на Бога за греховете на човеците,
For every High Priest is chosen from among men, and is appointed to act on behalf of men in matters relating to God, in order to offer both gifts and sin-offerings,
2 такъв първосвещеник, който може да състрадава с невежите и заблудилите, защото и сам той е обиколен с немощ,
and must be one who is able to bear patiently with the ignorant and erring, because he himself also is beset with infirmity.
3 и за това е длъжен да принася жертва за греховете, както за людете, така и за себе си.
And for this reason he is required to offer sin-offerings not only for the people but also for himself.
4 А както никой не взема на себе си тая почит, освен когато бъде призван от Бога, както бе Аарон,
And no one takes this honourable office upon himself, but only accepts it when called to it by God, as Aaron was.
5 така и Христос не присвои на Себе Си славата да стане първосвещеник, а Му я даде Оня, Който Му е казал: "Ти си Мой Син. Аз днес Те родих";
So Christ also did not claim for Himself the honour of being made High Priest, but was appointed to it by Him who said to Him, "My Son art Thou: I have to-day become Thy Father;"
as also in another passage He says, "Thou art a priest for ever, belonging to the order of Melchizedek." (aiōn g165)
7 Тоя Христос в дните и в плътта Си, като принесе в силен вик и със сълзи молитви и молби на Този, Който можеше да го избави от смърт, и като биде послушан поради благоговението Си,
For Jesus during his earthly life offered up prayers and entreaties, crying aloud and weeping as He pleaded with Him who was able to bring Him in safety out of death, and He was delivered from the terror from which He shrank.
8 ако и да беше Син, пак се научи на послушание от това, което пострада,
Although He was God's Son, yet He learned obedience from the sufferings which He endured;
9 и като се усъвършенствува, стана причина за вечно спасение за всички, които Му са послушни, (aiōnios g166)
and so, having been made perfect, He became to all who obey Him the source and giver of eternal salvation. (aiōnios g166)
10 наречен от Бога първосвещеник според Мелхиседековия чин.
For God Himself addresses Him as a High Priest for ever, belonging to the order of Melchizedek.
11 Върху това имаме да кажем много неща и мъчни за поясняване, защото сте станали тъпи в слушане.
Concerning Him we have much to say, and much that it would be difficult to make clear to you, since you have become so dull of apprehension.
12 Понеже докато вие трябваше до сега, според изтеклото време, и учители да станете, имате нужда да ви учи някой изново най-елементарните начала на Божиите словеса, и достигнахте да имате нужда от мляко, а не от твърда храна.
For although, considering the long time you have been believers, you ought now to be teachers of others, you really need some one to teach you over again the very rudiments of the truths of God, and you have come to require milk instead of solid food.
13 Защото всеки, който се храни с мляко, е неопитен в учението за правдата, понеже е младенец;
By people who live on milk I mean those who are imperfectly acquainted with the teaching concerning righteousness.
14 а твърдата храна е за пълнолетните, които чрез упражнение са обучили чувствата си да разпознават доброто и злото.
Such persons are mere babes. But solid food is for adults--that is, for those who through constant practice have their spiritual faculties carefully trained to distinguish good from evil.
