Now every high priest taken from among men is appointed to act on behalf of men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins,
2 ⲃ̅ ⲉⲩⲛϭⲟⲙ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉϣⲡϩⲓⲥⲉ ⲙⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲟ ⲛⲁⲧⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲙⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲡⲗⲁⲛⲁ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲱⲱϥ ϫⲉ ϥϣⲟⲟⲡ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲛⲧϭⲱⲃ
being able to deal gently with those who sin in ignorance and go astray, since he himself is also subject to weakness.
3 ⲅ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲧⲃⲏⲏⲧⲥ ϣϣⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲑⲉ ⲉϣⲁϥⲧⲁⲗⲟ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ϩⲁ ⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ ⲛϥⲧⲁⲗⲟ ϩⲱⲱϥ ϩⲁⲣⲟϥ ⲛⲧⲉⲉⲓϩⲉ ϩⲁ ⲛⲉϥⲛⲟⲃⲉ
Because of this he must offer sacrifices for his own sins as well, just as he does for the people's.
4 ⲇ̅ ⲛⲉⲣⲉ ⲡⲟⲩⲁ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲟⲩⲁ ϫⲓ ⲛⲁϥ ⲁⲛ ⲙⲡⲧⲁⲉⲓⲟ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉⲩⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲑⲉ ⲛⲁⲁⲣⲱⲛ
Also, no one receives this honor on his own, but upon being called by God, just like Aaron.
5 ⲉ̅ ⲧⲁⲓ ⲧⲉ ⲑⲉ ⲙⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲛⲧⲁϥϯ ⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲁϥ ⲟⲩⲁⲁϥ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲧⲣⲉϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲙⲙⲁϥ ⲡⲉ ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲁϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲁⲓϫⲡⲟⲕ ⲙⲡⲟⲟⲩ
So also Christ did not exalt Himself to become High Priest, but it was He[F] who said to Him[S], “You are my Son; today I have begotten You.”
6 ⲋ̅ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲑⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲉϣⲁϥϫⲟⲟⲥ ϩⲛ ⲕⲉⲙⲁ ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲟⲩⲏⲏⲃ ϣⲁ ⲉⲛⲉϩ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲧⲧⲁⲝⲓⲥ ⲙⲙⲉⲗⲭⲓⲥⲉⲇⲉⲕ (aiōn )
Just as He[F] also says in another place, “You are a priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.” (aiōn )
7 ⲍ̅ ⲡⲁⲓ ϩⲛ ⲛⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲧⲉϥⲥⲁⲣⲝ ⲁϥϫⲓⲥⲉ ϩⲣⲁⲓ ϩⲛ ϩⲉⲛⲥⲟⲡⲥ ⲙⲛ ϩⲉⲛⲕⲱⲣϣ ⲛⲛⲁϩⲣⲛ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲟⲩⲛϭⲟⲙ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲧⲟⲩϫⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ ⲡⲙⲟⲩ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲛⲟϭ ⲛⲁϣⲕⲁⲕ ⲙⲛ ϩⲉⲛⲣⲙⲉⲓⲏ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲁⲩⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲧϩⲟⲧⲉ
He[S], in the days of His flesh, having offered up both prayers and supplications, with a loud cry and tears, to the One who was able to save Him from death, and having been answered because of His godly fear,
8 ⲏ̅ ⲕⲁⲓⲡⲉⲣ ⲉⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲁϥⲥⲃⲱ ⲉⲡⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁϥϣⲟⲡⲟⲩ
although being SON, He learned obedience by the things which He suffered.
9 ⲑ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲁϥϫⲱⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲧⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲛⲥⲱϥ ⲛⲁⲓⲧⲓⲟⲥ ⲙⲡⲉⲩϫⲁⲓ ⲛϣⲁ ⲉⲛⲉϩ (aiōnios )
And having been completed He became the Source of eternal salvation for all those obeying Him, (aiōnios )
10 ⲓ̅ ⲉⲁⲩⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲧⲧⲁⲝⲓⲥ ⲙⲙⲉⲗⲭⲓⲥⲉⲇⲉⲕ
having been designated by God as High Priest ‘according to the order of Melchizedek’;
11 ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲉⲣⲉⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲟϣ ⲛⲁⲛ ⲉϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉϥⲙⲟⲕϩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗϥ ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ϫⲉ ⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛϣⲟⲟⲛⲉ ϩⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲛⲙⲁⲁϫⲉ
concerning whom we have much to say, but it is hard to explain, since you have become sluggish in hearing.
12 ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ ⲕⲁⲓⲅⲁⲣ ⲉϣϣⲉ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ ⲉⲣⲥⲁϩ ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲡⲉⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲧⲉⲧⲛⲣⲭⲣⲓⲁ ⲟⲛ ⲛϯ ⲥⲃⲱ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲛⲉ ⲛⲉⲥⲧⲟⲓⲭⲓⲟⲛ ⲛⲧⲁⲣⲭⲏ ⲛⲛϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲣⲭⲣⲓⲁ ⲛⲟⲩⲉⲣⲱⲧⲉ ⲛⲟⲩϩⲣⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲥϫⲟⲟⲣ
Really, because although by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you the elementary principles of God's oracles all over again; you have come to the point of needing milk, not solid food!
13 ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲧϫⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ ⲡⲉⲣⲱⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲁⲧⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲙⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥⲩⲛⲏ ⲟⲩⲕⲟⲩⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲡⲉ
Surely; whoever lives on milk is an infant, and therefore unskilled in the Word of righteousness.
14 ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ ⲧⲁ ⲛⲓⲧⲉⲗⲓⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲧⲉϩⲣⲉ ⲉⲧϫⲟⲟⲣ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲑⲉⲝⲓⲥ ⲉⲩⲛⲧⲁⲩ ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲛⲛⲉⲩⲁⲓⲥⲑⲏⲧⲏⲣⲓⲟⲛ ⲉⲩⲅⲩⲙⲛⲁⲍⲉ ⲉⲇⲓⲁⲕⲣⲓⲛⲉ ⲛⲧⲙⲏ ⲧⲉ ⲙⲡⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲙⲛ ⲡⲡⲉⲑⲟⲟⲩ
On the other hand, solid food is for the mature, those who by habitual use have trained their senses to distinguish good from bad.
