< Hebrews 5 >

1 For every high priest, having been taken from among men, is appointed on behalf of men toward the things which pertain to God, so that he may offer gifts and sacrifices on behalf of sins;
yaH kazcit mahAyAjako bhavati sa mAnavAnAM madhyAt nItaH san mAnavAnAM kRta IzvaroddezyaviSaye'rthata upahArANAM pApArthakabalInAJca dAna niyujyate|
2 he is able to commiserate with those who are ignorant and who wander astray, because he himself is also encompassed by infirmity.
sa cAjJAnAM bhrAntAnAJca lokAnAM duHkhena duHkhI bhavituM zaknoti, yato hetoH sa svayamapi daurbbalyaveSTito bhavati|
3 And because of this, he also must make such offerings for sins even for himself, in the same manner as for the people.
etasmAt kAraNAcca yadvat lokAnAM kRte tadvad AtmakRte'pi pApArthakabalidAnaM tena karttavyaM|
4 Neither does anyone take up this honor himself, but rather he who is called by God, just as Aaron was.
sa ghoccapadaH svecchAtaH kenApi na gRhyate kintu hAroNa iva ya IzvareNAhUyate tenaiva gRhyate|
5 Thus, even Christ did not glorify himself, so as to become High Priest, but instead, it was God who said to him: “You are my Son. Today I have begotten you.”
evamprakAreNa khrISTo'pi mahAyAjakatvaM grahItuM svIyagauravaM svayaM na kRtavAn, kintu "madIyatanayo'si tvam adyaiva janito mayeti" vAcaM yastaM bhASitavAn sa eva tasya gauravaM kRtavAn|
6 And similarly, he says in another place: “You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.” (aiōn g165)
tadvad anyagIte'pIdamuktaM, tvaM malkISedakaH zreNyAM yAjako'si sadAtanaH| (aiōn g165)
7 It is Christ who, in the days of his flesh, with a strong cry and tears, offered prayers and supplications to the One who was able to save him from death, and who was heard because of his reverence.
sa ca dehavAsakAle bahukrandanenAzrupAtena ca mRtyuta uddharaNe samarthasya pituH samIpe punaH punarvinatiM prarthanAJca kRtvA tatphalarUpiNIM zaGkAto rakSAM prApya ca
8 And although, certainly, he is the Son of God, he learned obedience by the things that he suffered.
yadyapi putro'bhavat tathApi yairaklizyata tairAjJAgrahaNam azikSata|
9 And having reached his consummation, he was made, for all who are obedient to him, the cause of eternal salvation, (aiōnios g166)
itthaM siddhIbhUya nijAjJAgrAhiNAM sarvveSAm anantaparitrANasya kAraNasvarUpo 'bhavat| (aiōnios g166)
10 having been called by God to be the High Priest, according to the order of Melchizedek.
tasmAt sa malkISedakaH zreNIbhukto mahAyAjaka IzvareNAkhyAtaH|
11 Our message about him is great, and difficult to explain when speaking, because you have been made feeble when listening.
tamadhyasmAkaM bahukathAH kathayitavyAH kintu tAH stabdhakarNai ryuSmAbhi rdurgamyAH|
12 For even though it is the time when you ought to be teachers, you are still lacking, so that you must be taught the things that are the basic elements of the Word of God, and so you have been made like those who are in need of milk, and not of solid food.
yato yUyaM yadyapi samayasya dIrghatvAt zikSakA bhavitum azakSyata tathApIzvarasya vAkyAnAM yA prathamA varNamAlA tAmadhi zikSAprApti ryuSmAkaM punarAvazyakA bhavati, tathA kaThinadravye nahi kintu dugdhe yuSmAkaM prayojanam Aste|
13 For anyone who is still feeding on milk is still unskillful in the Word of Justice; for he is like an infant.
yo dugdhapAyI sa zizurevetikAraNAt dharmmavAkye tatparo nAsti|
14 But solid food is for those who are mature, for those who, by practice, have sharpened their mind, so as to discern good from evil.
