Hebræos 5
1 omnis namque pontifex ex hominibus adsumptus pro hominibus constituitur in his quae sunt ad Deum ut offerat dona et sacrificia pro peccatis
For euery hie Priest is taken from among men, and is ordeined for men, in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both giftes and sacrifices for sinnes,
2 qui condolere possit his qui ignorant et errant quoniam et ipse circumdatus est infirmitate
Which is able sufficiently to haue compassion on them that are ignorant, and that are out of the way, because that hee also is compassed with infirmitie,
3 et propter eam debet quemadmodum et pro populo ita etiam pro semet ipso offerre pro peccatis
And for the sames sake he is bound to offer for sinnes, as well for his own part, as for ye peoples.
4 nec quisquam sumit sibi honorem sed qui vocatur a Deo tamquam Aaron
And no man taketh this honor vnto him selfe, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.
5 sic et Christus non semet ipsum clarificavit ut pontifex fieret sed qui locutus est ad eum Filius meus es tu ego hodie genui te
So likewise Christ tooke not to him selfe this honour, to be made the hie Priest, but hee that sayd vnto him, Thou art my Sonne, this day begate I thee, gaue it him.
As he also in another place speaketh, Thou art a Priest for euer, after ye order of Melchi-sedec. (aiōn g165)
7 qui in diebus carnis suae preces supplicationesque ad eum qui possit salvum illum a morte facere cum clamore valido et lacrimis offerens et exauditus pro sua reverentia
Who in the dayes of his flesh did offer vp prayers and supplications, with strong crying and teares vnto him, that was able to saue him from death, and was also heard in that which he feared.
8 et quidem cum esset Filius didicit ex his quae passus est oboedientiam
And though he were ye Sonne, yet learned he obedience, by the things which he suffered.
And being consecrate, was made the authour of eternall saluation vnto all them that obey him: (aiōnios g166)
10 appellatus a Deo pontifex iuxta ordinem Melchisedech
And is called of God an hie Priest after the order of Melchi-sedec.
11 de quo grandis nobis sermo et ininterpretabilis ad dicendum quoniam inbecilles facti estis ad audiendum
Of whome we haue many things to say, which are hard to be vttered, because ye are dull of hearing.
12 etenim cum deberetis magistri esse propter tempus rursum indigetis ut vos doceamini quae sint elementa exordii sermonum Dei et facti estis quibus lacte opus sit non solido cibo
For when as concerning ye time ye ought to be teachers, yet haue ye neede againe that we teach you what are the first principles of the worde of God: and are become such as haue neede of milke, and not of strong meate.
13 omnis enim qui lactis est particeps expers est sermonis iustitiae parvulus enim est
For euery one that vseth milke, is inexpert in the worde of righteousnes: for he is a babe.
14 perfectorum autem est solidus cibus eorum qui pro consuetudine exercitatos habent sensus ad discretionem boni ac mali
But strong meate belongeth to them that are of age, which through long custome haue their wits exercised, to discerne both good and euill.
