1 For every high priest is taken from among men, constituted on behalf of men in things relating to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins,
2 who can have compassion on the ignorant and on those that are in error; for he himself is also compassed with weakness.
3 And by reason of this he ought, as for the people so also for himself, to offer for sins.
4 And no one takes this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.
5 So also the Christ did not glorify himself to make himself high priest; but he that said unto him, Thou art my Son; today have I begotten thee.
