The Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Hebrews

 1 For every high priest taken from among men is ^aordained for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and ^bsacrifices for sins:

 2 Who can have ^acompassion on the ignorant, and on them that are ^bout of the way; for that he himself also is compassed with infirmity.

 3 And by reason hereof he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for ^asins.

 4 And no man taketh this ^ahonour unto himself, but he that is ^bcalled of God, as was ^cAaron.

 5 So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest; but he that said unto him, Thou art my ^aSon, to day have I begotten thee.

 6 As he saith also in another place, Thou art a ^apriest ^bfor ever after the order of ^cMelchisedec.

 7 Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up ^aprayers and supplications with ^bstrong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard ^cin that he feared;

 8 Though he were a Son, yet ^alearned he ^bobedience by the things which he ^csuffered;

 9 And being made ^aperfect, he became the ^bauthor of eternal ^csalvation unto all them that obey him;

 10 ^aCalled of God an ^bhigh priest after the order of Melchisedec.

 11 Of whom we have many things to say, and ^ahard to be ^buttered, seeing ye are dull of ^chearing.

 12 For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of ^amilk, and not of strong meat.

 13 For every one that useth ^amilk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.

 14 But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
