Hebreo 5
Ang Salita ng Diyos
5 Sapagkat ang bawat pinakapunong-saserdote ay kinuha mula sa mga kalalakihan upang siya ang dapat na kumatawan sa kanila sa mga bagay na may kinalaman sa Diyos at upang siya ay naghandog ng mga kaloob at mga handog para sa kasalanan. 2 Yamang siya rin naman ay napapaligiran ng kahinaan, maaari siyang makitungo nang mahinahon sa mga mangmang at sa mga naliligaw. 3 Dahil dito, kailangan niyang maghandog ng mga handog para sa kasalanan. Kung papaanong siya ay naghandog para sa mga tao, gayundin naman ay maghandog siya para sa kaniyang sarili.
4 Walang sinumang nag-angkin ng karangalang ito para sa kaniyang sarili, kundi siya na tinawag ng Diyos tulad ng kaniyang pagkatawag kay Aaron. 5 Gayundin namam, hindi inangkin ni Cristo para sa kaniyang sarili ang kaluwalhatianng pagiging isang pinakapunong-saserdote. Subalit sinabi ng Diyos sa kaniya:
Ikaw ay ang aking Anak. Sa araw na ito ay ipinanganak kita.
6 Gayundin naman sa ibang dako ay sinabi niya ito:
Ikaw ay isang saserdote magpakailanman, ayon sa pangkat ni Melquisedec.
7 Siya, nang nabubuhay pa sa laman, ay kapwa humiling at dumalangin na may malakas na iyak at pagluha sa kaniya na makakapagligtas sa kaniya mula sa kamatayan. At dahil siya ay may banal na pagkatakot, siya ay dininig. 8 Bagaman siya ay isang anak, natutunan niyang sumunod mula sa mga bagay na kaniyang tiniis. 9 Nang siya ay naging ganap, siya ay naging pinagmulan ng walang hanggang kaligtasan para sa lahat ng mga sumusunod sa kaniya. 10 Siya ay itinalaga ng Diyos na maging isang pinakapunong-saserdote ayon sa pangkat ni Melquisedec.
Babala Laban sa Paglayo sa Pananampalataya
11 Marami kaming masasabi patungkol sa kaniya na mahirap ipaliwanag dahil kayo ay naging mapurol sa pakikinig.
12 Sapagkat sa panahon na kayo ay dapat na maging mga guro, nangangailangan pa kayo na may magturo sa inyong muli ng panimulang katuruan ng mga aral ng Diyos. Kayo ay naging katulad ng mga nangangailangan pa ng gatas at hindi tulad ng mga nangangailangan ang matigas na pagkain. 13 Sapagkat ang sinumang nabubuhay sa gatas ay hindi pa sanay sa katuruang patungkol sa katuwiran sapagkat siya ay isa pang sanggol. 14 Ngunit ang pagkaing matigas ay para sa mga taong ganap na. Dahil sa pagsagawa ay nasanay na nila ang kanilang mga kaisipan upang makilala ang masama at mabuti.
Hebrews 5

Introduction to a deeper teaching
5 Every high priest is taken from the people and put in charge of things that relate to God for their sake, in order to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins. 2 The high priest is able to deal gently with the ignorant and those who are misled since he himself is prone to weakness. 3 Because of his weakness, he must offer sacrifices for his own sins as well as for the people. 4 No one takes this honor for themselves but takes it only when they are called by God, just like Aaron.
5 In the same way Christ also didn’t promote himself to become high priest. Instead, it was the one who said to him,
You are my Son.
Today I have become your Father,
6 as he also says in another place,
You are a priest forever,
according to the order of Melchizedek.[a]
7 During his days on earth, Christ offered prayers and requests with loud cries and tears as his sacrifices to the one who was able to save him from death. He was heard because of his godly devotion. 8 Although he was a Son, he learned obedience from what he suffered. 9 After he had been made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for everyone who obeys him. 10 He was appointed by God to be a high priest according to the order of Melchizedek.
11 We have a lot to say about this topic, and it’s difficult to explain, because you have been lazy and you haven’t been listening. 12 Although you should have been teachers by now, you need someone to teach you an introduction to the basics about God’s message. You have come to the place where you need milk instead of solid food. 13 Everyone who lives on milk is not used to the word of righteousness, because they are babies. 14 But solid food is for the mature, whose senses are trained by practice to distinguish between good and evil.

Hebrews 5
King James Version
5 For every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins:
2 Who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on them that are out 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 sins.
4 And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.
5 So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest; but he that said unto him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee.
6 As he saith also in another place, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
7 Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared;
8 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered;
9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;
10 Called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec.
11 Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing.
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 milk, and not of strong meat.
13 For every one that useth milk 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.
Hebrews 5
New King James Version
Qualifications for High Priesthood
5 For every high priest taken from among men (A)is appointed for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins. 2 He can [a]have compassion on those who are ignorant and going astray, since he himself is also subject to (B)weakness. 3 Because of this he is required as for the people, so also for (C)himself, to offer sacrifices for sins. 4 And no man takes this honor to himself, but he who is called by God, just as (D)Aaron was.
A Priest Forever
5 (E)So also Christ did not glorify Himself to become High Priest, but it was He who said to Him:
(F)“You are My Son,
Today I have begotten You.”
6 As He also says in another place:
(G)“You are a priest forever
According to the order of Melchizedek”;
7 who, in the days of His flesh, when He had (H)offered up prayers and supplications, (I)with vehement cries and tears to Him (J)who was able to save Him from death, and was heard (K)because of His godly fear, 8 though He was a Son, yet He learned (L)obedience by the things which He suffered. 9 And (M)having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him, 10 called by God as High Priest (N)“according to the order of Melchizedek,” 11 of whom (O)we have much to say, and hard to explain, since you have become (P)dull of hearing.
Spiritual Immaturity
12 For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the [b]oracles of God; and you have come to need (Q)milk and not solid food. 13 For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is (R)a babe. 14 But solid food belongs to those who are [c]of full age, that is, those who by reason of [d]use have their senses exercised (S)to discern both good and evil.
