Hebrews 5

Douai-Rheims	Nova Vulgata
¹ For every high priest taken from among men, is ordained for men in the things that appertain to God, that he may offer up gifts and sacrifices for sins:	¹ Omnis namque pontifex ex hominibus assumptus pro homi nibus constituitur in his, quae sunt ad Deum, ut offerat dona et sacrificia pro peccatis;
² Who can have compassion on them that are ignorant and that err: because he himself also is compassed with infirmity.	² qui aeque condolere possit his, qui ignorant et errant, quoniam et ipse circumdatus est infirmitate
³ And therefore he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins.	³ et propter eam debet, quemadmodum et pro populo, ita etiam pro semetipso offerre pro peccatis.
⁴ Neither doth any man take the honour to himself, but he that is called by God, as Aaron was.	⁴ Nec quisquam sumit sibi illum honorem, sed qui vocatur a Deo tamquam et Aaron.
⁵ So Christ also did not glorify himself, that he might be made a high priest: but he that said unto him: Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.	⁵ Sic et Christus non semetipsum glorificavit, ut pontifex fieret, sed qui locutus est ad eum: “ Filius meus es tu; ego hodie genui te ”;
⁶ As he saith also in another place: Thou art a priest for ever, according to the order of Melchisedech.	⁶ quemadmodum et in alio dicit: “ Tu es sacerdos in aeternum secundum ordinem Melchisedech ”.
⁷ Who in the days of his flesh, with a strong cry and tears, offering up prayers and supplications to him that was able to save him from death, was heard for his reverence.	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,
⁸ And whereas indeed he was the Son of God, he learned obedience by the things which he suffered:	⁸ et quidem cum esset Filius, didicit ex his, quae passus est, oboedientiam;
⁹ And being consummated, he became, to all that obey him, the cause of eternal salvation.	⁹ et, consummatus, factus est omnibus oboedientibus sibi auctor salutis aeternae,
¹⁰ Called by God a high priest according to the order of Melchisedech.	¹⁰ appellatus a Deo pontifex iuxta ordinem Melchisedech.
¹¹ Of whom we have much to say, and hard to be intelligibly uttered: because you are become weak to hear.	¹¹ De quo grandis nobis sermo et ininterpretabilis ad dicendum, quoniam segnes facti estis ad audiendum.
¹² For whereas for the time you ought to be masters, you have need to be taught again what are the first elements of the words of God: and you are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.	¹² Etenim cum deberetis magistri esse propter tempus, rursum indigetis, ut vos doceat aliquis elementa exordii sermonum Dei, et facti estis, quibus lacte opus sit, non solido cibo.
¹³ For every one that is a partaker of milk, is unskillful in the word of justice: for he is a little child.	¹³ Omnis enim, qui lactis est particeps, expers est sermonis iustitiae, parvulus enim est;
¹⁴ But strong meat is for the perfect; for them who by custom have their senses exercised to the discerning of good and evil.	¹⁴ perfectorum autem est solidus cibus, eorum, qui pro consuetudine exercitatos habent sensus ad discretionem boni ac mali.
