Hebrews 5

NEW JERUSALEM	GREEK BIBLE
1 Every high priest is taken from among human beings and is appointed to act on their behalf inrelationships with God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins;	1 Διοτι πας αρχιερευς, εξ ανθρωπων λαμβανομενος, υπερ ανθρωπων καθισταται εις τα προς τον Θεον, δια να προσφερη δωρα τε και θυσιας υπερ αμαρτιων,
2 he can sympathise with those who are ignorant or who have gone astray, because he too is subject tothe limitations of weakness.	2 δυναμενος να συμπαθη εις τους αγνοουντας και πλανωμενους, διοτι και αυτος ειναι περιενδεδυμενος ασθενειαν?
3 That is why he has to make sin offerings for himself as wel as for the people.	3 και δια ταυτην χρεωστει, καθως περι του λαου, ουτω και περι εαυτου να προσφερη θυσιαν υπερ αμαρτιων.
4 No one takes this honour on himself; it needs a cal from God, as in Aaron's case.	4 Και ουδεις λαμβανει την τιμην ταυτην εις εαυτον, αλλ' ο καλουμενος υπο του Θεου, καθως και ο Ααρων.
5 And so it was not Christ who gave himself the glory of becoming high priest, but the one who said tohim: You are my Son, today I have fathered you,	5 Ουτω και ο Χριστος δεν εδοξασεν εαυτον δια να γεινη αρχιερευς, αλλ' ο λαλησας προς αυτον? Υιος μου εισαι συ, εγω σημερον σε εγεννησα?
6 and in another text: You are a priest for ever, of the order of Melchizedek.	6 καθως και αλλαχου λεγει? Συ εισαι ιερευς εις τον αιωνα κατα την ταξιν Μελχισεδεκ.
7 During his life on earth, he offered up prayer and entreaty, with loud cries and with tears, to the onewho had the power to save him from death, and, winning a hearing by his reverence,	7 Οστις εν ταις ημεραις της σαρκος αυτου, αφου μετα κραυγης δυνατης και δακρυων προσεφερε δεησεις και ικεσιας προς τον δυναμενον να σωζη αυτον εκ του θανατου, και εισηκουσθη δια την ευλαβειαν αυτου,
8 he learnt obedience, Son though he was, through his sufferings;	8 καιτοι ων Υιος, εμαθε την υπακοην αφ' οσων επαθε,
9 when he had been perfected, he became for al who obey him the source of eternal salvation	9 και γενομενος τελειος, κατεσταθη αιτιος σωτηριας αιωνιου εις παντας τους υπακουοντας εις αυτον,
10 and was acclaimed by God with the title of high priest of the order of Melchizedek.	10 ονομασθεις υπο του Θεου αρχιερευς κατα την ταξιν Μελχισεδεκ?
11 On this subject we have many things to say, and they are difficult to explain because you have grownso slow at understanding.	11 Περι του οποιου πολλα εχομεν να ειπωμεν και δυσερμηνευτα, διοτι εγεινετε νωθροι τας ακοας.
12 Indeed, when you should by this time have become masters, you need someone to teach you al overagain the elements of the principles of God's sayings; you have gone back to needing milk, and not solid food.	12 Επειδη ενω ως προς τον καιρον επρεπε να ησθε διδασκαλοι, παλιν εχετε χρειαν του να σας διδασκη τις τα αρχικα στοιχεια των λογων του Θεου, και κατηντησατε να εχητε χρειαν γαλακτος και ουχι στερεας τροφης.
13 Truly, no one who is stil living on milk can digest the doctrine of saving justice, being stil a baby.	13 Διοτι πας ο μετεχων γαλακτος ειναι απειρος του λογου της δικαιοσυνης? επειδη ειναι νηπιος?
14 Solid food is for adults with minds trained by practice to distinguish between good and bad.	14 των τελειων ομως ειναι η στερεα τροφη, οιτινες δια την εξιν εχουσι τα αισθητηρια γεγυμνασμενα εις το να διακρινωσι το καλον και το κακον.
