1 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.

1 Har bir oliy ruhoniy insonlar orasidan tanlab olinadi. U Xudoga gunohlar uchun nazrlar va qurbonliklar keltirib, xalq vakili boʻlib xizmat qiladi. 2 Gʻaflatda gunoh qilib qoʻygan odamlarni oliy ruhoniy tushunadi, chunki u oʻzi ham inson, kamchiliklari bor. 3 Shu sababdan u nafaqat xalqning gunohlari uchun, balki oʻzining gunohlari uchun ham qurbonliklar keltirishi zarur. 4 Hech kim oʻz xohishi bilan oliy ruhoniy boʻla olmaydi, balki Horunga oʻxshab Xudo tomonidan tayinlanadi.
5 Shu tariqa, Masih ham oliy ruhoniylik sharafiga intilmadi, bunday martabaga U daʼvogarlik qilmadi. Aksincha, Unga:
“Sen Mening Oʻgʻlimsan,
Bugun Men Senga Ota boʻldim” ,
— deb aytgan Xudo Uni Oliy ruhoniy qilib tayinladi. 6 Zero, boshqa bir joyda Xudo Unga shunday degan:
“Sen Maliksidiq singari,
To abad ruhoniysan.”
7 Masih bu dunyoda yashagan paytda koʻz yosh toʻkib, Xudoga faryod qildi, Unga iltijo qilib yolvordi . Chunki Xudo Uni oʻlimdan qutqarishga qodir ekanligini Masih bilar edi. U Xudoni yuksak darajada eʼzozlagani uchun Uning iltijosi ijobat boʻldi. 8 Garchi U Xudoning Oʻgʻli boʻlsa ham, azob–uqubat chekib, itoatkorlikning asl maʼnosini angladi. 9 Xudo azoblar orqali Masihni barkamol qildi. Shunday qilib, Unga itoat qilganlarning hammasi uchun Masih abadiy najot manbai boʻldi. 10 Xudo Masihni “Maliksidiq singari Oliy ruhoniy” deb eʼlon qildi.
Imonda ulgʻayinglar
11 Oliy ruhoniyimiz haqida sizlarga yana koʻp gapirgan boʻlardim–u, ammo qanday qilib sizlarga tushuntirishni bilmayman, chunki sizning aqlingiz oʻtmas boʻlib qolgan. 12 Sizlar oʻzlaringiz allaqachon ustozlik qilishingiz kerak edi! Ammo siz boshqalarga emas, boshqalar sizlarga Xudo kalomining ilk asoslarini oʻrgatishlari kerak. Sizlar hali ham sutga muhtojsiz! Quyuq ovqatni hazm qila olmaysiz. 13 Sut bilan oziqlanadigan har bir kishi hali chaqaloq. U toʻgʻri bilan notoʻgʻrining farqiga bormaydi. 14 Quyuq ovqat esa ulgʻayganlar uchundir. Ular tajriba orttirib, yaxshini yomondan farqlay oladilar.
