Who being the brightness of glory, and the figure of his foundation, and bearing all things by the word of his power, having made by himself the purification of our sins, he sat down on the right hand of the Majesty among the highest ones;

For in that he himself has suffered, having been tempted, he is able to help the tempted.

And for this he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to bring in for sins.

And not any takes this honour to himself; but the called of God, as also Aaron.

So also Christ honoured not himself, to become chief priest; but he having spoken to him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee.

For God promising to Abraham, since he had none greater to swear by, sware by himself,

Who has no necessity according to the day, as the chief priests, before to bring up sacrifices for their own sins, then for those of the people; for this he did once, having brought up himself.

And into the second the chief priest alone once a year, not without blood, which he brings near for himself, and the errors of the people:

How much more shall the blood of Christ, who by the eternal Spirit offered himself blameless to God, purify your consciousness from dead works to serve the living God?

Neither that he should offer himself many times, as the chief priest comes in to the holy places yearly with blood pertaining to others;

(Since he must have suffered many times from the foundation of the world:) but now once at the termination of the times for the annulling of sin by the sacrifice of himself has he been shown clearly.

For reckon over him having endured such contradiction of the sinful against himself, lest being harassed, ye labor in your souls.
