New American Standard Bible 1995

Hebrews 5:8-14

8Although He was 1a Son, He learned 2obedience from the things which He suffered. 9And having been made 3perfect, He became to all those who obey Him the source of eternal salvation, 10being designated by God as 4a high priest according to 5the order of Melchizedek.

11Concerning 6him we have much to say, and it is hard to explain, since you have become dull of hearing. 12For though 7by this time you ought to be teachers, you have need again for someone to teach you 8the 9 10elementary principles of the 11oracles of God, and you have come to need 12milk and not solid food. 13For everyone who partakes only of milk is not accustomed to the word of righteousness, for he is an 13infant. 14But solid food is for 14the mature, who because of practice have their senses 15trained to 16discern good and evil.
