PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 El sumo sacerdote es escogido de entre los hombres para representarlos ante Dios y para ofrecer ofrendas y sacrificios por los pecados.
1 For every high priest, being taken from among men, is appointed for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins.
1 Πᾶς γὰρ ἀρχιερεὺς ἐξ ἀνθρώπων λαμβανόμενος ὑπὲρ ἀνθρώπων καθίσταται τὰ πρὸς τὸν Θεόν, ἵνα προσφέρῃ δῶρά τε καὶ θυσίας ὑπὲρ ἁμαρτιῶν,
2 Y lo hace tanto por los pecados del pueblo como por los suyos propios, ya que como ser humano tiene muchas debilidades. Y por eso mismo, puede ser comprensivo con quienes son ignorantes y andan extraviados.
2 The high priest can deal gently with those who are ignorant and going astray, because he himself is also surrounded with weakness.
2 μετριοπαθεῖν δυνάμενος τοῖς ἀγνοοῦσι καὶ πλανωμένοις, ἐπεὶ καὶ αὐτὸς περίκειται ἀσθένειαν·
3 Not in this translation
3 Because of this, he must offer sacrifices for sins for the people, as well as for himself.
3 καὶ διὰ ταύτην ὀφείλει, καθὼς περὶ τοῦ λαοῦ, οὕτω καὶ περὶ ἑαυτοῦ προσφέρειν ὑπὲρ ἁμαρτιῶν.
4 Nadie puede hacerse sumo sacerdote por su propia cuenta. Al sumo sacerdote lo llama Dios, como en el caso de Aarón.
4 Nobody takes this honor on himself, but he is called by God, just like Aaron was.
4 καὶ οὐχ ἑαυτῷ τις λαμβάνει τὴν τιμήν, ἀλλὰ καλούμενος ὑπὸ τοῦ Θεοῦ, καθάπερ καὶ Ἀαρών.
5 Ni siquiera Cristo eligió él mismo ser sumo sacerdote, sino que Dios lo eligió y le dio ese honor cuando dijo: «Tú eres Hijo mío, yo te he engendrado hoy».
5 So also Christ didn’t glorify himself to be made a high priest, but it was he who said to him, “You are my Son. Today I have become your father.”
5 οὕτω καὶ ὁ Χριστὸς οὐχ ἑαυτὸν ἐδόξασε γενηθῆναι ἀρχιερέα, ἀλλ᾽ ὁ λαλήσας πρὸς αὐτόν· υἱός μου εἶ σύ, ἐγὼ σήμερον γεγέννηκά σε·
6 Y en otra ocasión le dijo: «Tú eres sacerdote eterno, de la misma clase de Melquisedec».
6 As he says also in another place, “You are a priest forever, after the order of Melchizedek.”
6 καθὼς καὶ ἐν ἑτέρῳ λέγει· σὺ ἱερεὺς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα κατὰ τὴν τάξιν Μελχισεδέκ.
7 Cuando Cristo estaba en la tierra, con voz fuerte y muchas lágrimas ofreció ruegos y súplicas a Dios, quien podía librarlo de la muerte. Y Dios escuchó sus oraciones en virtud de su ferviente deseo de obedecer a Dios.
7 He, in the days of his flesh, having offered up prayers and petitions with strong crying and tears to him who was able to save him from death, and having been heard for his godly fear,
7 ὃς ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις τῆς σαρκὸς αὐτοῦ δεήσεις τε καὶ ἱκετηρίας πρὸς τὸν δυνάμενον σῴζειν αὐτὸν ἐκ θανάτου μετὰ κραυγῆς ἰσχυρᾶς καὶ δακρύων προσενέγκας, καὶ εἰσακουσθεὶς ἀπὸ τῆς εὐλαβείας,
8 ¡Aun Jesús, siendo Hijo de Dios, tuvo que aprender por medio del sufrimiento lo que es la obediencia!
8 though he was a Son, yet learned obedience by the things which he suffered.
8 καίπερ ὢν υἱός, ἔμαθεν ἀφ᾽ ὧν ἔπαθε τὴν ὑπακοήν,
9 Y habiendo sido perfeccionado de esa manera, llegó a ser el autor de la salvación eterna de todos los que lo obedecen.
9 Having been made perfect, he became to all of those who obey him the author of eternal salvation,
9 καὶ τελειωθεὶς ἐγένετο τοῖς ὑπακούουσιν αὐτῷ πᾶσιν αἴτιος σωτηρίας αἰωνίου,
10 Y Dios lo nombró sumo sacerdote de la misma clase de Melquisedec.
10 named by God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek.
10 προσαγορευθεὶς ὑπὸ τοῦ Θεοῦ ἀρχιερεὺς κατὰ τὴν τάξιν Μελχισεδέκ.
11 Quisiera decirles mucho más sobre este asunto, pero sé que, como no quieren entender, me va a ser difícil explicarlo.
11 About him we have many words to say, and hard to interpret, seeing you have become dull of hearing.
11 Περὶ οὗ πολὺς ἡμῖν ὁ λόγος καὶ δυσερμήνευτος λέγειν, ἐπεὶ νωθροὶ γεγόνατε ταῖς ἀκοαῖς.
12 Después de tanto tiempo, ya debían poder enseñar a otros; sin embargo, hay necesidad de enseñarles de nuevo hasta los más sencillos principios de la Palabra de Dios. Se han debilitado tanto que, como niños, tienen que tomar sólo leche en vez de alimentos sólidos.
12 For although by this time you should be teachers, you again need to have someone teach you the rudiments of the first principles of the revelations of God. You have come to need milk, and not solid food.
12 καὶ γὰρ ὀφείλοντες εἶναι διδάσκαλοι διὰ τὸν χρόνον, πάλιν χρείαν ἔχετε τοῦ διδάσκειν ὑμᾶς τινα τὰ στοιχεῖα τῆς ἀρχῆς τῶν λογίων τοῦ Θεοῦ, καὶ γεγόνατε χρείαν ἔχοντες γάλακτος καὶ οὐ στερεᾶς τροφῆς.
13 Esto demuestra que todavía no saben diferenciar entre el bien y el mal. ¡Todavía son ustedes como recién nacidos!
13 For everyone who lives on milk is not experienced in the word of righteousness, for he is a baby.
13 πᾶς γὰρ ὁ μετέχων γάλακτος ἄπειρος λόγου δικαιοσύνης· νήπιος γάρ ἐστι·
14 En cambio, los alimentos sólidos son para quienes ya son maduros, para quienes ya están acostumbrados a juzgar y a distinguir entre lo que es bueno y lo que es malo.
14 But solid food is for those who are full grown, who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern good and evil.
14 τελείων δέ ἐστιν ἡ στερεὰ τροφή, τῶν διὰ τὴν ἕξιν τὰ αἰσθητήρια γεγυμνασμένα ἐχόντων πρὸς διάκρισιν καλοῦ τε καὶ κακοῦ.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary 5:1 John Chrysostom, Homilies on Hebrews (Homily VIII)

    The blessed Paul wishes to show in the next place that this covenant is far better than the old. This then he does by first laying down remote considerations.

  2. Quotes verse 5:12–14 Augustine of Hippo, Tractates on the Gospel of John (Chapter XVI — 12, 13)

    But strong meat belongeth to them that are perfect, even those who by habit have their senses exercised to distinguish good from evil." For here we see, as if clearly defined, what he calls the strong meat of the perfect; and which is the same as that which he writes to the Corinthans, "We speak wisdom among them that are …

  3. Quotes verse 5:12 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily XVII)

    … himself, hardly bearing it, because his scholars were delaying a long time in their earlier lessons: "For when for the time," saith he, "ye ought to be teachers, ye have need to be taught again which be the first principles of the oracles of God. " Wherefore we too mourn and lament.

  4. Quotes verse 5:14 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture IV)

    But let those here present whose habit of mind is mature, and who have their senses already exercised to discern good and evil, endure patiently to listen to things fitted rather for children, and to an introductory course, as it were, of milk: that at the same time both those who have need of the instruction may be benefited, …

  5. Quotes verse 5:8 Gregory of Nazianzus, Theological Orations (The Fourth Theological Oration, Which is the Second Concerning the Son)

    The same consideration applies to another passage, "He learnt obedience by the things which He suffered," and to His "strong crying and tears," and His "Entreaties," and His "being heard," and His" Reverence," all of which He wonderfully wrought out, like a drama whose plot was devised on our behalf.
