WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Διότι πας αρχιερεύς, εξ ανθρώπων λαμβανόμενος, υπέρ ανθρώπων καθίσταται εις τα προς τον Θεόν, διά να προσφέρη δώρα τε και θυσίας υπέρ αμαρτιών,
1 PORQUE todo pontífice, tomado de entre los hombres, es constituído á favor de los hombres en lo que á Dios toca, para que ofrezca presentes 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.
2 δυνάμενος να συμπαθή εις τους αγνοούντας και πλανωμένους, διότι και αυτός είναι περιενδεδυμένος ασθένειαν·
2 Que se pueda compadecer de los ignorantes y extraviados, pues que él también está rodeado de flaqueza;
2 The high priest can deal gently with those who are ignorant and going astray, because he himself is also surrounded with weakness.
3 και διά ταύτην χρεωστεί, καθώς περί του λαού, ούτω και περί εαυτού να προσφέρη θυσίαν υπέρ αμαρτιών.
3 Y por causa de ella debe, como por sí mismo, así también por el pueblo, ofrecer por los pecados.
3 Because of this, he must offer sacrifices for sins for the people, as well as for himself.
4 Και ουδείς λαμβάνει την τιμήν ταύτην εις εαυτόν, αλλ' ο καλούμενος υπό του Θεού, καθώς και ο Ααρών.
4 Ni nadie toma para sí la honra, sino el que es llamado de Dios, como Aarón.
4 Nobody takes this honor on himself, but he is called by God, just like Aaron was.
5 Ούτω και ο Χριστός δεν εδόξασεν εαυτόν διά να γείνη αρχιερεύς, αλλ' ο λαλήσας προς αυτόν· Υιός μου είσαι συ, εγώ σήμερον σε εγέννησα·
5 Así también Cristo no se glorificó á sí mismo haciéndose Pontífice, mas el que le dijo: Tú eres mi Hijo, 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.”
6 καθώς και αλλαχού λέγει· Συ είσαι ιερεύς εις τον αιώνα κατά την τάξιν Μελχισεδέκ.
6 Como también dice en otro [lugar]: Tú eres sacerdote eternamente, según el orden de Melchîsedec.
6 As he says also in another place, “You are a priest forever, after the order of Melchizedek.”
7 Όστις εν ταις ημέραις της σαρκός αυτού, αφού μετά κραυγής δυνατής και δακρύων προσέφερε δεήσεις και ικεσίας προς τον δυνάμενον να σώζη αυτόν εκ του θανάτου, και εισηκούσθη διά την ευλάβειαν αυτού,
7 El cual en los días de su carne, ofreciendo ruegos y súplicas con gran clamor y lágrimas al que le podía librar de la muerte, fué oído por su reverencial miedo.
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,
8 καίτοι ων Υιός, έμαθε την υπακοήν αφ' όσων έπαθε,
8 Y aunque era Hijo, por lo que padeció aprendió la obediencia;
8 though he was a Son, yet learned obedience by the things which he suffered.
9 και γενόμενος τέλειος, κατεστάθη αίτιος σωτηρίας αιωνίου εις πάντας τους υπακούοντας εις αυτόν,
9 Y consumado, vino á ser causa de eterna salud á todos los que le obedecen;
9 Having been made perfect, he became to all of those who obey him the author of eternal salvation,
10 ονομασθείς υπό του Θεού αρχιερεύς κατά την τάξιν Μελχισεδέκ·
10 Nombrado de Dios pontífice según el orden de Melchîsedec.
10 named by God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek.
11 Περί του οποίου πολλά έχομεν να είπωμεν και δυσερμήνευτα, διότι εγείνετε νωθροί τας ακοάς.
11 Del cual tenemos mucho que decir, y dificultoso de declarar, por cuanto sois flacos para oir.
11 About him we have many words to say, and hard to interpret, seeing you have become dull of hearing.
12 Επειδή ενώ ως προς τον καιρόν έπρεπε να ήσθε διδάσκαλοι, πάλιν έχετε χρείαν του να σας διδάσκη τις τα αρχικά στοιχεία των λόγων του Θεού, και κατηντήσατε να έχητε χρείαν γάλακτος και ουχί στερεάς τροφής.
12 Porque debiendo ser ya maestros á causa del tiempo, tenéis necesidad de volver á ser enseñados cuáles sean los primeros rudimentos de las palabras de Dios; y habéis llegado á ser tales que tengáis necesidad de leche, y no de manjar sólido.
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.
13 Διότι πας ο μετέχων γάλακτος είναι άπειρος του λόγου της δικαιοσύνης· επειδή είναι νήπιος·
13 Que cualquiera que participa de la leche, es inhábil para la palabra de la justicia, porque es niño;
13 For everyone who lives on milk is not experienced in the word of righteousness, for he is a baby.
14 των τελείων όμως είναι η στερεά τροφή, οίτινες διά την έξιν έχουσι τα αισθητήρια γεγυμνασμένα εις το να διακρίνωσι το καλόν και το κακόν.
14 Mas la vianda firme es para los perfectos, para los que por la costumbre tienen los sentidos ejercitados en el discernimiento del bien y del mal.
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.

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).
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.

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 …

… 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.

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, …

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.
