Hebrews 5:5-10 Common English Bible (CEB)

In the same way Christ also didn’t promote himself to become high priest. Instead, it was the one who said to him,
You are my Son.
        Today I have become your Father,
as he also says in another place,
You are a priest forever,
        according to the order of Melchizedek.[a]
During his days on earth, Christ offered prayers and requests with loud cries and tears as his sacrifices to the one who was able to save him from death. He was heard because of his godly devotion. Although he was a Son, he learned obedience from what he suffered. After he had been made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for everyone who obeys him. 10 He was appointed by God to be a high priest according to the order of Melchizedek.
