NASB
"And no one takes the honor to himself, but receives it when he is called by God, even as Aaron was."
— Hebrews 5:4, NASB
“And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.”
“And no man taketh the honor unto himself, but when he is called of God, even as was Aaron. ”
“Nobody takes this honor on himself, but he is called by God, just like Aaron was.”
“And no one assumes this honor on his own initiative, but only when called to it by God, as in fact Aaron was.”
“Neither doth any man take the honour to himself, but he that is called by God, as Aaron was.”
“And no man who is not given authority by God, as Aaron was, takes this honour for himself.”
“And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.”
For every high priest taken from among men is appointed on behalf of men in things pertaining to God, in order to offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins;
he can deal gently with the ignorant and misguided, since he himself also is beset with weakness;
and because of it he is obligated to offer sacrifices for sins, as for the people, so also for himself.
And no one takes the honor to himself, but receives it when he is called by God, even as Aaron was.
So also Christ did not glorify Himself so as to become a high priest, but He who said to Him, "YOU ARE MY SON, TODAY I HAVE BEGOTTEN YOU";
just as He says also in another passage, "YOU ARE A PRIEST FOREVER ACCORDING TO THE ORDER OF MELCHIZEDEK."
In the days of His flesh, He offered up both prayers and supplications with loud crying and tears to the One able to save Him from death, and He was heard because of His piety.
