NASB
"For it was fitting for us to have such a high priest, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners and exalted above the heavens;"
— Hebrews 7:26, NASB
“For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;”
“For such a high priest became us, holy, guileless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens; ”
“For such a high priest was fitting for us: holy, guiltless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;”
“For it is indeed fitting for us to have such a high priest: holy, innocent, undefiled, separate from sinners, and exalted above the heavens.”
“For it was fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens:”
“It was right for us to have such a high priest, one who is holy and without evil, doing no wrong, having no part with sinners, and made higher than the heavens:”
“For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;”
The former priests, on the one hand, existed in greater numbers because they were prevented by death from continuing,
but Jesus, on the other hand, because He continues forever, holds His priesthood permanently.
Therefore He is able also to save forever those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.
For it was fitting for us to have such a high priest, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners and exalted above the heavens;
who does not need daily, like those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the sins of the people, because this He did once for all when He offered up Himself.
For the Law appoints men as high priests who are weak, but the word of the oath, which came after the Law, appoints a Son, made perfect forever.
