¹ܟܠ ܪܒ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܓܝܪ ܕܡܢ ܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܗܘܐ ܚܠܦ ܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܩܐܡ ܥܠ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܕܐܠܗܐ ܐܢܝܢ ܕܢܩܪܒ ܩܘܪܒܢܐ ܘܕܒܚܐ ܚܠܦ ܚܛܗܐ ܀

¹For every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins:

²ܐܝܢܐ ܕܡܫܟܚ ܕܢܡܟ ܢܦܫܗ ܘܢܚܫ ܥܡ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܠܐ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܘܛܥܝܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܐܦ ܗܘ ܟܪܝܗܘܬܐ ܠܒܝܫ ܀

²Who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on them that are out of the way; for that he himself also is compassed with infirmity.

³ܘܡܛܠܬܗ ܚܝܒ ܗܘ ܕܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܚܠܦ ܥܡܐ ܗܟܢܐ ܐܦ ܚܠܦ ܢܦܫܗ ܢܩܪܒ ܥܠ ܚܛܗܘܗܝ ܀

³And by reason hereof he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins.

⁴ܘܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܠܢܦܫܗ ܐܢܫ ܢܤܒ ܐܝܩܪܐ ܐܠܐ ܐܝܢܐ ܕܡܬܩܪܐ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܐܗܪܘܢ ܀

⁴And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.

⁵ܗܟܢܐ ܐܦ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܢܦܫܗ ܫܒܚ ܕܢܗܘܐ ܪܒ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܐܠܐ ܗܘ ܕܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܕܒܪܝ ܐܢܬ ܐܢܐ ܝܘܡܢܐ ܝܠܕܬܟ ܀

⁵So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest; but he that said unto him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee.

⁶ܐܝܟ ܕܐܦ ܒܕܘܟܬܐ ܐܚܪܬܐ ܐܡܪ ܕܐܢܬ ܗܘ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܠܥܠܡ ܒܕܡܘܬܗ ܕܡܠܟܝܙܕܩ ܀

⁶As he saith also in another place, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.

⁷ܐܦ ܟܕ ܒܤܪܐ ܠܒܝܫ ܗܘܐ ܒܥܘܬܐ ܘܬܟܫܦܬܐ ܒܓܥܬܐ ܚܝܠܬܢܝܬܐ ܘܒܕܡܥܐ ܩܪܒ ܗܘܐ ܠܡܢ ܕܡܫܟܚ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܡܘܬܐ ܕܢܚܝܘܗܝ ܘܐܫܬܡܥ ܀

⁷Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared;

⁸ܘܟܕ ܛܒ ܒܪܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܡܢ ܕܚܠܬܐ ܘܚܫܐ ܕܤܒܠ ܝܠܦܗ ܠܡܫܬܡܥܢܘܬܐ ܀

⁸Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered;

⁹ܘܗܟܢܐ ܐܬܓܡܪ ܘܗܘܐ ܠܟܠܗܘܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܫܬܡܥܝܢ ܠܗ ܥܠܬܐ ܕܚܝܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ ܀

⁹And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;

¹⁰ܘܐܫܬܡܗ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܪܒ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܒܕܡܘܬܗ ܕܡܠܟܝܙܕܩ ܀

¹⁰Called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec.

¹¹ܥܠܘܗܝ ܕܝܢ ܥܠ ܗܢܐ ܡܠܟܝܙܕܩ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܗܝ ܠܢ ܡܠܬܐ ܠܡܐܡܪܗ ܘܥܤܩܐ ܠܡܦܫܩܘܬܗ ܡܛܠ ܕܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܟܪܝܗܐ ܒܡܫܡܥܬܟܘܢ ܀

¹¹Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing.

¹²ܚܝܒܝܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܡܠܦܢܐ ܠܡܗܘܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܙܒܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܒܝܘܠܦܢܐ ܗܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܬܘܒ ܤܢܝܩܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܬܐܠܦܘܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܐܢܝܢ ܟܬܝܒܬܐ ܩܕܡܝܬܐ ܕܪܝܫ ܡܠܘܗܝ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܤܢܝܩܐ ܥܠ ܚܠܒܐ ܘܠܐ ܥܠ ܡܐܟܘܠܬܐ ܫܪܝܪܬܐ ܀

¹²For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.

¹³ܟܠܢܫ ܕܝܢ ܕܡܐܟܘܠܬܗ ܚܠܒܐ ܗܘ ܠܐ ܡܦܤ ܒܡܠܬܐ ܕܟܐܢܘܬܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܫܒܪܐ ܗܘ ܀

¹³For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.

¹⁴ܕܓܡܝܪܐ ܗܝ ܕܝܢ ܡܐܟܘܠܬܐ ܫܪܝܪܬܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܛܠ ܕܡܕܪܫܝܢ ܐܬܢܦܩܘ ܪܓܫܝܗܘܢ ܠܡܦܪܫ ܛܒܬܐ ܘܒܝܫܬܐ ܀

¹⁴But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
