Hebrews 5:4–5
Hebrews 5:4–5 — New International Version (2011) (NIV)
4 And no one takes this honor on himself, but he receives it when called by God, just as Aaron was.
5 In the same way, Christ did not take on himself the glory of becoming a high priest. But God said to him,
“You are my Son;
today I have become your Father.”
Hebrews 5:4–5 — English Standard Version (ESV)
4 And no one takes this honor for himself, but only when called by God, just as Aaron was.
5 So also Christ did not exalt himself to be made a high priest, but was appointed by him who said to him,
“You are my Son,
today I have begotten you”;
Hebrews 5:4–5 — New Living Translation (NLT)
4 And no one can become a high priest simply because he wants such an honor. He must be called by God for this work, just as Aaron was. 5 That is why Christ did not honor himself by assuming he could become High Priest. No, he was chosen by God, who said to him,
“You are my Son.
Today I have become your Father.”
Hebrews 5:4–5 — The New King James Version (NKJV)
4 And no man takes this honor to himself, but he who is called by God, just as Aaron was.
5 So also Christ did not glorify Himself to become High Priest, but it was He who said to Him:
“You are My Son,
Today I have begotten You.”
Hebrews 5:4–5 — New Century Version (NCV)
4 To be a high priest is an honor, but no one chooses himself for this work. He must be called by God as Aaron was. 5 So also Christ did not choose himself to have the honor of being a high priest, but God chose him. God said to him,
“You are my Son.
Today I have become your Father.”
Hebrews 5:4–5 — American Standard Version (ASV)
4 And no man taketh the honor unto himself, but when he is called of God, even as was Aaron. 5 So Christ also glorified not himself to be made a high priest, but he that spake unto him,
Thou art my Son,
This day have I begotten thee:
Hebrews 5:4–5 — 1890 Darby Bible (DARBY)
4 And no one takes the honour to himself but as called by God, even as Aaron also. 5 Thus the Christ also has not glorified himself to be made a high priest; but he who had said to him, Thou art my Son, I have to-day begotten thee.
Hebrews 5:4–5 — GOD’S WORD Translation (GW)
4 No one takes this honor for himself. Instead, God calls him as he called Aaron. 5 So Christ did not take the glory of being a chief priest for himself. Instead, the glory was given to him by God, who said,
“You are my Son.
Today I have become your Father.”
Hebrews 5:4–5 — The Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)
4 No one takes this honor on himself; instead, a person is called by God, just as Aaron was. 5 In the same way, the Messiah did not exalt Himself to become a high priest, but the One who said to Him, You are My Son; today I have become Your Father,
Hebrews 5:4–5 — The New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)
4 And one does not presume to take this honor, but takes it only when called by God, just as Aaron was.
5 So also Christ did not glorify himself in becoming a high priest, but was appointed by the one who said to him,
“You are my Son,
today I have begotten you”;
Hebrews 5:4–5 — The Lexham English Bible (LEB)

“You are my Son, today I have begotten you,”
Hebrews 5:4–5 — New International Reader’s Version (1998) (NIrV)
4 No one can take that honor for himself. He must be appointed by God, just as Aaron was.

“You are my Son.
Today I have become your Father.”
Hebrews 5:4–5 — New American Standard Bible (1995) (NASB95)
4 And no one takes the honor to himself, but receives it when he is called by God, even as Aaron was.
5 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”;
