Hebrews 5:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible
5 So likewise Christ took not to himself this honor to be made the high Priest, but he that said unto him, (A)Thou art my son, this day begat I thee, gave it him.
6 As he also in another place speaketh, (B)Thou art a Priest forever, after the [a]order of Melchizedek,
7 [b]Who in the [c]days of his flesh did offer up prayers and supplications, with strong crying and tears unto him, that was able to [d]save him from death, and was also heard in that which he feared.
