Hebrews 5:4-6
New Century Version
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[a] 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.” Psalm 2:7
6 And in another Scripture God says,
“You are a priest forever,
a priest like Melchizedek.”[b] Psalm 110:4
