Hebrews 7:26-28
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
God’s Son Perfected Forever Is a Fitting High Priest For Us
26 For such a High Priest was indeed fitting for us— holy, innocent, undefiled, having been separated[a] from sinners, and having become higher than the heavens— 27 Who does not have the daily necessity (as indeed the high priests) to be offering sacrifices first for His own sins, then the sins of the people. For He did this once-for-all, having offered Himself. 28 For the Law appoints men having weakness as high priests, but the word of the oath-swearing after[b] the Law appoints a Son having been perfected forever.

Hebrews 7:26-28
King James Version
26 For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
27 Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself.
28 For the law maketh men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for evermore.
