Hebrews 5:11-14
1599 Geneva Bible
11 [a]Of whom we have many things to say, which are hard to be uttered, because ye are dull of hearing.
12 [b]For when as concerning the time ye ought to be teachers, yet have ye need again that we teach you what are the first principles of the word of God: and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.
13 For everyone that useth milk, is inexpert in the [c]word of righteousness: for he is a babe.
14 But strong meat belongeth to them that are of age, which through long custom have their [d]wits exercised, to discern both good and evil.
