For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.

Verse 12 is found in chapter 5 of Hebrews. The author interrupts the explanation concerning Melchizedek to rebuke his readers’ spiritual immaturity. The inability to receive deeper teaching is presented as the consequence of a lack of growth, not as an unavoidable intellectual limitation.

Und die ihr solltet längst Meister sein, bedürft wiederum, daß man euch die ersten Buchstaben der göttlichen Worte lehre und daß man euch Milch gebe und nicht starke Speise.
Porque debiendo ser ya maestros a causa del tiempo, tenéis necesidad de volver a ser enseñados cuáles sean los primeros rudimentos de las palabras de Dios; y habéis llegado a ser tales que tengáis necesidad de leche, y no de manjar sólido.
Pues, aunque por el tiempo transcurrido ya deberían ser maestros, necesitan que alguien vuelva a enseñarles los principios elementales de las palabras de Dios. Han llegado a necesitar leche en vez de alimento sólido.
Vous, en effet, qui depuis longtemps devriez être des maîtres, vous avez encore besoin qu'on vous enseigne les premiers rudiments des oracles de Dieu, vous en êtes venus à avoir besoin de lait et non d'une nourriture solide.
Poichè, là dove voi dovreste esser maestri, rispetto al tempo, avete di nuovo bisogno che vi s’insegnino quali sieno gli elementi del principio degli oracoli di Dio; e siete venuti a tale, che avete bisogno di latte, e non di cibo sodo.
Porque, devendo já ser mestres pelo tempo, ainda necessitais de que se vos torne a ensinar quais sejam os primeiros rudimentos das palavras de Deus; e vos haveis feito tais que necessitais de leite, e não de sólido mantimento.
按時間說,你們早該作教師了,誰知還需要有人再將上帝聖言基礎的要道教導你們;你們成了那需要吃奶、不能吃乾糧的人。
