Hebrews 7:5-9

5NowG2532G3303 theG3588 lawG3551 commandsG2192G1785 theG3588 sonsG1537G3588G5207 of LeviG3017 who becomeG2983 priestsG2405 to collect a tenthG586 from theG3588 peopleG2992—thatG3778 isG1510, fromG3588 theirG846 brothersG80—thoughG2539 they too are descendedG1831 fromG1537G3588G3751 AbrahamG11. 6ButG1161 Melchizedek, who did not trace his descentG3361G1075 fromG1537 Levi, collected a tenthG1183 from AbrahamG11 andG2532 blessedG2127 him whoG3588 hadG2192 theG3588 promisesG1860. 7AndG1161 indisputablyG5565G3956G485, theG3588 lesserG1640 is blessedG2127 byG5259 theG3588 greaterG2909.

8In the caseG2532G3303G5602 of the Levites, mortalG599 menG444 collectG2983 the tenthG1181; butG1161 in the caseG1563 of Melchizedek, it is affirmedG3140 thatG3754 he lives onG2198. 9AndG2532 soG5613 to speakG2031G2036, LeviG3017, whoG3588 collectsG2983 the tenthG1181, paid the tenthG1183 throughG1223 AbrahamG11.
