Hebrews 7:1-7
1For this Melchisedec, KingG935 of SalemG4532, priestG2409 of the mostG5310 highG5310 1GodG2316, who met AbrahamG11 returningG5290 from smiting the kingsG935, and blessedG2127 him;
2to whom AbrahamG11 gave alsoG2532 the tenth portion of all; firstG4413 beingG1510 interpreted KingG935 of righteousnessG1343, and then alsoG2532 KingG935 of SalemG4532, which isG1510 KingG935 of peaceG1515;
3without father, without mother, without genealogy; having neither beginning of daysG2250 nor endG5056 of lifeG2222, but assimilated to the SonG5207 of 2GodG2316, abidesG3306 a priestG2409 continually.
4NowG1161 consider howG4080 great this [personage] was, to whom [evenG2532] the patriarchG3966 AbrahamG11 gaveG1325 a tenth out of the spoils.
5And they indeed from among the sonsG5207 of LeviG3017, who receiveG2983 the priesthood, have commandmentG1785 to takeG2983 tithes from the peopleG2992 accordingG2596 to the lawG3551, that isG1510 from their brethren, though these areG1510 comeG1831 out of the loinsG3751 of AbrahamG11:
6but he who has no genealogy from them has tithed AbrahamG11, and blessedG2127 him who had the promisesG1860.
7But beyond all gainsaying, the inferior is blessedG2127 by the better.
