Hebrews 7:1-7

1For thisG3778 1MelchizedekG3198, kingG935 of SalemG4532, priestG2409 of the 2MostG5310 HighG5310 GodG2316, who metG4876 AbrahamG11 as he was returningG5290 from the slaughterG2871 of the kingsG935 and blessedG2127 him, 2to whomG3739 alsoG2532 AbrahamG11 apportionedG3307 a tenthG1181 partG1181 of allG3956 the spoils, was firstG4413 of allG4413, by the translationG2059 of his name, kingG935 of righteousnessG1343, and thenG1899 alsoG2532 kingG935 of SalemG4532, whichG3739 is kingG935 of peaceG1515. 3WithoutG540 fatherG540, withoutG282 motherG282, 3withoutG35 genealogyG35, havingG2192 neitherG3383 beginningG746 of daysG2250 norG3383 endG5056 of lifeG2222, but madeG871 likeG871 4the SonG5207 of GodG2316, he remainsG3306 a priestG2409 perpetuallyG1519G1336.

4NowG1161 observeG2334 howG4080 greatG4080 thisG3778 manG3778 was to whomG3739 AbrahamG11, the 5patriarchG3966, 6gaveG1325 a tenthG1181 of the choicestG205 spoilsG205. 5And thoseG3588 indeedG3303 of 7the sonsG5207 of LeviG3017 who receiveG2983 the priest’sG2405 officeG2405 haveG2192 commandmentG1785 8in the LawG3551 to collectG586 9a tenthG586 from the peopleG2992, that is, from their brethrenG80, althoughG2539 these 10are descendedG1831G3751 from AbrahamG11. 6But the one 11whose genealogyG1075 is not tracedG1075 from them 12collectedG1183 13a tenthG1183 from AbrahamG11 and 1415blessedG2127 the one who 16hadG2192 the promisesG1860. 7But withoutG5565 anyG3956 disputeG485 the lesserG1640 is blessedG2127 by the greaterG2909.
