Hebrews 7:4-6

4Now observe how great this man was to whom Abraham, the 1patriarch, 2gave a tenth of the choicest spoils.

5And those indeed of 3the sons of Levi who receive the priest’s office have a commandment 4in the Law to collect 5a tenth from the people, that is, from their countrymen, although they 6are descended from Abraham.

6But the one 7whose genealogy is not traced from them 8collected 9a tenth from Abraham and 1011blessed the one who 12had the promises.
