Hebrews 7:11-18

111SoG3767 ifG1487 perfectionG5050 was throughG1223 the LeviticalG3020 priesthoodG2420 (for on the basisG1909 of it 2the peopleG2992 receivedG3549 theG3549 LawG3549), whatG5101 furtherG2089 needG5532 was there for anotherG2087 priestG2409 to ariseG450 3accordingG2596 to the orderG5010 of MelchizedekG3198, and not be designatedG3004 accordingG2596 to the orderG5010 of AaronG2? 12For when the priesthoodG2420 is changedG3346, of necessityG318 there takesG1096 placeG1096 a changeG3331 of lawG3551 alsoG2532. 13For 4the one aboutG1909 whomG3739 5theseG3778 thingsG3778 are saidG3004 belongsG3348 to anotherG2087 tribeG5443, from whichG3739 noG3762 oneG3762 has officiatedG4337 at the altarG2379. 14For it is evidentG4271 that our LordG2962 6was 7descendedG393 from JudahG2455, a tribeG5443 with referenceG1519 to whichG3739 MosesG3475 saidG2980 nothingG3762 concerningG4012 priestsG2409. 15And this is clearerG2612 stillG2089, ifG1487 anotherG2087 priestG2409 arisesG450 accordingG2596 to the likenessG3665 of MelchizedekG3198, 16whoG3739 has becomeG1096 a priest not on the basisG2596 of a lawG3551 of 89physicalG4560 requirementG1785, but accordingG2596 to the powerG1411 of 10an indestructibleG179 lifeG2222. 17For it is attestedG3140 of Him, “11You are a priestG2409 foreverG165 AccordingG2596 to the orderG5010 of MelchizedekG3198.” 18For, on the oneG3303 handG3303, there is the nullificationG115 of a formerG4254 commandmentG1785 12becauseG1223 of its weaknessG772 and uselessnessG512
