Hebrews 7:21-25
21(for they indeedG3303 becameG1096 priestsG2409 withoutG5565 an oathG3728, but He with an oathG3728 throughG1223 the One who saidG3004 to Him, “1The LordG2962 has swornG3660 And 2will not changeG3338 His mindG3338, ‘You are a priestG2409 3foreverG165’”); 22by the sameG5118 extentG5118 JesusG2424 alsoG2532 has becomeG1096 the 45guaranteeG1450 of 6a betterG2909 covenantG1242.
237The former priestsG2409, on the oneG3303 handG3303, existedG1510G1096 in greaterG4183 numbersG4183 becauseG1223 they were preventedG2967 by deathG2288 from continuingG3887; 248Jesus, on the otherG1161 handG1161, becauseG1223 He continuesG3306 9foreverG165, holdsG2192 His priesthoodG2420 permanentlyG531. 25ThereforeG3606 He is alsoG2532 ableG1410 to 10saveG4982 11foreverG1519G3838 thoseG3588 who 12comeG4334 toG4334 GodG2316 throughG1223 Him, since He alwaysG3842 livesG2198 to 13makeG1793 intercessionG1793 for them.
