Hebrews 7:11-28
11IfG1487 thereforeG3303 perfectionG5050 wereG1510 byG1223 the LeviticalG3020 priesthoodG2420, (forG1063 underG1909 itG846 the peopleG3588G2992 received the lawG3549,) whatG5101 furtherG2089 needG5532 was there thatG450 anotherG2087 priestG2409 should riseG450 afterG2596 the orderG3588G5010 of MelchisedecG3198, andG2532 notG3756 be calledG3004 afterG2596 the orderG3588G5010 of AaronG2? 12ForG1063 the priesthoodG3588G2420 being changedG3346, there is madeG1096 ofG1537 necessityG318 a changeG3331 alsoG2532 of the lawG3551. 13ForG1063 heG3348 ofG1909 whomG3739 these thingsG3778 are spokenG3004 pertainethG3348 toG5443 anotherG2087 tribeG5443, ofG575 whichG3739 no manG3762 gave attendanceG4337 at the altarG3588G2379. 14ForG1063 it is evidentG4271 thatG3754 ourG1473 LordG3588G2962 sprangG393 out ofG1537 JudahG2448; ofG1519 whichG3739 tribeG5443 MosesG3475 spakeG2980 nothingG3762 concerningG4012 priesthoodG2420. 15AndG2532 it isG1510 yetG2089 far moreG4053 evidentG2612: for thatG1487 afterG2596 the similitudeG3588G3665 of MelchisedecG3198 there arisethG450 anotherG2087 priestG2409, 16WhoG3739 is madeG1096, notG3756 afterG2596 the lawG3551 of aG1785 carnalG4559 commandmentG1785, butG235 afterG2596 the powerG1411 of anG2222 endlessG179 lifeG2222. 17ForG1063 he testifiethG3140, ThouG4771 art a priestG2409 forG1519 everG3588G165 afterG2596 the orderG3588G5010 of MelchisedecG3198. 18ForG1063 there isG1096 verilyG3303 a disannullingG115 of the commandmentG1785 going beforeG4254 forG1223 the weaknessG772 andG2532 unprofitablenessG512 thereofG846. 19ForG1063 the lawG3588G3551 madeG5048 nothingG3762 perfectG5048, butG1161 the bringing inG1898 of aG1680 betterG2909 hopeG1680 did; byG1223 the whichG3739 we draw nighG1448 unto GodG3588G2316.
20AndG2532 inasmuch asG2596G3745 notG3756 withoutG5565 an oathG3728 he was made priest: 21(ForG1063 those priestsG2409 wereG1510 madeG1096 withoutG5565 an oathG3728; butG1161 thisG3588 withG3326 an oathG3728 byG1223 him that saidG3004 untoG4314 himG846, The LordG2962 swareG3660 andG2532 willG3338 notG3756 repentG3338, ThouG4771 art a priestG2409 forG1519 everG3588G165 afterG2596 the orderG3588G5010 of MelchisedecG3198:) 22ByG2596 so muchG5118 wasG1096 JesusG2424 madeG1096 a suretyG1450 of aG1242 betterG2909 testamentG1242.
23AndG2532 theyG1510 trulyG3303 wereG1510 manyG4119 priestsG2409, becauseG1223 they were not sufferedG2967 to continueG3887 by reason of deathG2288: 24ButG1161 thisG3588 man, becauseG1223 heG846 continuethG3306 everG3588G165, hathG2192 anG3588G2420 unchangeableG531 priesthoodG3588G2420. 25WhereforeG3606 he is ableG1410 alsoG2532 to saveG4982 themG3838 toG1519 the uttermostG3838 that comeG4334 unto GodG3588G2316 byG1223 himG846, seeing heG2198 everG3842 livethG2198 toG1519 make intercessionG1793 forG5228 themG846.
26ForG1063 suchG5108 an high priestG749 becameG4241 usG1473, who is holyG3741, harmlessG172, undefiledG283, separateG5563 fromG575 sinnersG268, andG2532 madeG1096 higherG5308 than the heavensG3588G3772; 27WhoG3739 needethG318 notG3756 dailyG2250, asG5618 those high priestsG3588G749, to offer upG399 sacrificeG2378, firstG4386 forG5228 his ownG3588G2398 sinsG266, and thenG1899 for the people’sG3588G2992: forG1063 thisG3778 he didG4160 onceG2178, when he offered upG399 himselfG1438. 28ForG1063 the lawG3588G3551 makethG2525 menG444 high priestsG749 which haveG2192 infirmityG769; butG1161 the wordG3588G3056 of the oathG3588G3728, which wasG3588 sinceG3326 the lawG3588G3551, maketh the SonG5207, who is consecratedG5048 forG1519 evermoreG3588G165.
