Hebrews 7:16-24
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.
