5AndG2532 verilyG3303 they that are ofG1537 the sonsG5207 of LeviG3017, whoG3588 receiveG2983 the office of the priesthoodG2405, haveG2192 a commandmentG1785 to take tithesG586 from the peopleG2992 according toG2596 the lawG3551, that isG5123, from theirG846 brethrenG80, thoughG2539 they comeG1831 fromG1537 the loinsG3751 of AbrahamG11:

6ButG1161 he whose descent isG1075 notG3361 countedG1075 fromG1537 themG846 received tithesG1183 from AbrahamG11, andG2532 blessedG2127 him that hadG2192 the promisesG1860.1

7AndG1161 withoutG5565 anyG3956 disputeG485 the lessG1640 is blessedG2127 byG5259 the betterG2909.
