    1For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the defeat of the kings, and blessed him;

    2To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and then also King of Salem, which is, King of peace;

    3Without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like the Son of God; remains a priest continually.

    4Now consider how great this man was, to whom even the patriarch Abraham gave a tenth of the spoils.

    5And indeed those who are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes from the people according to the law, that is, from their brothers, though they come from the loins of Abraham:

    6But he whose genealogy is not counted from them received tithes from Abraham, and blessed him who had the promises.

    7And without all contradiction the lesser is blessed by the greater.

    8And here mortal men receive tithes; but there he receives them, of whom it is witnessed that he lives.

    9And, as I may say, Levi also, who receives tithes, paid tithes through Abraham.

    10For he was still in the loins of his father when Melchizedek met him.

    11If therefore perfection were through the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should arise after the order of Melchizedek, and not be called after the order of Aaron?

    12For the priesthood being changed, there is of necessity a change also of the law.

    13For he of whom these things are spoken belongs to another tribe, of which no man attended the altar.

    15And it is yet far more evident: for in the likeness of Melchizedek there arises another priest,

    16Who is made, not after the law of a fleshly commandment, but according to the power of an endless life.

    17For he testifies, You are a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.

    19For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by which we draw near to God.

    20And inasmuch as he was not made priest without an oath:

    21For those priests were made without an oath; but this one with an oath by him that said to him, The Lord has sworn and will not change his mind, You are a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek:

    22By so much was Jesus made the guarantor of a better covenant.

    23And they truly were many priests, because they were not allowed to continue by reason of death:

    24But he, because he continues forever, has an unchangeable priesthood.

    1Now of the things we have spoken this is the sum: We have such a high priest, who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens;

    2A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord set up, and not man.

    3For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices; therefore it is necessary that this man also have something to offer.

    4For if he were on earth, he would not be a priest, since there are priests that offer gifts according to the law;

    5Who serve as an example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was warned by God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, says He, that you make all things according to the pattern shown to you on the mount.

    26For such a high priest was fitting for us, who is holy, innocent, undefiled, separate from sinners, and exalted above the heavens;

    27Who does not need daily, like those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for he did this once, when he offered up himself.

    28For the law appoints as high priests men who have weaknesses; but the word of the oath, which came after the law, appoints the Son, who is perfected forever.
