    1 For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of God Most High, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him,

    2 to whom also Abraham divided a tenth part of all (being first, by interpretation, king of righteousness, and then also king of Salem, which is king of peace;

    3 without 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.

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

    5 They indeed of the sons of Levi who receive the priest's office have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brothers, though these have come out of the body of Abraham,

    6 but he whose genealogy is not counted from them has accepted tithes from Abraham, and has blessed him who has the promises.

    7 But without any dispute the lesser is blessed by the greater.

    8 Here people who die receive tithes, but there one receives tithes of whom it is testified that he lives.

    9 We can say that through Abraham even Levi, who receives tithes, has paid tithes,

    10 for he was yet in the body of his father when Melchizedek met him.

    11 Now if there was perfection through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people have received the law), what further need was there for another priest to arise after the order of Melchizedek, and not be called after the order of Aaron?

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

    13 For he of whom these things are said belongs to another tribe, from which no one has officiated at the altar.

    15 This is yet more abundantly evident, if after the likeness of Melchizedek there arises another priest,

    16 who has been made, not after the law of a fleshly commandment, but after the power of an endless life:

    17 for it is testified, "You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek."

    19 (for the law made nothing perfect), and a bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.

    20 Inasmuch as he was not made priest without the taking of an oath

    21 (for they indeed have been made priests without an oath), but he with an oath by him that says of him, "The Lord swore and will not change his mind, 'You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.'"

    22 By so much, Jesus has become the collateral of a better covenant.

    23 Many, indeed, have been made priests, because they are hindered from continuing by death.

    24 But he, because he lives forever, has his priesthood unchangeable.

    1 Now in the things which we are saying, the main point is this. We have such a high priest, who sat down on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,

    2 a servant of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, not man.

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

    4 For if he were on earth, he would not be a priest at all, seeing there are priests who offer the gifts according to the law;

    5 who serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly things, even as Moses was warned by God when he was about to make the tabernacle, for he said, "See, you shall make everything according to the pattern that was shown to you on the mountain."

    26 For such a high priest was fitting for us: holy, guiltless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;

    27 who doesn't need, like those high priests, to offer up sacrifices daily, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people. For he did this once for all, when he offered up himself.

    28 For the law appoints men as high priests who have weakness, but the word of the oath which came after the law appoints a Son forever who has been perfected.
