1: ThisG3778 forG1063 -G3588 Melchizedek,G3198 kingG0935 of Salem,G4532 priestG2409 -G3588 of GodG2316 -G3588 Most High,G5310 -G3588 having metG4876 AbrahamG0011 returningG5290 fromG0575 theG3588 slaughterG2871 of theG3588 kingsG0935 andG2532 having blessedG2127 him,G0846
2: [is he] to whomG3739 alsoG2532 a tenthG1181 ofG0575 allG3956 apportionedG3307 Abraham,G0011 firstG4412 indeedG3303 being translated,G2059 kingG0935 of righteousness;G1343 thenG1899 andG1161 also,G2532 kingG0935 of Salem,G4532 whichG3739 is,G1510 kingG0935 of peace.G1515
3: Without father,G0540 without mother,G0282 without genealogy,G0035 neitherG3383 beginningG0746 of daysG2250 norG3383 of lifeG2222 endG5056 having,G2192 having been made likeG0871 howeverG1161 theG3588 SonG5207 -G3588 of God,G2316 he remainsG3306 a priestG2409 untoG1519 -G3588 all time.G1336
4: ConsiderG2334 nowG1161 how greatG4080 this one [was],G3778 to whomG3739 evenG2532 a tenthG1181 AbrahamG0011 gaveG1325 out ofG1537 theG3588 best spoils,G0205 theG3588 patriarch.G3966
5: AndG2532 thoseG3588 indeed,G3303 out fromG1537 theG3588 sonsG5207 of Levi,G3017 theG3588 priestly officeG2405 receiving,G2983 a commandmentG1785 haveG2192 to take a tenthG0586 from theG3588 peopleG2992 according toG2596 theG3588 law,G3551 thatG3778 is,G1510 from theG3588 brothersG0080 of them,G0846 thoughG2539 having comeG1831 out ofG1537 theG3588 loinG3751 of Abraham.G0011
6: The [one]G3588 howeverG1161 notG3361 tracing his ancestryG1075 fromG1537 themG0846 has collected a tenthG1183 from Abraham,G0011 andG2532 the [one]G3588 havingG2192 theG3588 promisesG1860 has blessed.G2127
7: Apart fromG5565 nowG1161 allG3956 dispute,G0485 theG3588 inferiorG1640 byG5259 theG3588 superiorG2909 is blessed.G2127
8: AndG2532 hereG5602 indeedG3303 tithes,G1181 dyingG0599 menG0444 receive;G2983 in that placeG1563 however,G1161 it is testifiedG3140 thatG3754 he lives on.G2198
9: AndG2532 so,G5613 a wordG2031 to speak,G2036 throughG1223 AbrahamG0011 also,G2532 Levi,G3017 the [one]G3588 tithesG1181 receiving,G2983 paid the tithe.G1183
10: StillG2089 forG1063 inG1722 theG3588 loinG3751 of [his]G3588 fatherG3962 he was,G1510 whenG3753 metG4876 himG0846 Melchizedek.G3198
11: IfG1487 indeedG3303 thenG3767 perfectionG5050 byG1223 theG3588 LeviticalG3020 priesthoodG2420 were—G1510 theG3588 peopleG2992 forG1063 uponG1909 itG0846 had received [the] Law—G3549 whatG5101 stillG2089 need [was there],G5532 according toG2596 theG3588 orderG5010 of Melchizedek,G3198 [for] anotherG2087 to ariseG0450 priestG2409 andG2532 notG3756 according toG2596 theG3588 orderG5010 of AaronG0002 to be named?G3004
12: Being changedG3346 forG1063 of theG3588 priesthood,G2420 fromG1537 necessityG0318 also,G2532 of lawG3551 a changeG3331 takes place.G1096
13: [He] concerningG1909 whomG3739 forG1063 are saidG3004 these thingsG3778 a tribeG5443 anotherG2087 belonged to,G3348 fromG0575 whichG3739 no oneG3762 has servedG4337 at theG3588 altar.G2379
14: [It is] evidentG4271 forG1063 thatG3754 out ofG1537 JudahG2448 has sprungG0393 theG3588 LordG2962 of us,G1473 as toG1519 whichG3739 a tribe,G5443 concerningG4012 priests,G2409 nothingG3762 MosesG3475 spoke.G2980
15: AndG2532 more abundantlyG4053 yetG2089 evidentG2612 it is,G1510 ifG1487 according toG2596 theG3588 likenessG3665 of MelchizedekG3198 arisesG0450 a priestG2409 another,G2087
16: whoG3739 notG3756 according toG2596 a lawG3551 of a commandmentG1785 fleshlyG4560 has been constituted,G1096 butG0235 according toG2596 [the] powerG1411 of a lifeG2222 indestructible.G0179
17: It is testifiedG3140 forG1063 -:G3754 You [are]G4771 a priestG2409 toG1519 theG3588 age,G0165 according toG2596 theG3588 orderG5010 of Melchizedek.G3198
18: A putting awayG0115 indeedG3303 forG1063 there isG1096 of the precedingG4254 commandment,G1785 because ofG1223 -G3588 itsG0846 weaknessG0772 andG2532 uselessness—G0512
19: nothingG3762 forG1063 perfectedG5048 theG3588 law—G3551 [the] introductionG1898 thenG1161 of a betterG2909 hope,G1680 byG1223 whichG3739 we draw nearG1448 -G3588 to God.G2316
20: AndG2532 toG2596 as much asG3745 notG3756 apart fromG5565 an oath,G3728 those onesG3588 trulyG3303 forG1063 withoutG5565 an oathG3728 areG1510 priestsG2409 becoming,G1096
21: [He]G3588 howeverG1161 withG3326 an oath,G3728 throughG1223 the [One]G3588 sayingG3004 toG4314 Him:G0846 Has swornG3660 [the] Lord,G2962 andG2532 notG3756 will change His mind,G3338 You [are]G4771 a priestG2409 toG1519 theG3588 age.G0165
22: ByG2596 so muchG5118 alsoG2532 of a betterG2909 covenantG1242 has becomeG1096 [the] guaranteeG1450 Jesus.G2424
23: AndG2532 thoseG3588 indeedG3303 manyG4119 areG1510 having becomeG1096 priests,G2409 because ofG1223 -G3588 by deathG2288 being prevented fromG2967 continuing.G3887
24: -G3588 ButG1161 because ofG1223 theG3588 abidingG3306 of HimG0846 toG1519 theG3588 age,G0165 a permanentG0531 He holdsG2192 -G3588 priesthood,G2420
25: whereforeG3606 also,G2532 to saveG4982 toG1519 theG3588 uttermostG3838 He is able,G1410 thoseG3588 drawing nearG4334 throughG1223 HimG0846 -G3588 to God,G2316 alwaysG3842 livingG2198 forG1519 -G3588 to intercedeG1793 forG5228 them.G0846
26: SuchG5108 indeedG1063 for usG1473 alsoG2532 was fittingG4241 a high priest,G0749 holy,G3741 innocent,G0172 undefiled,G0283 having been separatedG5563 fromG0575 -G3588 sinners,G0268 andG2532 higherG5308 than theG3588 heavensG3772 having become,G1096
27: whoG3739 notG3756 hasG2192 everyG2596 dayG2250 need,G0318 asG5618 theG3588 high priests,G0749 firstG4386 forG5228 theG3588 ownG2398 sins,G0266 sacrificesG2378 to offer up,G0399 thenG1899 for thoseG3588 of theG3588 people;G2992 thisG3778 forG1063 He didG4160 once for all,G2178 HimselfG1438 having offered up.G0399
28: TheG3588 lawG3551 forG1063 menG0444 appointsG2525 as high priests,G0749 havingG2192 weakness;G0769 theG3588 wordG3056 howeverG1161 of theG3588 oath,G3728 which [is]G3588 afterG3326 theG3588 law,G3551 a SonG5207 toG1519 theG3588 age,G0165 having been perfected.G5048
