希伯来书 7
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
至高 神的祭司麦基洗德
7 这麦基洗德就是撒冷王，又是至高 神的祭司。亚伯拉罕杀败众王回来的时候，麦基洗德迎接他，并且给他祝福。 2 亚伯拉罕也把自己得来的一切，拿出十分之一来给他。麦基洗德这名字翻译出来，头一个意思就是“公义的王”；其次是“撒冷王”，就是“平安的王”的意思。 3 他没有父亲，没有母亲，没有族谱，也没有生死的记录，而是与 神的儿子相似，永远作祭司。
麦基洗德的祭司职分
4 你们想一想这人是多么伟大啊！祖先亚伯拉罕也要从上等的掳物中，拿出十分之一来给了他。 5 那些领受祭司职分的利未子孙，奉命按照律法向人民，就是自己的弟兄，收取十分之一；虽然他们都是出于亚伯拉罕的。 6 可是那不与他们同谱系的麦基洗德，反而收纳了亚伯拉罕的十分之一，并且给这蒙受应许的人祝福。 7 向来都是位分大的给位分小的祝福，这是毫无疑问的。 8 在这里，收取十分之一的，都是必死的；但在那里，收纳十分之一的，却被证实是一位活着的。 9 并且可以这样说，连那收取十分之一的利未，也透过亚伯拉罕缴纳了十分之一。 10 因为麦基洗德迎接亚伯拉罕的时候，利未还在他祖先的身体里面。
耶稣按麦基洗德体系作祭司
11 这样看来，如果借着利未人的祭司制度能达到完全的地步（人民是在这制度下领受律法的），为甚么还需要照着麦基洗德的体系，另外兴起一位祭司，而不照着亚伦的体系呢？ 12 祭司的制度既然更改了，律法也必须更改。 13 因为这些话所指的那位，原是属于另外一个支派的，这支派向来没有人在祭坛前供职。 14 我们的主明明是从犹大支派出来的，关于这个支派，摩西并没有提及祭司的事。 15 如果有另一位像麦基洗德那样的祭司兴起来，那么，这里所说的就更明显了。 16 他成了祭司，不是按着律法上肉身的条例，却是按着不能毁坏的生命的大能。 17 因为有为他作证的说：
“你永远作祭司，
是照着麦基洗德的体系。”
18 一方面，从前的条例因为软弱，没有用处，就废弃了； 19 （因为律法从来没有使甚么得到完全，）另一方面，它却带来了更美的盼望，借着这盼望，我们就可以亲近 神。
20 此外，还有关于誓言的事。其他成为祭司的，并不是用誓言立的； 21 只有耶稣是用誓言立的，因为那立他的对他说：
“主已经起了誓，
决不改变，
你永远作祭司。”
22 耶稣既然是用誓言立的，就成了更美好的约的保证。 23 一方面，从前那些作祭司的，因为受死亡的限制，不能长久留任，所以人数众多。 24 另一方面，因为耶稣是永远长存的，就拥有他永不更改的祭司职位。 25 因此，那些靠着他进到 神面前的人，他都能拯救到底；因为他长远活着，为他们代求。
26 这样的一位大祭司，对我们本是合适的。他是圣洁、没有邪恶、没有玷污、从罪人中分别出来、高过众天的。 27 他不必像那些大祭司，天天先为自己的罪献祭，然后为人民的罪献祭；因为他献上了自己，就把这事一次而永远的成全了。 28 律法所立的大祭司，都是软弱的人；可是在律法以后，用誓言所立的儿子，却是成为完全直到永远的。
Евреям 7
Священное Писание (Восточный Перевод)
Малик-Цедек выше Ибрахима и всех иудейских священнослужителей
7 Этот Малик-Цедек был царём Салима и священнослужителем Бога Высочайшего. Он встретил Ибрахима, возвращавшегося со сражения после победы над царями, и благословил его. 2 Ибрахим отдал ему десятую часть всего, что у него было. Само его имя Малик-Цедек означает «царь праведности», а его титул «царь Салима» означает «царь, несущий мир». 3 Нигде не написано ни о его отце, ни о матери, ни о других его предках, ни о начале, ни о конце его жизни, но он, уподобленный (вечному) Сыну Всевышнего, остаётся священнослужителем вовеки.[a]
4 Смотрите, насколько он был велик! Даже наш праотец Ибрахим дал ему десятую часть захваченного на войне! 5 В Таурате имеется повеление, согласно которому члены рода Леви, ставшие священнослужителями, собирают с народа, то есть со своих братьев, десятую часть их дохода, хотя и они потомки Ибрахима.[b] 6 Но Малик-Цедек, будучи священнослужителем не из рода Леви, принял десятую часть добычи Ибрахима и благословил его, того, кто уже имел обещания от Всевышнего. 7 Благословляет всегда тот, кто стоит выше благословляемого (это правило не имеет исключений). 8 Десятую часть доходов принимают обычно смертные люди, но о Малик-Цедеке засвидетельствовано, что он жив. 9 В каком-то смысле и сам Леви, получающий десятины, через Ибрахима дал десятую часть доходов Малик-Цедеку, 10 потому что, когда Малик-Цедек встретил Ибрахима, Леви, ещё не рождённый, был в чреслах[c] Ибрахима.
Малик-Цедек – прообраз Исы Масиха
11 Если бы цель Всевышнего достигалась через священство левитов (а оно было существенной частью Закона, который был дан народу), то разве была бы нужда в другом священнослужителе – подобном Малик-Цедеку, а не подобном Харуну? 12 Когда происходит перемена священства, одновременно должна произойти и перемена Закона. 13 Тот же, о Ком мы сейчас говорим, принадлежал к роду, из которого никто и никогда не служил у жертвенника. 14 Ведь известно, что наш Повелитель был из рода Иуды, а в Законе Мусы ничего не сказано о священнослужителях из этого рода. 15 Нам становится ещё яснее, что Закон изменился, когда появляется другой священнослужитель – по подобию Малик-Цедека. 16 Он стал священнослужителем не по повелению Таурата, которое требовало принадлежности к определённому роду, а по силе, которая заложена в вечной жизни. 17 О Нём сказано:
«Ты – священнослужитель навеки,
подобный Малик-Цедеку»[d].
18 Прежнее повеление отменено, потому что оно оказалось слабым и бесполезным 19 (Закон вообще ничего не сделал совершенным), и даётся надежда на нечто лучшее, благодаря которой мы приближаемся к Всевышнему.
20 Примечательно, что это подтверждено клятвой Всевышнего. Другие священнослужители получали своё служение без всякой клятвы, 21 но Масих стал священнослужителем по клятве Того, Кто сказал Ему:
«Поклялся Вечный[e] и не откажется:
Ты – священнослужитель навеки».
22 Таким образом, Иса стал поручителем священного соглашения, которое гораздо лучше прежнего. 23 Тех священнослужителей было много, одни умирали, и на смену им приходили другие, 24 а Иса жив вечно, и Его священство тоже вечно. 25 Поэтому Он в силах полностью[f] спасать тех, кто благодаря Ему приходит к Всевышнему. Он всегда жив и всегда ходатайствует за них.
26 Именно такой Верховный Священнослужитель и был нам необходим: святой, непорочный, чистый, не подверженный влиянию грешников и находящийся превыше небес. 27 Ему нет необходимости приносить жертвы каждый день, как это делают другие верховные священнослужители, принося вначале жертвы за свои грехи, а потом за грехи народа. Он сделал это за всех раз и навсегда, когда отдал в жертву Самого Себя. 28 По Закону верховными священнослужителями назначаются обыкновенные слабые люди, а согласно клятве, данной уже после Закона, был назначен Сын, полностью и навеки приготовленный к этому.

Hebrews 7
King James Version
7 For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him;
2 To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace;
3 Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.
4 Now consider how great this man was, unto whom even the patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils.
5 And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham:
6 But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.
7 And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better.
8 And here men that die receive tithes; but there he receiveth them, of whom it is witnessed that he liveth.
9 And as I may so say, Levi also, who receiveth tithes, payed tithes in Abraham.
10 For he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedec met him.
11 If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?
12 For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.
13 For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar.
14 For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.
15 And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest,
16 Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life.
17 For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
18 For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof.
19 For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God.
20 And inasmuch as not without an oath he was made priest:
21 (For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath by him that said unto him, The Lord sware and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec:)
22 By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.
23 And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:
24 But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.
25 Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.
26 For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
27 Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself.
28 For the law maketh men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for evermore.
Hebrews 7
New King James Version
The King of Righteousness(A)
7 For this (B)Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of the Most High God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him, 2 to whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all, first being translated “king of righteousness,” and then also king of Salem, meaning “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 the patriarch Abraham gave a tenth of the [a]spoils. 5 And indeed (C)those who are of the sons of Levi, who receive the priesthood, have a commandment to receive tithes from the people according to the law, that is, from their brethren, though they have come from the loins of Abraham; 6 but he whose genealogy is not derived from them received tithes from Abraham (D)and blessed (E)him who had the promises. 7 Now beyond all contradiction the lesser is blessed by the better. 8 Here mortal men receive tithes, but there he receives them, (F)of whom it is witnessed that he lives. 9 Even Levi, who receives tithes, paid tithes through Abraham, so to speak, 10 for he was still in the loins of his father when Melchizedek met him.
Need for a New Priesthood(G)
11 (H)Therefore, if perfection were through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need was there that another priest should rise according to the order of Melchizedek, and not be called according to the order of Aaron? 12 For the priesthood being changed, of necessity there is also a change of the law. 13 For He of whom these things are spoken belongs to another tribe, from which no man has [b]officiated at the altar.
14 For it is evident that (I)our Lord arose from (J)Judah, of which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning [c]priesthood. 15 And it is yet far more evident if, in the likeness of Melchizedek, there arises another priest 16 who has come, not according to the law of a fleshly commandment, but according to the power of an endless life. 17 For [d]He testifies:
(K)“You are a priest forever
According to the order of Melchizedek.”
18 For on the one hand there is an annulling of the former commandment because of (L)its weakness and unprofitableness, 19 for (M)the law made nothing [e]perfect; on the other hand, there is the bringing in of (N)a better hope, through which (O)we draw near to God.
Greatness of the New Priest
20 And inasmuch as He was not made priest without an oath 21 (for they have become priests without an oath, but He with an oath by Him who said to Him:
(P)“The Lord has sworn
And will not relent,
‘You are a priest [f]forever
According to the order of Melchizedek’ ”),
22 by so much more Jesus has become a [g]surety of a (Q)better covenant.
23 Also there were many priests, because they were prevented by death from continuing. 24 But He, because He continues forever, has an unchangeable priesthood. 25 Therefore He is also (R)able to save [h]to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives (S)to make intercession for them.
26 For such a High Priest was fitting for us, (T)who is holy, [i]harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, (U)and has become higher than the heavens; 27 who does not need daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His (V)own sins and then for the people’s, for this He did once for all when He offered up Himself. 28 For the law appoints as high priests men who have weakness, but the word of the oath, which came after the law, appoints the Son who has been perfected forever.

Hebrews 7
Worldwide English (New Testament)
7 Melchizedek was king of the city of Salem. He was a priest of God who is the greatest of all. Melchizedek met Abraham when Abraham came back from killing some bad kings. And Melchizedek blessed him.
2 Abraham divided all that he took away from the kings into ten parts. He gave Melchizedek one part. First, the name Melchizedek means the king who is true and right with God. Then he was king of Salem. That means king of peace.
3 He has no father or mother. The names of the family from which he comes are not written down. It is not written down that he was born or that he died. But, like the Son of God, he stays on being a priest for ever.
4 Just think how great he was! Even Abraham, the father of our people, gave him a tenth, one part out of ten, of all he brought back.
5 The sons of Levi, who are priests, have the right by law to take a tenth of what the people have. These people are their own brothers. They also are Abraham's children.
6 But Melchizedek was not from Levi's family. Yet he took a tenth of what Abraham had. And he blessed Abraham, to whom God made the promise.
7 Everyone knows this is true. The person who is blessed is not so great as the person who blesses him.
8 Here, priests take their tenth, but they are people who will die one day. But Melchizedek, who took his tenth, never dies. The holy writings say it is so.
9 And we say that Levi, the priest who takes the tenth from the people, gave his tenth through Abraham.
10 He was not yet born when Melchizedek met Abraham.
11 It was while the sons of Levi were priests that the law was made for the people. If those priests were good enough, why would another priest need to come who was like Melchizedek? Why would he not be like Aaron?
12 If the kind of priest is changed, then the law must be changed also.
13 The one we are talking about belonged to another tribe. No man from his tribe ever made sacrifices in God's house.
14 Everyone knows that our Lord Jesus came from the tribe of Judah. And Moses never said anything about priests coming from that tribe.
15 You can understand it even better when another priest comes who is like Melchizedek.
16 He was not made a priest by law. The law said that the priest must come from a certain tribe. But he was made a priest because he has power to live for ever.
17 This is what the holy writings say about him, `You are a priest for ever, like Melchizedek.'
18 The old law given to Moses by God was put away. It was weak and no good.
19 The law did not make anything right. But something better has been brought to us. It is God's promise. And by that promise we come near to God.
20 Also Christ was not made a priest without God's strong promise. The others were made priests without God's strong promise.
21 But this man was made priest by God's strong promise. God said to him, `The Lord has made a strong promise, and he will not change it. "You are a priest for ever." '
22 Also because of this, Jesus makes a better agreement with God for people.
23 The other priests were many, because they died and could not go on with their work.
24 But because Jesus lives forever, he is a priest for ever and no one takes his place.
25 Because of that, he is able to save people for ever, if they come to God by him. He lives for ever to talk to God for them.
26 We needed such a high priest as he is. He is holy. He is good. He has never done any wrong. He has been taken away from among bad people, and taken up higher than the sky.
27 He does not need to make sacrifices every day. The other high priests make sacrifices every day, first for the wrong things they have done, and then for the people. He did it once when he offered himself as the sacrifice.
28 The law makes men high priests, and they are weak. But the word of God's promise came after the law. It makes his Son high priest for ever, and he is all right.
