Hebrews 7:8-25
New King James Version
Hebrews 7:8-25
New King James Version
8 Here mortal men receive tithes, but there he receives them, (A)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(B)
11 (C)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 [a]officiated at the altar.
14 For it is evident that (D)our Lord arose from (E)Judah, of which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning [b]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 [c]He testifies:
(F)“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 (G)its weakness and unprofitableness, 19 for (H)the law made nothing [d]perfect; on the other hand, there is the bringing in of (I)a better hope, through which (J)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:
(K)“The Lord has sworn
And will not relent,
‘You are a priest [e]forever
According to the order of Melchizedek’ ”),
22 by so much more Jesus has become a [f]surety of a (L)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 (M)able to save [g]to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives (N)to make intercession for them.

Hebrews 7:8-25
New International Version
Hebrews 7:8-25
New International Version
8 In the one case, the tenth is collected by people who die; but in the other case, by him who is declared to be living.(A) 9 One might even say that Levi, who collects the tenth, paid the tenth through Abraham, 10 because when Melchizedek met Abraham, Levi was still in the body of his ancestor.
Jesus Like Melchizedek
11 If perfection could have been attained through the Levitical priesthood—and indeed the law given to the people(B) established that priesthood—why was there still need for another priest to come,(C) one in the order of Melchizedek,(D) not in the order of Aaron? 12 For when the priesthood is changed, the law must be changed also. 13 He of whom these things are said belonged to a different tribe,(E) and no one from that tribe has ever served at the altar.(F) 14 For it is clear that our Lord descended from Judah,(G) and in regard to that tribe Moses said nothing about priests. 15 And what we have said is even more clear if another priest like Melchizedek appears, 16 one who has become a priest not on the basis of a regulation as to his ancestry but on the basis of the power of an indestructible life. 17 For it is declared:
18 The former regulation is set aside because it was weak and useless(I) 19 (for the law made nothing perfect),(J) and a better hope(K) is introduced, by which we draw near to God.(L)
20 And it was not without an oath! Others became priests without any oath, 21 but he became a priest with an oath when God said to him:
22 Because of this oath, Jesus has become the guarantor of a better covenant.(O)
23 Now there have been many of those priests, since death prevented them from continuing in office; 24 but because Jesus lives forever, he has a permanent priesthood.(P) 25 Therefore he is able to save(Q) completely[c] those who come to God(R) through him, because he always lives to intercede for them.(S)
