Hebrews 7:8-25
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
8 In the one case, tithes are received by those who are mortal; in the other, by one of whom it is testified that he lives.(A) 9 One might even say that Levi himself, who receives tithes, paid tithes through Abraham, 10 for he was still in the loins of his ancestor when Melchizedek met him.
Another Priest, Like Melchizedek
11 Now if perfection had been attainable through the Levitical priesthood—for the people received the law under this priesthood—what further need would there have been to speak of another priest arising according to the order of Melchizedek rather than one according to the order of Aaron?(B) 12 For when there is a change in the priesthood, there is necessarily a change in the law as well. 13 Now the one of whom these things are spoken belonged to another tribe, from which no one has ever served at the altar. 14 For it is evident that our Lord was descended from Judah, and in connection with that tribe Moses said nothing about priests.(C)
15 It is even more obvious when another priest arises, resembling Melchizedek, 16 one who has become a priest, not through a legal requirement concerning physical descent but through the power of an indestructible life.(D) 17 For it is attested of him,
“You are a priest forever,
according to the order of Melchizedek.”(E)
18 There is, on the one hand, the abrogation of an earlier commandment because it was weak and ineffectual(F) 19 (for the law made nothing perfect); there is, on the other hand, the introduction of a better hope through which we approach God.(G)
20 This was confirmed with an oath, for others have become priests without an oath, 21 but this one became a priest with an oath because of the one who said to him,
22 accordingly Jesus has also become the guarantor of a better covenant.(I)
23 Furthermore, the former priests were many in number because they were prevented by death from continuing in office, 24 but he holds his priesthood permanently because he continues forever. 25 Consequently, he is able for all time to save[b] those who approach God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.(J)

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)
