Hebrews 7:21-26
English Standard Version
21 but this one was made a priest with an oath by the one who said to him:
(A)“The Lord has sworn
and will not change his mind,
‘You are a priest forever.’”
22 This makes Jesus the guarantor of (B)a better covenant.
23 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 (C)forever. 25 Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost[a] (D)those who draw near to God (E)through him, since he always lives (F)to make intercession for them.
26 For it was indeed fitting that we should have such a high priest, (G)holy, innocent, unstained, (H)separated from sinners, and (I)exalted above the heavens.

Jesus the Great High Priest
14 Since then we have (A)a great high priest (B)who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, (C)let us hold fast our confession. 15 For we do not have a high priest (D)who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been (E)tempted as we are, (F)yet without sin. 16 (G)Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

19 Pilate (A)also wrote an inscription and put it on the cross. It read, “Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews.” 20 Many of the Jews read this inscription, for (B)the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and it was written in Aramaic, in Latin, and in Greek. 21 So the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, “Do not write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but rather, ‘This man said, I am King of the Jews.’” 22 Pilate answered, (C)“What I have written I have written.”

6 The disciples went and did as Jesus had directed them. 7 They brought the donkey and the colt and put on them their cloaks, and he sat on them. 8 Most of the crowd (C)spread their cloaks on the road, and others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. 9 And the crowds that went before him and that followed him were shouting, (D)“Hosanna to (E)the Son of David! (F)Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!
