2 ♥ 📝 to whom^G3739 also^G2532 Abraham^G11 divided^G3307 a tenth part^G1181 of^G575 all^G3956 (being first,^{G4412 G3303} by interpretation,^G2059 King^G935 of righteousness,^G1343 and^G1161 then^G1899 also^G2532 King^G935 of Salem,^G4532 which is^G3603 King^G935 of peace;^G1515

3 ♥ 📝 without father,^G540 without mother,^G282 without genealogy,^G35 having^G2192 neither^G3383 beginning^G746 of days^G2250 nor^G3383 end^G5056 of life,^G2222 but^G1161 made like^G871 unto the Son^G5207 of God),^G2316 abideth^G3306 a priest^{G2409 G1519} continually.^G1336

4 ♥ 📝 Now^G1161 consider^G2334 how great^G4080 this man^G3778 was, unto whom^{G3739 G2532} Abraham,^G11 the patriarch,^G3966 gave^G1325 a tenth^G1181 out of^G1537 the chief spoils.^G2334

5 ♥ 📝 And^G2532 they indeed^{G3303 G2983} of^G1537 the sons^G5207 of Levi^G3017 that receive^G2983 the priest's office^G2405 have^G2192 commandment^G1785 to take tithes of^G586 the people^G2992 according to^G2596 the law,^G3551 that^G5124 is,^G2076 of^G80 their^G846 brethren,^G80 though^G2539 these have come out^G1831 of^G1537 the loins^G3751 of Abraham:^G11

6 ♥ 📝 but^G1161 he whose genealogy is^G1075 not^G3361 counted^G1075 from^G1537 them^G846 hath taken tithes^G1183 of Abraham,^G11 and^G2532 hath blessed^G2127 him that hath^G2192 the promises.^G1860

7 ♥ 📝 But^G1161 without^G5565 any^G3956 dispute^G485 the less^G1640 is blessed^G2127 of^G5259 the better.^G2909

8 ♥ 📝 And^{G2532 G3303} here^G5602 men^G444 that die^G599 receive^G2983 tithes;^G1181 but^G1161 there^G1563 one,^G3140 of whom it is witnessed^G3140 that^G3754 he liveth.^G2198

9 ♥ 📝 And,^G2532 so^G5613 to say,^G2031 through^G1223 Abraham^G11 even^G2532 Levi,^G3017 who receiveth^G2983 tithes,^G1181 hath paid tithes;^G1183

10 ♥ 📝 for^G1063 he was^G2258 yet^G2089 in^G1722 the loins^G3751 of his father,^G3962 when^G3753 Melchizedek^G3198 met^G4876 him.^G846

11 ♥ 📝 Now if^G1487 there^G3767 was^G3303 perfection^{G5050 G2258} through^G1223 the Levitical^G3020 priesthood^G2420 (for^G1063 under^G1909 it^G846 hath the people^G2992 received the law),^G3549 what^G5101 further^G2089 need^G5532 [was there] that^G450 another^G2087 priest^G2409 should arise^G450 after^G2596 the order^G5010 of Melchizedek,^G3198 and^G2532 not^G3756 be reckoned^G3004 after^G2596 the order^G5010 of Aaron?^G2

12 ♥ 📝 For^G1063 the priesthood^G2420 being changed,^G3346 there is made^G1096 of^G1537 necessity^G318 a change^G3331 also^G2532 of the law.^G3551

13 ♥ 📝 For^G1063 he^G3348 of^G1909 whom^G3739 these things^G5023 are said^G3004 belongeth^G3348 to^G5443 another^G2087 tribe,^G5443 from^G575 which^G3739 no man^G3762 hath given attendance^G4337 at the altar.^G2379

14 ♥ 📝 For^G1063 it is evident^G4271 that^G3754 our^G2257 Lord^G2962 hath sprung^G393 out of^G1537 Judah;^G2448 as to^G1519 which^G3739 tribe^G5443 Moses^G3475 spake^G2980 nothing^G3762 concerning^G4012 priests.^G2420

15 ♥ 📝 And^G2532 [what we say] is^G2076 yet^G2089 more^G4054 abundantly evident,^G2612 if^G1487 after^G2596 the likeness^G3665 of Melchizedek^G3198 there ariseth^G450 another^G2087 priest,^G2409

16 ♥ 📝 who^G3739 hath been made,^G1096 not^G3756 after^G2596 the law^G3551 of a^G1785 carnal^G4559 commandment,^G1785 but^G235 after^G2596 the power^G1411 of an^G2222 endless^G179 life:^G2222

17 ♥ 📝 for^G1063 it is witnessed^G3754 [of him], Thou^G4771 art a priest^G2409 for^G1519 ever^G165 After^G2596 the order^G5010 of Melchizedek.^G3198

18 ♥ 📝 For^G1063 there is^{G1096 G3303} a disannulling^G115 of a foregoing^G4254 commandment^G1785 because^G1223 of its^G846 weakness^G772 and^G2532 unprofitableness^G512

19 ♥ 📝 (for^G1063 the law^G3551 made^G5048 nothing^G3762 perfect),^G5048 and a^G1680 bringing in^G1898 thereupon of a^G1680 better^G2909 hope,^G1680 through^G1223 which^G3739 we draw nigh^G1448 unto God.^G2316

20 ♥ 📝 And^G2532 inasmuch^G2596 as^G3745 [it is] not^G3756 without^G5565 the taking of an oath^G3728

21 ♥ 📝 (for^{G1063 G3303} they indeed have been^G1526 made^G1096 priests^G2409 without^G5565 an oath;^G3728 but^G1161 he with^G3326 an oath^G3728 by^G1223 him^G846 that saith^G3004 of^G4314 him,^G846 The Lord^G2962 sware^G3660 and^G2532 will^G3338 not^G3756 repent^G3338 himself, Thou^G4771 art a priest^G2409 for^G1519 ever);^G165

22 ♥ 📝 by^G2596 so much^G5118 also hath^G1096 Jesus^G2424 become^G1096 the surety^G1450 of a^G1242 better^G2909 covenant.^G1242

23 ♥ 📝 And^G2532 they^G1526 indeed^G3303 have been^G1526 made^G1096 priests^G2409 many^G4119 in number, because^G1223 that by death^G2288 they are hindered^G2967 from continuing:^G3887

24 ♥ 📝 but^{G1161 G3588} he,^G846 because^G1223 he^G846 abideth^G3306 for^G1519 ever,^G165 hath^G2192 his priesthood^G2420 unchangeable.^G531

25 ♥ 📝 Wherefore^G3606 also^G2532 he is able^G1410 to save^G4982 to^G1519 the uttermost^G3838 them^G3838 that draw near^G4334 unto God^G2316 through^G1223 him,^G846 seeing he^G2198 ever^G3842 liveth^G2198 to^G1519 make intercession^G1793 for^G5228 them.^G846

26 ♥ 📝 For^G1063 such^G5108 a high priest^G749 became^G4241 us,^G2254 holy,^G3741 guileless,^G172 undefiled,^G283 separated^G5563 from^G575 sinners,^G268 and^G2532 made^G1096 higher^G5308 than the heavens;^G3772

27 ♥ 📝 who^{G3739 G2192} needeth^G318 not^{G3756 G2596} daily,^G2250 like^G5618 those high priests,^G749 to offer up^G399 sacrifices,^G2378 first^G4386 for^G5228 his own^G2398 sins,^G266 and then^G1899 for the [sins] of the people:^G2992 for^G1063 this^G5124 he did^G4160 once^G2178 for all, when he offered up^G399 himself.^G1438

28 ♥ 📝 For^G1063 the law^G3551 appointeth^G2525 men^G444 high priests,^G749 having^G2192 infirmity;^G769 but^G1161 the word^G3056 of the oath,^G3728 which was^G3588 after^G3326 the law,^G3551 [appointeth] a Son,^G5207 perfected^G5048 for^G1519 evermore.^G165
