Hebrews 7
1 For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, cohen of God Most High, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him,
zAlamasya rAjA sarvvOparisthasyEzvarasya yAjakazca san yO nRpatInAM mAraNAt pratyAgatam ibrAhImaM sAkSAtkRtyAziSaM gaditavAn,
2 to whom also Abraham divided "a tenth part of everything" (being first, by interpretation, king of righteousness, and then also king of Salem, which is king of peace;
yasmai cEbrAhIm sarvvadravyANAM dazamAMzaM dattavAn sa malkISEdak svanAmnO'rthEna prathamatO dharmmarAjaH pazcAt zAlamasya rAjArthataH zAntirAjO bhavati|
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 cohen continually.
aparaM tasya pitA mAtA vaMzasya nirNaya AyuSa ArambhO jIvanasya zESazcaitESAm abhAvO bhavati, itthaM sa Izvaraputrasya sadRzIkRtaH, sa tvanantakAlaM yAvad yAjakastiSThati|
4 Now consider how great this man was, to whom even Abraham, the patriarch, gave a tenth out of the most valuable plunder.
ataEvAsmAkaM pUrvvapuruSa ibrAhIm yasmai luThitadravyANAM dazamAMzaM dattavAn sa kIdRk mahAn tad AlOcayata|
5 They indeed of the sons of Levi who became cohanim have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the Law, that is, of their brothers, though these have come out of the body of Abraham,
yAjakatvaprAptA lEvEH santAnA vyavasthAnusArENa lOkEbhyO'rthata ibrAhImO jAtEbhyaH svIyabhrAtRbhyO dazamAMzagrahaNasyAdEzaM labdhavantaH|
6 but he whose genealogy is not counted from them has accepted tithes from Abraham, and has blessed him who has the promises.
kintvasau yadyapi tESAM vaMzAt nOtpannastathApIbrAhImO dazamAMzaM gRhItavAn pratijnjAnAm adhikAriNam AziSaM gaditavAMzca|
7 But without any dispute the lesser is blessed by the greater.
aparaM yaH zrEyAn sa kSudratarAyAziSaM dadAtItyatra kO'pi sandEhO nAsti|
8 Here people who die receive tithes, but there one receives tithes of whom it is testified that he lives.
aparam idAnIM yE dazamAMzaM gRhlanti tE mRtyOradhInA mAnavAH kintu tadAnIM yO gRhItavAn sa jIvatItipramANaprAptaH|
9 We can say that through Abraham even Levi, who receives tithes, has paid tithes,
aparaM dazamAMzagrAhI lEvirapIbrAhImdvArA dazamAMzaM dattavAn Etadapi kathayituM zakyatE|
10 for he was yet in the body of his father when Melchizedek met him.
yatO yadA malkISEdak tasya pitaraM sAkSAt kRtavAn tadAnIM sa lEviH pitururasyAsIt|
11 Now if there was perfection through the Levitical system of cohanim (for under it the people have received the law), what further need was there for another cohen to arise after the order of Melchizedek, and not be called after the order of Aaron?
aparaM yasya sambandhE lOkA vyavasthAM labdhavantastEna lEvIyayAjakavargENa yadi siddhiH samabhaviSyat tarhi hArONasya zrENyA madhyAd yAjakaM na nirUpyEzvarENa malkISEdakaH zrENyA madhyAd aparasyaikasya yAjakasyOtthApanaM kuta Avazyakam abhaviSyat?
12 For the system of cohanim being changed, there is of necessity a change made also in the law.
yatO yAjakavargasya vinimayEna sutarAM vyavasthAyA api vinimayO jAyatE|
13 For he of whom these things are said belongs to another tribe, from which no one has officiated at the altar.
aparanjca tad vAkyaM yasyOddEzyaM sO'parENa vaMzEna saMyuktA'sti tasya vaMzasya ca kO'pi kadApi vEdyAH karmma na kRtavAn|
14 For it is evident that our Lord has sprung out of Judah, about which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning cohanim.
vastutastu yaM vaMzamadhi mUsA yAjakatvasyaikAM kathAmapi na kathitavAn tasmin yihUdAvaMzE'smAkaM prabhu rjanma gRhItavAn iti suspaSTaM|
15 This is yet more abundantly evident, if after the likeness of Melchizedek there arises another cohen,
tasya spaSTataram aparaM pramANamidaM yat malkISEdakaH sAdRzyavatAparENa tAdRzEna yAjakEnOdEtavyaM,
16 who has been made, not after the law of a fleshly commandment, but after the power of an endless life:
yasya nirUpaNaM zarIrasambandhIyavidhiyuktayA vyavasthAyA na bhavati kintvakSayajIvanayuktayA zaktyA bhavati|
17 for it is testified, "You are a cohen forever, according to the order of Melchizedek." (aiōn g165)
yata Izvara idaM sAkSyaM dattavAn, yathA, "tvaM maklISEdakaH zrENyAM yAjakO'si sadAtanaH|" (aiōn g165)
18 For there is an annulling of a foregoing commandment because of its weakness and uselessness
anEnAgravarttinO vidhE durbbalatAyA niSphalatAyAzca hEtOrarthatO vyavasthayA kimapi siddhaM na jAtamitihEtOstasya lOpO bhavati|
19 (for the law made nothing perfect), and a bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.
yayA ca vayam Izvarasya nikaTavarttinO bhavAma EtAdRzI zrESThapratyAzA saMsthApyatE|
20 Inasmuch as he was not made cohen without the taking of an oath,
aparaM yIzuH zapathaM vinA na niyuktastasmAdapi sa zrESThaniyamasya madhyasthO jAtaH|
21 for they indeed have been made cohanim without an oath, but he with an oath by him that says of him, "The Lord swore and will not change his mind, 'You are a cohen forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.'" (aiōn g165)
yatastE zapathaM vinA yAjakA jAtAH kintvasau zapathEna jAtaH yataH sa idamuktaH, yathA,
22 Accordingly Yeshua has become the guarantor of a better covenant.
"paramEza idaM zEpE na ca tasmAnnivartsyatE| tvaM malkISEdakaH zrENyAM yAjakO'si sadAtanaH|" (aiōn g165)
23 Many, indeed, have been made cohanim, because they are hindered from continuing by death.
tE ca bahavO yAjakA abhavan yatastE mRtyunA nityasthAyitvAt nivAritAH,
kintvasAvanantakAlaM yAvat tiSThati tasmAt tasya yAjakatvaM na parivarttanIyaM| (aiōn g165)
25 Therefore he is also able to save completely those who draw near to God through him, seeing that he lives forever to make intercession for them.
tatO hEtO ryE mAnavAstEnEzvarasya sannidhiM gacchanti tAn sa zESaM yAvat paritrAtuM zaknOti yatastESAM kRtE prArthanAM karttuM sa satataM jIvati|
26 For such a cohen hagadol was indeed fitting for us: holy, guiltless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
aparam asmAkaM tAdRzamahAyAjakasya prayOjanamAsId yaH pavitrO 'hiMsakO niSkalagkaH pApibhyO bhinnaH svargAdapyuccIkRtazca syAt|
27 who does not need, like those cohanim gedolim, to offer up sacrifices daily, first for his own sins, and then for those of the people. For he did this once for all, when he offered up himself.
aparaM mahAyAjakAnAM yathA tathA tasya pratidinaM prathamaM svapApAnAM kRtE tataH paraM lOkAnAM pApAnAM kRtE balidAnasya prayOjanaM nAsti yata AtmabalidAnaM kRtvA tad EkakRtvastEna sampAditaM|
28 For the Law appoints men as cohanim gedolim who have weakness, but the word of the oath which came after the Law appoints a Son forever who has been perfected. (aiōn g165)
yatO vyavasthayA yE mahAyAjakA nirUpyantE tE daurbbalyayuktA mAnavAH kintu vyavasthAtaH paraM zapathayuktEna vAkyEna yO mahAyAjakO nirUpitaH sO 'nantakAlArthaM siddhaH putra Eva| (aiōn g165)
