Hebrews 7

1 this/he/she/it for the/this/who Melchizedek king Salem priest the/this/who God the/this/who Highest (the/this/who *N(k)O*) to meet Abraham to return away from the/this/who slaughter the/this/who king and to praise/bless it/s/he

This Melchizedek was king of Salem and priest of God Most High. He met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him,

2 which and tenth away from all to divide Abraham first on the other hand to interpret king righteousness then then and king Salem which to be king peace

and Abraham apportioned to him a tenth of everything. First, his name means “king of righteousness.” Then also, “king of Salem” means “king of peace.”

3 fatherless motherless without genealogy neither beginning day neither life goal/tax to have/be to make like then the/this/who son the/this/who God to stay priest toward the/this/who perpetual

Without father or mother or genealogy, without beginning of days or end of life, like the Son of God, he remains a priest for all time.

4 to see/experience then how great this/he/she/it which and tenth Abraham to give out from the/this/who fine spoils the/this/who patriarch

Consider how great Melchizedek was: Even the patriarch Abraham gave him a tenth of the plunder.

5 and the/this/who on the other hand out from the/this/who son Levi the/this/who priesthood to take commandment to have/be to tithe the/this/who a people according to the/this/who law this/he/she/it to be the/this/who brother it/s/he although to go out out from the/this/who loins Abraham

Now the law commands the sons of Levi who become priests to collect a tenth from the people—that is, from their brothers—though they too are descended from Abraham.

6 the/this/who then not to trace genealogy out from it/s/he to tithe (the/this/who *k*) Abraham and the/this/who to have/be the/this/who promise to praise/bless

But Melchizedek, who did not trace his descent from Levi, collected a tenth from Abraham and blessed him who had the promises.

7 without then all dispute the/this/who lesser by/under: by the/this/who greater to praise/bless

And indisputably, the lesser is blessed by the greater.

8 and here on the other hand tenth to die a human to take there then to testify that/since: that to live

In the case of the Levites, mortal men collect the tenth; but in the case of Melchizedek, it is affirmed that he lives on.

9 and as/when a word to say through/because of Abraham and Levi the/this/who tenth to take to tithe

And so to speak, Levi, who collects the tenth, paid the tenth through Abraham.

10 still for in/on/among the/this/who loins the/this/who father to be when to meet it/s/he (the/this/who *k*) Melchizedek

For when Melchizedek met Abraham, Levi was still in the loin of his ancestor.

11 if on the other hand therefore/then perfection through/because of the/this/who Levitical priesthood to be the/this/who a people for upon/to/against (it/s/he to give laws *N(k)O*) which? still need according to the/this/who order Melchizedek other to arise priest and no according to the/this/who order Aaron to say: call

Now if perfection could have been attained through the Levitical priesthood (for on this basis the people received the law), why was there still need for another priest to appear—one in the order of Melchizedek and not in the order of Aaron?

12 to transport for the/this/who priesthood out from necessity and law removal/change to be

For when the priesthood is changed, the law must be changed as well.

13 upon/to/against which for to say this/he/she/it tribe other to share away from which none to watch out the/this/who altar

He of whom these things are said belonged to a different tribe, from which no one has ever served at the altar.

14 obvious for that/since: that out from Judah to rise the/this/who lord: God me toward which tribe about (priest *N(K)O*) none Moses to speak

For it is clear that our Lord descended from Judah, a tribe as to which Moses said nothing about priests.

15 and more excessive still evident to be if according to the/this/who likeness Melchizedek to arise priest other

And this point is even more clear if another priest like Melchizedek appears,

16 which no according to law commandment (fleshly *N(k)O*) to be but according to power life indestructible

one who has become a priest not by a law of succession, but by the power of an indestructible life.

17 (to testify *N(k)O*) for that/since: that you priest toward the/this/who an age: eternity according to the/this/who order Melchizedek (aiōn g165)

For it is testified: “You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.” (aiōn g165)

18 nullification on the other hand for to be to go/bring before commandment through/because of the/this/who it/s/he weak and useless

So the former commandment is set aside because it was weak and useless

19 none for to perfect the/this/who law introduction then greater hope through/because of which to come near the/this/who God

(for the law made nothing perfect), and a better hope is introduced, by which we draw near to God.

20 and according to just as/how much no without oath

And none of this happened without an oath. For others became priests without an oath,

21 the/this/who on the other hand for without oath to be priest to be the/this/who then with/after oath through/because of the/this/who to say to/with it/s/he to swear lord: God and no to repent you priest toward the/this/who an age: eternity (according to the/this/who order Melchizedek *K*) (aiōn g165)

but Jesus became a priest with an oath by the One who said to Him: “The Lord has sworn and will not change His mind: ‘You are a priest forever.’” (aiōn g165)

22 according to so great (and *no*) greater covenant to be guarantor Jesus

Because of this oath, Jesus has become the guarantee of a better covenant.

23 and the/this/who on the other hand greater to be to be priest through/because of the/this/who death to prevent to continue

Now there have been many other priests, since death prevented them from continuing in office.

24 the/this/who then through/because of the/this/who to stay it/s/he toward the/this/who an age: eternity permanent to have/be the/this/who priesthood (aiōn g165)

But because Jesus lives forever, He has a permanent priesthood. (aiōn g165)

25 whence and to save toward the/this/who completely be able the/this/who to come near/agree through/because of it/s/he the/this/who God always to live toward the/this/who to call on above/for it/s/he

Therefore He is able to save completely those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to intercede for them.

26 such as this for me (and *no*) be proper high-priest sacred innocent pure to separate/leave away from the/this/who sinful and high the/this/who heaven to be

Such a high priest truly befits us—One who is holy, innocent, undefiled, set apart from sinners, and exalted above the heavens.

27 which no to have/be according to day necessity just as the/this/who high-priest previously above/for the/this/who one's own/private sin sacrifice to carry up then the/this/who the/this/who a people this/he/she/it for to do/make: do once/at once themself to carry up

Unlike the other high priests, He does not need to offer daily sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the sins of the people; He sacrificed for sin once for all when He offered up Himself.

28 the/this/who law for a human to appoint/conduct high-priest to have/be weakness: weak the/this/who word then the/this/who oath the/this/who with/after the/this/who law son toward the/this/who an age: eternity to perfect (aiōn g165)

For the law appoints as high priests men who are weak; but the oath, which came after the law, appointed the Son, who has been made perfect forever. (aiōn g165)
