Hebrews - Chapter: 7


7:1	For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him;
7:2	To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace;
7:3	Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.
7:4	Now consider how great this man was, unto whom even the patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils.
7:5	And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham:
7:6	But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.
7:7	And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better.
7:8	And here men that die receive tithes; but there he receiveth them, of whom it is witnessed that he liveth.
7:9	And as I may so say, Levi also, who receiveth tithes, payed tithes in Abraham.
7:10	For he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedec met him.
7:11	If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?
7:12	For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.
7:13	For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar.
7:14	For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.
7:15	And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest,
7:16	Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life.
7:17	For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
7:18	For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof.
7:19	For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God.
7:20	And inasmuch as not without an oath he was made priest:
7:21	(For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath by him that said unto him, The Lord sware and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec:)
7:22	By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.
7:23	And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:
7:24	But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.
7:25	Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.
7:26	For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
7:27	Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself.
7:28	For the law maketh men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for evermore.


7:1	For this Melchi-sedec was King of Salem, the Priest of the most high God, who met Abraham, as he returned from the slaughter of the Kings, and blessed him:
7:2	To whom also Abraham gaue the tithe of all things: who first is by interpretation King of righteousnes: after that, he is also King of Salem, that is, King of peace,
7:3	Without father, without mother, without kinred, and hath neither beginning of his dayes, neither ende of life: but is likened vnto the Sonne of God, and continueth a Priest for euer.
7:4	Nowe consider how great this man was, vnto whome euen the Patriarke Abraham gaue the tithe of the spoyles.
7:5	For verely they which are the childre of Leui, which receiue the office of the Priesthode, haue a commandement to take, according to the Law, tithes of the people (that is, of their bethren) though they came out of ye loynes of Abraham.
7:6	But he whose kindred is not couted among them, receiued tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.
7:7	And without all contradiction the lesse is blessed of the greater.
7:8	And here men that die, receiue tithes: but there he receiueth them, of whome it is witnessed, that he liueth.
7:9	And to say as the thing is, Leui also which receiueth tithes, payed tithes in Abraham.
7:10	For hee was yet in the loynes of his father Abraham, when Melchi-sedec met him.
7:11	If therefore perfection had bene by the Priesthoode of the Leuites (for vnder it the Lawe was established to the people) what needed it furthermore, that another Priest should rise after the order of Melchi-sedec, and not to be called after the order of Aaron?
7:12	For if the Priesthood be changed, then of necessitie must there be a change of the Lawe.
7:13	For hee of whome these things are spoken, perteineth vnto another tribe, whereof no man serued at the altar.
7:14	For it is euident, that our Lord sprung out of Iuda, concerning the which tribe Moses spake nothing, touching the Priesthood.
7:15	And it is yet a more euident thing, because that after the similitude of Melchi-sedec, there is risen vp another Priest,
7:16	Which is not made Priest after the Law of the carnal commandement, but after the power of the endlesse life.
7:17	For hee testifieth thus, Thou art a Priest for euer, after the order of Melchi-sedec.
7:18	For the commandement that went afore, is disanulled, because of the weakenes thereof, and vnprofitablenes.
7:19	For the Law made nothing perfite, but the bringing in of a better hope made perfite, whereby we drawe neere vnto God.
7:20	And for as much as it is not without an othe (for these are made Priestes without an othe:
7:21	But this is made with an othe by him that said vnto him, The Lord hath sworne, and will not repent, Thou art a Priest for euer, after the order of Melchi-sedec)
7:22	By so much is Iesus made a suretie of a better Testament.
7:23	And among them many were made Priests, because they were not suffered to endure, by the reason of death.
7:24	But this man, because hee endureth euer, hath a Priesthood, which cannot passe from one to another.
7:25	Wherefore, hee is able also perfectly to saue them that come vnto God by him, seeing he euer liueth, to make intercession for them.
7:26	For such an hie Priest it became vs to haue, which is holy, harmelesse, vndefiled, separate from sinners, and made hier then the heauens:
7:27	Which needeth not daily as those hie Priests to offer vp sacrifice, first for his owne sinnes, and then for the peoples: for that did he once, when he offered vp himselfe.
7:28	For the Law maketh men hie Priestes, which haue infirmitie: but the word of the othe that was since the Lawe, maketh the Sonne, who is consecrated for euermore.


7:1	This Melchisedech kynge of Salem (which beinge prest of ye most hye god met Abraham as he returned agayne from the slaughter of the kynges and blessed him:
7:2	to whom also Abraham gave tythes of all thynges) fyrst is by interpretacion kynge of rightewesnes: after yt he is kynge of Sale yt is to saye kynge of peace
7:3	with out father wt out mother with out kynne and hath nether begynnynge of his tyme nether yet ende of his lyfe: but is lykened vnto the sonne of god and cotinueth a preste for ever.
7:4	Consyder what a man this was vnto who the patriarke Abraham gave tythes of the spoyles.
7:5	And verely those children of levy which receave the office of the prestes have a commaundement to take a cordyng to the lawe tythes of the people that is to saye of their brethren yee though they spronge out of the loynes of Abraham.
7:6	But he whose kynred is not counted amonge them receaved tythes of Abraham and blessed him that had the promyses.
7:7	And no man denyeth but that which is lesse receaveth blessinge of yt which is greater.
7:8	And here men that dye receave tythes. But there he receaveth tythes of whom it is witnessed that he liveth.
7:9	And to saye the trueth Levy him silfe also which receaveth tythes payed tythes in Abraham.
7:10	For he was yet in the loynes of his father Abraham when Melchisech met him.
7:11	Yf now therfore perfeccion came by the presthod of the levites (for vnder that presthod the people recaved the lawe) what neded it furthermore that an other prest shuld ryse after the order of Melchisedech and not after the order of Aaron?
7:12	Now no dout yf the presthod be translated then of necessitie must the lawe be translated also.
7:13	For he of whom these thynges are spoken pertayneth vnto another trybe of which never man served at the aultre.
7:14	For it is evidet that oure lorde spronge of the trybe of Iuda of which trybe spake Moses nothynge concernynge presthod.
7:15	And it is yet a more evydent thinge yf after the similitude of Melchisedech ther aryse a nother prest
7:16	which is not made after the lawe of the carnall commaundmet: but after the power of the endlesse lyfe
7:17	(For he testifieth: Thou arte a prest forever after the order of Melchysedech)
7:18	Then the commaundmet that went a fore is disanulled because of hir weaknes and vnproffitablenes.
7:19	For the lawe made nothynge parfecte: but was an introduccion of a better hope by which hope we drawe nye vnto god.
7:20	And for this cause it is a better hope that it was not promysed with out an othe.
7:21	Those prestes were made wt out an oth: but this prest with an oth by him that saide vnto him The lorde sware and will not repent: Thou arte a prest for ever after the order of Melchisedech.
7:22	And for that cause was Iesus a stablyssher of a better testament.
7:23	And amonge them many were made prestes because they were not suffred to endure by the reason of deeth.
7:24	But this man because he endureth ever hath an everlastinge presthod.
7:25	Wherfore he is able also ever to save them that come vnto god by him seynge he ever lyveth to make intercession for vs.
7:26	Soche an hye prest it became vs to have which is wholy harmlesse vndefyled separat from synners and made hyar then heven.
7:27	Which nedeth not dayly (as yonder hie prestes) to offer vp sacrifice fyrst for his awne synnes and then for the peoples synnes. For that did he at once for all when he offered vp him silfe.
7:28	For the lawe maketh men prestes which have infirmitie: but the worde of the othe that came fence ye lawe maketh the sonne prest which is parfecte for ever more.
