with no father or mother, and no record of ancestry: having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made a type of the Son of God this man Melchizedek remains a priest for ever.

without father, without mother, without genealogy; having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but assimilated to the Son of God, abides a priest continually.

Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like to the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.

Hebrews 7:4

Now think how great this priest-king must have been to whom Abraham the patriarch gave a tenth part of the best of the spoil.

Now consider how great this [personage] was, to whom [even] the patriarch Abraham gave a tenth out of the spoils.

Now consider how great this man was, to whom even the patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils.

Hebrews 7:5

And those of the descendants of Levi who receive the priesthood are authorized by the Law to take tithes from the people, that is, from their brethren, though these have sprung from Abraham.

And they indeed from among the sons of Levi, who receive the priesthood, have commandment to take tithes from the people according to the law, that is from their brethren, though these are come out of the loins of Abraham:

And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes from the people according to the law, that is, from their brethren, though they come from the loins of Abraham:

Hebrews 7:6

But, in this instance, one who does not trace his origin from them takes tithes from Abraham, and pronounces a blessing on him to whom the promises belong.

but he who has no genealogy from them has tithed Abraham, and blessed him who had the promises.

But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes from Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.

And beyond all dispute it is always the inferior who is blessed by the superior.

But beyond all gainsaying, the inferior is blessed by the better.

And without all contradiction the less is blessed by the better.

Hebrews 7:8

Moreover here frail mortal men receive tithes: there one receives them about whom there is evidence that he is alive.

And here dying men receive tithes; but there [one] of whom the witness is that he lives;

And here men that die receive tithes; but there he receiveth them, of whom it is testified that he liveth.

Hebrews 7:9

And Levi too if I may so speak pays tithes through Abraham:

and, so to speak, through Abraham, Levi also, who received tithes, has been made to pay tithes.

for Levi was yet in the loins of his forefather when Melchizedek met Abraham.

For he was yet in the loins of his father when Melchisedec met him.

Hebrews 7:11

Now if the crowning blessing was attainable by means of the Levitical priesthood for as resting on this foundation the people received the Law, to which they are still subject what further need was there for a Priest of a different kind to be raised up belonging to the order of Melchizedek instead of being said to belong to the order of Aaron?

If indeed then perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, for the people had their law given to them in connexion with *it*, what need [was there] still that a different priest should arise according to the order of Melchisedec, and not be named after the order of Aaron?

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?

Hebrews 7:12

For when the priesthood changes, a change of Law also of necessity takes place.

For, the priesthood being changed, there takes place of necessity a change of law also.

For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.

For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar.

Hebrews 7:14

For it is undeniable that our Lord sprang from Judah, a tribe of which Moses said nothing in connection with priests.

For it is clear that our Lord has sprung out of Juda, as to which tribe Moses spake nothing as to priests.

For it is evident that our Lord sprang from Judah; of which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priesthood.

Hebrews 7:15

And this is still more abundantly clear when we read that it is as belonging to the order of Melchizedek that a priest of a different kind is to arise,

And it is yet more abundantly evident, since a different priest arises according to the similitude of Melchisedec,

And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest,

Hebrews 7:16

and hold His office not in obedience to any temporary Law, but by virtue of an indestructible Life.

Hebrews 7:19

for the Law brought no perfect blessing but on the other hand we have the bringing in of a new and better hope by means of which we draw near to God.

(for the law perfected nothing,) and the introduction of a better hope by which we draw nigh to God.

For the law made nothing perfect, but the introduction of a better hope did; by which we draw nigh to God.

Hebrews 7:20

And since it was not without an oath being taken

And by how much [it was] not without the swearing of an oath;

And inasmuch as not without an oath he was made priest:

Hebrews 7:21

for these men hold office without any oath having been taken, but He holds it attested by an oath from Him who said to Him, "The Lord has sworn and will not recall His words, Thou art a Priest for ever"

(for they are become priests without the swearing of an oath, but he with the swearing of an oath, by him who said, as to him, The Lord has sworn, and will not repent [of it], *Thou* [art] priest for ever [according to the order of Melchisedec];)

Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come to God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

Hebrews 7:26

Moreover we needed just such a High Priest as this holy, guileless, undefiled, far removed from sinful men and exalted above the heavens;

For such a high priest became us, holy, harmless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and become higher than the heavens:

For such a high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;

Hebrews 7:27

who, unlike other High Priests, is not under the necessity of offering up sacrifices day after day, first for His own sins, and afterwards for those of the people; for this latter thing He did once for all when He offered up Himself.

who has not day by day need, as the high priests, first to offer up sacrifices for his own sins, then [for] those of the people; for this he did once for all [in] having offered up himself.

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.

For the law maketh men high priests who have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was after the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for evermore.
