KJV 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?

TR1550 ¹¹ εἰ μὲν οὖν τελείωσις διὰ τῆς λευιτικῆς ἱερωσύνης ἦν ὁ λαὸς γὰρ ἐπ᾽ αὐτῇ νενομοθέτητο τίς ἔτι χρεία κατὰ τὴν τάξιν μελχισέδεκ ἕτερον ἀνίστασθαι ἱερέα καὶ οὐ κατὰ τὴν τάξιν ἀαρὼν λέγεσθαι

KJV ¹² For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.

TR1550 ¹² μετατιθεμένης γὰρ τῆς ἱερωσύνης ἐξ ἀνάγκης καὶ νόμου μετάθεσις γίνεται

KJV ¹³ For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar.

TR1550 ¹³ ἐφ᾽ ὃν γὰρ λέγεται ταῦτα φυλῆς ἑτέρας μετέσχηκεν ἀφ᾽ ἡς οὐδεὶς προσέσχηκεν τῷ θυσιαστηρίῳ

KJV ¹⁴ For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.

TR1550 ¹⁴ πρόδηλον γὰρ ὅτι ἐξ ἰούδα ἀνατέταλκεν ὁ κύριος ἡμῶν εἰς ἣν φυλὴν οὐδὲν περὶ ἱερωσυνής μωσῆς ἐλάλησεν

KJV ¹⁵ And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest,

TR1550 ¹⁵ καὶ περισσότερον ἔτι κατάδηλόν ἐστιν εἰ κατὰ τὴν ὁμοιότητα μελχισέδεκ ἀνίσταται ἱερεὺς ἕτερος

KJV ¹⁶ Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life.

TR1550 ¹⁶ ὃς οὐ κατὰ νόμον ἐντολῆς σαρκίκης γέγονεν ἀλλὰ κατὰ δύναμιν ζωῆς ἀκαταλύτου

KJV ¹⁷ For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.

TR1550 ¹⁷ μαρτυρεῖ γὰρ ὅτι σὺ ἱερεὺς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα κατὰ τὴν τάξιν μελχισέδεκ

KJV ¹⁸ For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof.

TR1550 ¹⁸ ἀθέτησις μὲν γὰρ γίνεται προαγούσης ἐντολῆς διὰ τὸ αὐτῆς ἀσθενὲς καὶ ἀνωφελές

KJV ¹⁹ For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God.

TR1550 ¹⁹ οὐδὲν γὰρ ἐτελείωσεν ὁ νόμος ἐπεισαγωγὴ δὲ κρείττονος ἐλπίδος δι᾽ ἡς ἐγγίζομεν τῷ θεῷ

KJV ²⁰ And inasmuch as not without an oath he was made priest:

TR1550 ²⁰ καὶ καθ᾽ ὅσον οὐ χωρὶς ὁρκωμοσίας οἵ μέν γάρ χωρίς ὁρκωμοσίας εἰσιν ἱερεῖς γεγονότες

KJV 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:)

TR1550 ²¹ ὁ δὲ μετὰ ὁρκωμοσίας διὰ τοῦ λέγοντος πρὸς αὐτόν ὢμοσεν κύριος καὶ οὐ μεταμεληθήσεται σὺ ἱερεὺς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα κατὰ τὴν τάξιν μελχισεδέκ

KJV ²² By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.

TR1550 ²² κατὰ τοσοῦτον κρείττονος διαθήκης γέγονεν ἔγγυος ἰησοῦς

KJV ²³ And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:

TR1550 ²³ καὶ οἱ μὲν πλείονές εἰσιν γεγονότες ἱερεῖς διὰ τὸ θανάτῳ κωλύεσθαι παραμένειν

KJV ²⁴ But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.

TR1550 ²⁴ ὁ δὲ διὰ τὸ μένειν αὐτὸν εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ἀπαράβατον ἔχει τὴν ἱερωσύνην

KJV 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.

TR1550 ²⁵ ὅθεν καὶ σῴζειν εἰς τὸ παντελὲς δύναται τοὺς προσερχομένους δι᾽ αὐτοῦ τῷ θεῷ πάντοτε ζῶν εἰς τὸ ἐντυγχάνειν ὑπὲρ αὐτῶν

KJV ²⁶ For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;

TR1550 ²⁶ τοιοῦτος γὰρ ἡμῖν ἔπρεπεν ἀρχιερεύς ὅσιος ἄκακος ἀμίαντος κεχωρισμένος ἀπὸ τῶν ἁμαρτωλῶν καὶ ὑψηλότερος τῶν οὐρανῶν γενόμενος

KJV 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.

TR1550 ²⁷ ὃς οὐκ ἔχει καθ᾽ ἡμέραν ἀνάγκην ὥσπερ οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς πρότερον ὑπὲρ τῶν ἰδίων ἁμαρτιῶν θυσίας ἀναφέρειν ἔπειτα τῶν τοῦ λαοῦ τοῦτο γὰρ ἐποίησεν ἐφάπαξ ἑαυτὸν ἀνενέγκας

KJV 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.

TR1550 ²⁸ ὁ νόμος γὰρ ἀνθρώπους καθίστησιν ἀρχιερεῖς ἔχοντας ἀσθένειαν ὁ λόγος δὲ τῆς ὁρκωμοσίας τῆς μετὰ τὸν νόμον υἱὸν εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τετελειωμένον
