17 For it is testified,
"You are a priest ⌊forever⌋* according to the order of Melchizedek."* 18 For on the one hand a preceding commandment is set aside because of its weakness and uselessness 19 (for the law made nothing perfect), but on the other hand there is the introduction of a better hope through which we draw near to God. 20 And by as much as this was not without an oath (for these on the one hand ⌊have become priests⌋* without an oath, 21 but he 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⌋*'"*), 22 by so much more* Jesus has become the guarantee of a better covenant.
