RKJNT(i)
11 Therefore, if perfection was from the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there for another priest to arise, in the order of Melchizedek, and not in the order of Aaron?
12 For when the priesthood is changed, there is, of necessity, also a change in the law.
13 For he of whom these things are spoken is from another tribe, from which no man ever served at the altar.
14 For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Judah; and of this tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priests.
15 And this becomes far more evident when, in the likeness of Melchizedek, another priest arises,
16 Who is made such, not by a law concerning a physical requirement, but by the power of an endless life.
17 For it is testified of him, You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.
18 So, there is a setting aside of the former commandment because of its weakness and uselessness,
19 (For the law made nothing perfect;) but there is the bringing in of a better hope; by which we draw near to God.
20 And it was not without an oath.
21 For others were indeed made priests without an oath; but he with an oath from the one who said to him, The Lord has sworn and will not change his mind, You are a priest forever.
22 By this has Jesus become the guarantee of a better covenant.
23 And there were many priests, because they were prevented by death from continuing:
24 But he, because he continues forever, has a perpetual priesthood.
25 Therefore, he is also able to completely save those who come to God through him, for he ever lives to make intercession for them.
26 For it was fitting for us to have such a high priest, holy, blameless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and exalted above the heavens;
27 Who has no need, as do those high priests, to offer up daily sacrifices, first for his own sins, and then for those of the people: for this he did once for all, when he offered up himself.
