Hebrews 7:19-25

WNT(i) 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. 20 And since it was not without an oath being taken-- 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" -- 22 so much the more also is the Covenant of which Jesus has become the guarantor, a better covenant. 23 And they have been appointed priests many in number, because death prevents their continuance in office: 24 but He, because He continues for ever, has a priesthood which does not pass to any successor. 25 Hence too He is able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, seeing that He ever lives to plead for them.
