For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him;
2 ᎠᎴ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎾᏍᏉ ᎡᏆᎭᎻ ᏂᎦᏛ ᏧᎬᏩᎶᏗ ᎠᏰᎲ ᎠᏍᎪᎯᏁ ᎪᏣᎴᏛ ᏧᏁᎸᏁᎢ; ᎢᎬᏱᏱ ᎨᏒ [ ᏚᏙᎥ ] ᎠᏁᏢᏔᏅᎯ ᎨᏒ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᏚᏳᎪᏛ ᎢᏯᏛᏁᎯ ᎦᏛᎦ, ᎣᏂᏃ ᎾᏍᏉ ᏎᎳᏂ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᎠᎪᏎᎭ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᏅᏩᏙᎯᏯᏛ ᎤᏚᎵᏍᎩ ᏥᎦᏛᎦ.
To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace;

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

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

And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham:
6 ᎾᏍᎩᏍᎩᏂ Ꮎ ᎤᎾᏁᏢᏔᏅᏛ ᎨᏒ ᎵᏫ ᎠᏂᎳᏍᏓᎸ ᏅᏧᏓᎴᏅᎲᎾ ᏥᎩ, ᎠᏍᎪᎯᏁ ᎪᏣᎴᏛ ᏚᏓᏂᎸᏤᎴ ᎡᏆᎭᎻ, ᎠᎴ ᎣᏍᏛ ᎤᏁᏤᎴ ᎠᏚᎢᏍᏔᏅᎯ ᎨᏒ ᏣᎦᎨᏅᏯ.
But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.
7 ᎠᎴ ᏄᏜᏓᏏᏛᏒᎾ ᎡᏍᎦ ᎢᏯᏥᎸᏉᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎣᏍᏛ ᎤᏁᏤᎰ ᎤᏟ ᎢᏯᏥᎸᏉᏗ.
And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better.

And here men that die receive tithes; but there he receives them, of whom it is witnessed that he lives.

And as I may so say, Levi also, who receives tithes, paid tithes in Abraham.
10 ᎠᏏᏉᏰᏃ ᎤᏙᏓ ᎠᏰᎸ ᎠᏯᎡᎢ ᎾᎯᏳ ᎹᎵᎩᏏᏕᎩ ᏥᏚᏠᏍᎨᎢ.
For he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedec met him.
11 ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᏳᏍᏗ ᎢᏳᏃ ᎠᏥᎸᎨᎳᏍᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎠᏂᎵᏫ ᏥᎨᎦᏒᎦᎶᏕ, ᏅᏍᎦᏅᎾ ᎢᎬᏩᏓᏛᏁᏗ ᏱᎨᏎᎢ, ( ᎠᏥᎸ-ᎨᎳᏍᏗᏰᏃ ᎨᏒ ᎠᎴ ᏗᎧᎿᎭᏩᏛᏍᏗ ᏚᎾᏚᏓᏖ ᏴᏫ ᎦᎾᏓᏂᎸᏨ ) ᎦᏙᏃ ᎠᏏ ᎤᏚᎸᏗ ᏂᎦᎵᏍᏗᏍᎨ ᏅᏩᏓᎴ ᎠᏥᎸᎨᎶᎯ ᎤᎾᏄᎪᎢᏍᏗᏱ ᎹᎵᎩᏏᏕᎩ ᏄᏍᏛ ᎾᏍᎩᏯᎢ, ᎡᎳᏂᏃ ᎾᏍᎩᏯ ᎦᏰᎪᏎᏗ ᏂᎨᏒᎾ ᎨᏒᎢ?
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?
12 ᎠᏥᎸ-ᎨᎳᏍᏗᏰᏃ ᎨᏒ ᎤᏓᏁᏟᏴᏛ ᎨᏒᎢ, ᎠᏎ ᎾᏍᏉ ᎦᏁᏟᏴᏛ ᏂᎦᎵᏍᏗᎭ ᏗᎧᎿᎭᏩᏛᏍᏗ.
For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.
13 ᎾᏍᎩᏰᏃ Ꮎ ᎯᎠ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎤᎬᏩᎵ ᎠᏥᏁᎢᏍᏔᏅᎯ ᎨᏒ ᎤᏣᏘᏂ ᎠᏂᎳᏍᏓᎸ ᎨᎳ ᎨᏒᎩ, ᎾᏍᎩ [ ᎠᏂᎳᏍᏓᎸ ] ᎤᏓᎴᏅᎯ ᎥᏝ ᎩᎶ ᎠᏥᎸᎨᎳᏍᏗᏱ ᏱᏚᎸᏫᏍᏓᏁᎮᎢ.
For he of whom these things are spoken pertains to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar.
14 ᎬᏂᎨᏒᎢᏳᏰᏃ ᏂᎦᎵᏍᏗᎭ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᎦᏤᎵ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᏧᏓ ᎠᏂᎳᏍᏓᎸ ᏧᏓᎴᏅᎲᎢ; ᎾᏍᎩ ᎠᏂᎳᏍᏓᎸ ᎼᏏ ᎥᏝ ᏱᏚᏁᎢᏍᏔᏁ ᎠᏥᎸ-ᎨᎳᏍᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎤᎬᏩᎵ.
For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priesthood.
15 ᎠᎴ ᎠᏏ ᎤᏟ ᎬᏂᎨᏒ ᏂᎦᎵᏍᏗᎭ, ᎢᏳᏃ ᎺᎵᎩᏏᏕᎩ ᏄᏍᏛ ᎾᏍᎩᏯ ᏅᏩᏓᎴ ᎠᏥᎸ-ᎨᎶᎯ ᏱᎦᎾᏄᎪᎦ,
And it is yet far more evident: for that after the embodiment of Melchisedec there arises another priest,
16 ᎾᏍᎩ ᎠᏥᎩ-ᎨᎶᎯ ᎾᎬᏁᎸ ᏗᎧᎿᎭᏩᏛᏍᏗ ᎤᏇᏓᎵ ᎤᎬᏩᎵ ᎾᏍᎩᏯ ᎾᎬᏁᎸᎾ ᎨᏒᎢ, ᎬᏂᏛᏍᎩᏂ ᎠᎵᏍᏆᏗᏍᎩ ᏂᎨᏒᎾ ᎤᎵᏂᎬᎬ ᎾᏍᎩᏯᎢ.
Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life.
For he testifies, You are a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec. (aiōn g165)
18 ᎤᏙᎯᏳᎯᏰᏃ ᎢᏴᏛ ᎢᎬᏁᎸᎯ ᏂᎦᎵᏍᏗᎭ ᎢᎬᏱᏱ ᎤᎵᏁᏨᎯ ᏗᎧᎿᎭᏩᏛᏍᏗ, ᎠᏩᏂᎦᎳᎯᏳ ᎨᏒ ᎠᎴ ᎬᏩᏓᏍᏕᎸᏗ ᏂᎨᏒᎾ ᎨᏒ ᎢᏳᏍᏗ.
For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof.
19 ᏗᎧᎿᎭᏩᏛᏍᏗᏰᏃ ᎥᏝ ᎦᎷᎶᎩ ᏂᎨᏒᎾ ᎢᎬᏁᎯ ᏱᎨᏎ ᎪᎱᏍᏗ; ᎤᏟᏍᎩᏂ ᎢᏝᏍᏛ ᎤᏚᎩ ᎬᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎠᏴᏔᏂᎸᎯ ᏥᎩ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᏛᏗᏍᎬ ᎾᎥ ᎦᏰᏗᎷᏤᏗ ᏥᏂᎦᎵᏍᏗᎭ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᎦᎷᎶᎩ ᏂᎨᏒᎾ ᏂᎬᏁᎭ.
For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God.
20 ᎠᎴ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎠᏎᎵᏔᏅᎯ ᎨᏒ ᎬᏔᏅᎯ ᏥᎩ [ ᎦᎶᏁᏛ ᎠᏥᎸ-ᎨᎶᎯ ᎢᏯᎬᏁᎸᎯ ᏥᎩ, ]
And inasmuch as not without an oath he was made priest:
21 ( ᎾᏍᎩᏰᏃ Ꮎ ᎠᏥᎸ-ᎠᏁᎶᎯ ᏂᎨᎬᏁᎮ ᎠᏎᎵᏔᏅᎯ ᏂᎨᏒᎾ; ᎯᎠᏍᎩᏂ Ꮎ ᎠᏎᎵᏔᏅᎯ ᎨᏒ ᎠᎬᏓᏁᎴᎢ, ᎯᎠ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᏳᏪᏎᎸᎯ, ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᎤᏎᎵᏔᏅ ᎠᎴ ᎥᏝ ᎠᎦᏁᏟᏴᎾ ᏂᎯ ᎠᏥᎸ-ᎮᎶᎯ ᏂᎪᎯᎸᎢ ᎺᎵᎩᏏᏕᎩ ᏄᏍᏛ ᎾᏍᎩᏯᎢ.) (aiōn g165)
(For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath by him that said unto him, The Lord swore and will not repent, You are a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec: ) (aiōn g165)
22 ᎾᏍᎩᏯ ᎢᏴᏛ ᎤᎶᏒᏍᏗ ᏔᎵ ᎠᏛᏗᏍᎩ ᏫᎬᏁᎴ ᏥᏌ ᎧᏃᎮᏛ ᏓᏠᎯᏍᏛᎢ.
By so much was Jesus made a guarantor of a better testament.

And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:
But this man, because he continues ever, has an unchangeable priesthood. (aiōn g165)
25 ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᏳᏍᏗ ᏂᎪᎯᎸ ᏰᎵᏉ ᎾᏍᏉ ᏗᎬᏩᏍᏕᎸᏗ ᎾᏍᎩ Ꮎ ᎤᏩᏒ ᎬᏩᎷᎯᏍᏓᏁᎯ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᎠᏂᎷᏤᎲᎢ, ᏫᎾᏍᏛᎾᏰᏃ ᎡᎭ ᏧᎵᏍᏗᏰᏓᏁᏗᏱ.
Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever lives to make intercession for them.
26 ᎾᏍᎩᏰᏃ ᎢᏳᏍᏗ ᎠᏥᎸ-ᎨᎶᎯ ᎢᎩᎵᎶᎲᏍᎩ ᎨᏒᎩ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎾᏍᎦᏅᎾ, ᎤᏲ ᎢᎬᏩᏓᏛᏁᏗ ᏂᎨᏒᎾ, ᎠᏍᎦᎾ ᏄᏓᏅᎦᎸᎾ, ᎠᏂᏍᎦᎾ ᎠᏁᎲ ᎠᎦᏓᏓᎴᏔᏅᎯ, ᎠᎴ ᎦᎸᎶ ᎤᏗᏗᏢ ᎢᏴᏛ ᎠᏥᏌᎳᏓᏅᎯ;
For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
27 ᎾᏍᎩ Ꮎ ᎤᏚᎸᏗ ᏄᎵᏍᏓᏁᎲᎾ ᏂᏚᎩᏨᏂᏒ ᎠᏥᎸ-ᎤᏪᎳᏍᏗᏱ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎾᎾᏛᏁᎲ ᏄᏂᎬᏫᏳᏌᏕᎩ ᎠᏥᎸᎠᏁᎶᎯ, ᎢᎬᏱ ᎤᏅᏒ ᎤᏂᏍᎦᏅᏨ ᎠᎫᏴᏙᏗ, ᎢᏉᏃ ᏴᏫ ᎤᏂᏍᎦᏅᏨ ᎠᎫᏴᏙᏗ; ᎾᏍᎩᏰᏃ ᎯᎠ ᏌᏉ ᏄᏛᏁᎴᎢ, ᎾᎯᏳ ᎤᏩᏒ ᎤᏓᎵᏍᎪᎸᏔᏅ.
Who needs 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.
28 ᏗᎧᎿᎭᏩᏛᏍᏗᏰᏃ ᏴᏫ ᏗᏂᏩᎾᎦᎳ ᏄᏂᎬᏫᏳᏒ ᎠᏥᎸ-ᎠᏁᎶᎯ ᏄᏅᏁᎰᎢ; ᎧᏁᏨᎯᏍᎩᏂ ᎠᏎᎵᏔᏅᎯ ᎠᏍᏓᏱᏗᏍᏔᏅᎯ ᎨᏒᎢ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᏗᎧᎿᎭᏩᏛᏍᏗ ᎤᎵᏁᏨ ᎣᏂ ᏧᎵᏁᏤᎢ, ᎤᏪᏥ [ ᎠᏥᎸᎨᎶᎯ ] ᏄᏩᏁᎴ ᎾᏍᎩ ᏂᎪᎯᎸ ᎦᎷᎶᎩ ᏂᎨᏒᎾ ᏥᎩ. (aiōn g165)
For the law makes men high priests which have infirmity; but the word (logos) of the oath, which was since the law, makes the Son, who is consecrated for evermore. (aiōn g165)
