Hebrews:7:1-10

*
For this Melchisedec ,
king of Salem ,
priest of the most high God ,
who met (
5660 )
Abraham returning (
5723 )
from the slaughter of the kings ,
and blessed (
5660 )
him ;
*
To whom also Abraham gave (
5656 )
a tenth part of all ;
first being by interpretation (
5746 )
King of righteousness ,
and after that also King of Salem ,
which is (
5748 ),
King of peace ;
*
Without father ,
without mother ,
without descent ,
having (
5723 )
neither beginning of days ,
nor end of life ;
but made like (
5772 )
unto the Son of God ;
abideth (
5719 )
a priest continually .
*
Now consider (
5719 )
how great this man was ,
unto whom even the patriarch Abraham gave (
5656 )
the tenth of the spoils .
*
And verily they that are of the sons of Levi ,
who receive (
5723 )
the office of the priesthood ,
have (
5719 )
a commandment to take tithes (
5721 )
of the people according to the law ,
that is (
5748 ),
of their brethren ,
though they come (
5761 )
out of the loins of Abraham :
*
But he whose descent is not counted (
5746 )
from them received tithes (
5758 )
of Abraham ,
and blessed (
5758 )
him that had (
5723 )
the promises .
*
And without all contradiction the less is blessed (
5743 )
of the better .
*
And here men that die (
5723 )
receive (
5719 )
tithes ;
but there he receiveth them ,
of whom it is witnessed (
5746 )
that he liveth (
5719 ).
*
And as I may so say (
5629 ),
Levi also ,
who receiveth (
5723 )
tithes ,
payed tithes (
5769 )
in Abraham .
*
For he was (
5713 )
yet in the loins of his father ,
when Melchisedec met (
5656 )
him .
