נִשְׁבַּע יְהוָה׀ וְלֹא יִנָּחֵם אַתָּֽה-כֹהֵן לְעוֹלָם עַל-דִּבְרָתִי מַלְכִּי-צֶֽדֶק׃
The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.
καθὼς καὶ ἐν ἑτέρῳ λέγει Σὺ ἱερεὺς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα κατὰ τὴν τάξιν Μελχισέδεκ
As he saith also in another place, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
οἵ μέν γάρ χωρίς ὁρκωμοσίας εἰσιν ἱερεῖς γεγονότες ὁ δὲ μετὰ ὁρκωμοσίας διὰ τοῦ λέγοντος πρὸς αὐτόν· Ὤμοσεν κύριος καὶ οὐ μεταμεληθήσεται· Σὺ ἱερεὺς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα κατὰ τὴν τάξιν Μελχισεδέκ
(For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath by him that said unto him, The Lord sware and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec:)
καὶ περισσότερον ἔτι κατάδηλόν ἐστιν εἰ κατὰ τὴν ὁμοιότητα Μελχισέδεκ ἀνίσταται ἱερεὺς ἕτερος
And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest,
προσαγορευθεὶς ὑπὸ τοῦ θεοῦ ἀρχιερεὺς κατὰ τὴν τάξιν Μελχισέδεκ
Called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec.
ὅπου πρόδρομος ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν εἰσῆλθεν Ἰησοῦς κατὰ τὴν τάξιν Μελχισέδεκ ἀρχιερεὺς γενόμενος εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα
Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
