17. for He does witness, “You are a priest forever according to the order of Malkitseḏeq.”
18. For there is indeed a setting aside of the former command because of its weakness and unprofitableness,
19. for the Torah perfected naught, but the bringing in of a better expectation, through which we draw near to Elohim.
20. And it was not without an oath!
21. For they indeed became priests without an oath, but He became Priest with an oath by Him who said to Him, “יהוה has sworn and shall not regret, ‘You are a priest forever according to the order of Malkitseḏeq.’ ”
22. By as much as this יהושע has become a guarantor of a better covenant.
