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.
23. And indeed, those that became priests were many, because they were prevented by death from continuing,
24. but He, because He remains forever, has an unchangeable priesthood.
25. Therefore He is also able to save completely those who draw near to Elohim through Him, ever living to make intercession for them.
26. For it was fitting that we should have such a High Priest – kind, innocent, undefiled, having been separated from sinners, and exalted above the heavens,
27. who does not need, as those high priests, to offer up slaughter offerings day by day, first for His own sins and then for those of the people, for this He did once for all when He offered up Himself.
28. For the Torah appoints as high priests men who have weakness, but the word of the oath which came after the Torah, appoints the Son having been perfected forever.
