17For it is testified:
“You are a priest forever
in the order of Melchizedek.”
18So the former commandment is set aside because it was weak and useless
19(for the law made nothing perfect), and a better hope is introduced, by which we draw near to God.
20And none of this happened without an oath. For others became priests without an oath,
21but Jesus became a priest with an oath by the One who said to Him:
“The Lord has sworn and will not change His mind:
‘You are a priest forever.’”
— Hebrews 7:17-21
