Hebrews 7:3-5

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³ Without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but likened unto the Son of God, continueth a priest for ever.

⁴ Now consider how great this man is, to whom also Abraham the patriarch gave tithes out of the principal things.

⁵ And indeed they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is to say, of their brethren: though they themselves also came out of the loins of Abraham.
