Hebrews 7:2-4
Worldwide English (New Testament)
2 Abraham divided all that he took away from the kings into ten parts. He gave Melchizedek one part. First, the name Melchizedek means the king who is true and right with God. Then he was king of Salem. That means king of peace.
3 He has no father or mother. The names of the family from which he comes are not written down. It is not written down that he was born or that he died. But, like the Son of God, he stays on being a priest for ever.
4 Just think how great he was! Even Abraham, the father of our people, gave him a tenth, one part out of ten, of all he brought back.
