Hebrews 7:20-22
Good News Translation
20 In addition, there is also God's vow. There was no such vow when the others were made priests. 21 (A)But Jesus became a priest by means of a vow when God said to him,
“The Lord has made a solemn promise
and will not take it back:
‘You will be a priest forever.’”
22 This difference, then, also makes Jesus the guarantee of a better covenant.
