Hebrews 7:20-24 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

20. None of this happened without an oath. For others became priests without an oath,

21. but He became a priest with an oath made by the One who said to Him:The Lord has sworn,and He will not change His mind,You are a priest forever.

22. So Jesus has also become the guarantee of a better covenant.

23. Now many have become Levitical priests, since they are prevented by death from remaining in office.

24. But because He remains forever, He holds His priesthood permanently.
