19. (For the law brought nothing to perfection,) but a bringing in of a better hope, by which we draw nigh to God.
20. And inasmuch as it is not without an oath, (for the others indeed were made priests without an oath;
21. But this with an oath, by him that said unto him: The Lord hath sworn, and he will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever.)
22. By so much is Jesus made a surety of a better testament.
23. And the others indeed were made many priests, because by reason of death they were not suffered to continue:
24. But this, for that he continueth for ever, hath an everlasting priesthood,
25. Whereby he is able also to save for ever them that come to God by him; always living to make intercession for us.
