19(Because the law made nothing complete), and in its place there is a better hope, through which we come near to God.
20And as this is not without the taking of an oath
21(For those were made priests without an oath, but this one was made a priest with an oath by him who says of him, The Lord gave his oath, which he will not take back, that you are a priest for ever);
22By so much is it a better agreement which we have through Jesus.
23And it is true that there have been a great number of those priests, because death does not let them go on for ever;
24But this priest, because his life goes on for ever, is unchanging.
25So that he is fully able to be the saviour of all who come to God through him, because he is ever living to make prayer to God for them.
