19 Porque nada perfeccionó la ley; mas [hízolo] la introducción de mejor esperanza, por la cual nos acercamos á Dios.
20 Y por cuanto no [fué] sin juramento,
21 (Porque los otros cierto sin juramento fueron hechos sacerdotes; mas éste, con juramento por el que le dijo: Juró el Señor, y no se arrepentirá: Tú eres sacerdote eternamente según el orden de Melchîsedec:)
