Hebrews 7:4-6

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁴ Now consider how great this man was—even Abraham the patriarch^(A) gave a tenth of the plunder to him! ⁵ The sons of Levi who receive the priestly office have a command according to the law to collect a tenth from the people^(B)—that is, from their brothers—though they have also descended from Abraham.^{[a] 6} But one without this^[b] lineage collected tenths from Abraham and blessed the one who had the promises.^(C)
