Hebrews 7:4-6

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁴ See how great he is! Even^[a] Abraham the patriarch gave him a tenth of the spoils. ⁵ And those descendants of Levi who receive the priestly office have a commandment in the law to collect tithes^[b] from the people, that is, from their kindred,^[c] though these also are descended from Abraham. ⁶ But this man, who does not belong to their ancestry, collected tithes^[d] from Abraham and blessed him who had received the promises.
