Hebrews 7:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible
5 For verily they which are the children of Levi, which receive the office of the Priesthood, have a (A)commandment to take, according to the Law, tithes of the people (that is, of their brethren) though they [a]came out of the loins of Abraham.
6 But he whose kindred is not counted among them, received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.
7 And [b]without all contradiction the less is blessed of the greater.
