8 In the one case, the tenth is collected by people who die; but in the other case, by him who is declared to be living.

8 In the one case tithes are received by mortal men, but in the other case, by one of whom it is testified that he lives.

8 And here men that die receive tithes; but there he receiveth them, of whom it is witnessed that he liveth.

8 The priests who collect tithes are men who die, so Melchizedek is greater than they are, because we are told that he lives on.

8 Here mortal men receive tithes, but there he receives them, of whom it is witnessed that he lives.

8 Priests receive a tenth, even though they are only men who live and then die. But Melchizedek, who received a tenth from Abraham, continues living, as the Scripture says.

8 And here dying men receive tithes; but there one of whom the witness is that he lives;

8 Priests receive a tenth of everything, but they die. Melchizedek received a tenth of everything, but we are told that he lives.

8 In the one case, men who will die receive tenths, but in the other case, Scripture testifies that he lives.

8 In the one case, tithes are received by those who are mortal; in the other, by one of whom it is testified that he lives.

8 And in this case mortal men receive tithes, but in that case it is testified that he lives.

8 In the one case, the tenth is collected by men who die. But in the other case, it is collected by the one who is said to be living.

8 In this case mortal men receive tithes, but in that case one receives them, of whom it is witnessed that he lives on.
