7:1

ወመልከ ጼዴቅሰ ንጉሠ ሳሌም ካህኑ ለእግዚአብሔር ልዑል ውእቱ ዘመጽአ ወተራከቦ ለአብርሃም አመ ተመይጠ እምኀበ ተቃተሎሙ ለነገሥት ወባረኮሂ።

For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of God Most High, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him,

這麥基洗德就是撒冷王，又是至高上帝的祭司，本是長遠為祭司的。他當亞伯拉罕殺敗諸王回來的時候，就迎接他，給他祝福。

7:2

ወከፈሎ አብርሃም ዐሥራተ እምኵሉ ቀዳሚ ትርጓሜ ስሙ ንጉሠ ጽድቅ ወእምዝ ንጉሠ ሳሌም ንጉሠ ሰላም ብሂል።

to whom also Abraham divided a tenth part of all (being first, by interpretation, “king of righteousness”, and then also “king of Salem”, which means “king of peace”,

亞伯拉罕也將自己所得來的，取十分之一給他。他頭一個名翻出來就是仁義王，他又名撒冷王，就是平安王的意思。

7:3

አልቦ ዘዘከረ ሎቱ አበ ወኢእመ ወአልቦ ጥንት ለመዋዕሊሁ ወኢማኅለቅት ለሕይወቱ በአምሳሊሁ ለወልደ እግዚአብሔር ይነብር ክህነቱ ለዝሉፉ።

without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like the Son of God), remains a priest continually.

他無父，無母，無族譜，無生之始，無命之終，乃是與上帝的兒子相似。

7:4

ትሬእዩኑ ዕበዮ ለዝንቱ ዘወሀቦ አብርሃም ዐሥራተ እምኵሉ ዘይኄይስ ወርእሶሙ ለአበው ውእቱ።

Now consider how great this man was, to whom even Abraham the patriarch gave a tenth out of the best plunder.

你們想一想，先祖亞伯拉罕將自己所擄來上等之物取十分之一給他，這人是何等尊貴呢！

7:5

ወደቂቀ ሌዊሰ ሶበ ይነሥኡ ክህነተ ቦሙ ሥርዐተ ትእዛዝ እምኦሪት ከመ ይንሥኡ ዐሥራተ እምሕዝብ በከመ ሥርዐተ ሕጎሙ እምላዕለ አኀዊሆሙ እለ ወፅኡ እምሐቌሁ ለአብርሃም።

They indeed of the sons of Levi who receive the priest’s office have a commandment to take tithes from the people according to the law, that is, of their brothers, though these have come out of the body of Abraham,

那得祭司職任的利未子孫，領命照例向百姓取十分之一，這百姓是自己的弟兄，雖是從亞伯拉罕身中生的，還是照例取十分之一。

7:6

ወለዘኢኮነሰ እምዘመዶሙ ወሀቦ አብርሃም ዐሥራተ ወባረኮ ለአብርሃም ዘሎቱ ተስፋ።

but he whose genealogy is not counted from them has accepted tithes from Abraham, and has blessed him who has the promises.

獨有麥基洗德，不與他們同譜，倒收納亞伯拉罕的十分之一，為那蒙應許的亞伯拉罕祝福。

7:7

ወይትዐወቅ ባሕቱ ዘእንበለ ካሕድ ከመ ዘየዐቢ ይባርኮ ለዘይንእስ።

But without any dispute the lesser is blessed by the greater.

從來位分大的給位分小的祝福，這是駁不倒的理。

7:8

ወበዝየሰ ሰብእ መዋቲ ይነሥእ ዐሥራተ ወበከሃሰ ለሊሁ ይነሥእ ዘሰማዕቱ መጽሐፍ ከመ ሕያው ውእቱ።

Here people who die receive tithes, but there one receives tithes of whom it is testified that he lives.

在這裏收十分之一的都是必死的人；但在那裏收十分之一的，有為他作見證的說，他是活的；

7:9

ወተብህለ በእንተ አብርሃም ከመ ወሀቦ ዐሥራተ ወሌዊሰ ዘይነሥእ ዐሥራተ ውእቱኒ ዐሠረ።

We can say that through Abraham even Levi, who receives tithes, has paid tithes,

並且可說那受十分之一的利未，也是藉着亞伯拉罕納了十分之一。
