20 Also, when God said that Jesus would be his special priest, he made a strong promise. When the Levites became priests, he did not make a strong promise like that. 21 But when Jesus became God's priest, God made a strong promise. God said:
‘The Lord God has promised this.
He will not change his mind.
You will be a priest for ever.’
22 Because God promised that to Jesus, we know that his new covenant with his people is very strong. It is a much better covenant than the old one.
