Hebrews 7:2

NETBible

To him 1  also Abraham apportioned a tithe 2  of everything. 3  His name first means 4  king of righteousness, then king of Salem, that is, king of peace.

NIV ©

and Abraham gave him a tenth of everything. First, his name means "king of righteousness"; then also, "king of Salem" means "king of peace".

NASB ©

to whom also Abraham apportioned a tenth part of all the spoils, was first of all, by the translation of his name, king of righteousness, and then also king of Salem, which is king of peace.

NLT ©

Then Abraham took a tenth of all he had won in the battle and gave it to Melchizedek. His name means "king of justice." He is also "king of peace" because Salem means "peace."

MSG ©

Abraham in turn gave him a tenth of the spoils. "Melchizedek" means "King of Righteousness." "Salem" means "Peace." So, he is also "King of Peace."

BBE ©

And to whom Abraham gave a tenth part of everything which he had, being first named King of righteousness, and then in addition, King of Salem, that is to say, King of peace;

NRSV ©

and to him Abraham apportioned "one-tenth of everything." His name, in the first place, means "king of righteousness"; next he is also king of Salem, that is, "king of peace."

NKJV ©

to whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all, first being translated "king of righteousness," and then also king of Salem, meaning "king of peace,"

NETBible

To him 1  also Abraham apportioned a tithe 2  of everything. 3  His name first means 4  king of righteousness, then king of Salem, that is, king of peace.

NET Notes

1 tn Grk “to whom,” continuing the description of Melchizedek. Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

2 tn Or “a tenth part.”

3 sn A quotation from Gen 14:20.

4 tn Grk “first being interpreted,” describing Melchizedek.
