Hebrews 7:11

NETBible	So if perfection had in fact been possible through the Levitical priesthood – for on that basis¹ the people received the law – what further need would there have been for another priest to arise, said to be in the order of Melchizedek and not in Aaron’s order?
NIV © biblegateway Heb 7:11	If perfection could have been attained through the Levitical priesthood (for on the basis of it the law was given to the people), why was there still need for another priest to come—one in the order of Melchizedek, not in the order of Aaron?
NASB © biblegateway Heb 7:11	Now if perfection was through the Levitical priesthood (for on the basis of it the people received the Law), what further need was there for another priest to arise according to the order of Melchizedek, and not be designated according to the order of Aaron?
NLT © biblegateway Heb 7:11	And finally, if the priesthood of Levi could have achieved God’s purposes––and it was that priesthood on which the law was based––why did God need to send a different priest from the line of Melchizedek, instead of from the line of Levi and Aaron?
MSG © biblegateway Heb 7:11	If the priesthood of Levi and Aaron, which provided the framework for the giving of the law, could really make people perfect, there wouldn't have been need for a new priesthood like that of Melchizedek.
BBE © SABDAweb Heb 7:11	Now if it was possible for things to be made complete through the priests of the house of Levi (for the law was given to the people in connection with them), what need was there for another priest who was of the order of Melchizedek and not of the order of Aaron?
NRSV © bibleoremus Heb 7:11	Now if perfection had been attainable through the levitical priesthood—for the people received the law under this priesthood—what further need would there have been to speak of another priest arising according to the order of Melchizedek, rather than one according to the order of Aaron?
NKJV © biblegateway Heb 7:11	Therefore, if perfection were through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need was there that another priest should rise according to the order of Melchizedek, and not be called according to the order of Aaron?
