Verse 3 is found in chapter 7 of Hebrews. Melchizedek is presented as king of Salem and priest of the Most High God. His figure functions typologically in the argument because he appears without the priestly genealogy characteristic of the Levitical system and is associated with a priesthood of a unique nature.

ohne Vater, ohne Mutter, ohne Geschlecht und hat weder Anfang der Tage noch Ende des Lebens: er ist aber verglichen dem Sohn Gottes und bleibt Priester in Ewigkeit.

qui est sans père, sans mère, sans généalogie, qui n'a ni commencement de jours ni fin de vie, -mais qui est rendu semblable au Fils de Dieu, -ce Melchisédek demeure sacrificateur à perpétuité.
senza padre, senza madre, senza genealogia; non avendo nè principio di giorni, nè fin di vita; anzi, rappresentato simile al Figliuol di Dio, dimora sacerdote in perpetuo.
Sem pai, sem mãe, sem genealogia, não tendo princípio de dias nem fim de vida, mas sendo feito semelhante ao Filho de Deus, permanece sacerdote para sempre.
他無父、無母、無族譜、無生之始、無命之終,是與上帝的兒子相似,他永遠作祭司。
