Greek of the New Testament: ὁ δὲ μετὰ ὁρκωμοσίας διὰ τοῦ λέγοντος πρὸς αὐτόν Ὤμοσεν κύριος καὶ οὐ μεταμεληθήσεται Σὺ ἱερεὺς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα
Hebrew (Masoretic text): נִשְׁבַּע יְהוָה וְלֹא יִנָּחֵם אַתָּה כֹהֵן לְעוֹלָם עַל דִּבְרָתִי מַלְכִּי צֶדֶק
Septuagint (Psalms 109:4 in the Septuagint numbering): ὤμοσεν Κύριος καὶ οὐ μεταμεληθήσεται Σὺ εἶ ἱερεὺς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα κατὰ τὴν τάξιν Μελχισέδεκ.
The Greek of the NT matches the Septuagint word for word in 6 consecutive words: “Ὤμοσεν κύριος καὶ οὐ μεταμεληθήσεται Σὺ.”
