Hebrews 2
1 Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed
tothe things which we have heard, lest at any time
we should let them slip.
2 For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and
every transgression and disobedience received a just
recompence of reward;
3 How shall we escape, if we neglect so great
salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by
the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that
heard him;
4 God also bearing them witness, both with signs and
wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the
Holy Ghost, according to his own will?
5 For unto the angels hath he not put in subjection
the world to come, whereof we speak.
6 But one in a certain place testified, saying, What
is man, that thou art mindful of him? or the son of
man, that thou visitest him?
7 Thou madest him a little lower than the angels;
thou crownedst him with glory and honour, and didst
set him over the works of thy hands:
8 Thou hast put all things in subjection under his
feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him,
he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we
see not yet all things put under him.
9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than
the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with
glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should
taste death for every man.
10 For it became him, for whom are all things, and by
whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto
glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect
through sufferings.
11 For both he that sanctifieth and they who are
sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not
ashamed to call them brethren,
12 Saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren,
in the midst of the church will I sing praise unto
thee.
13 And again, I will put my trust in him. And again,
Behold I and the children which God hath given me.
14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of
flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part
of the same; that through death he might destroy him
that had the power of death, that is, the devil;
15 And deliver them who through fear of death were
all their lifetime subject to bondage.
16 For verily he took not on him the nature of
angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham.
17 Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made
like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful
and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God,
to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.
18 For in that he himself hath suffered being
tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted.
