Hebrews:2:5-18
Seeker Overlay ON
*
For he has not subjected to angels the habitable world which is to come ,
of which we speak ;
*
but one has testified somewhere ,
saying ,
What is man ,
that thou rememberest him ,
or son of man that thou visitest him ?
*
Thou hast made him some little inferior to the angels ;
thou hast crowned him with glory and honour , [
and hast set him over the works of thy hands ;]
*
thou hast subjected all things under his feet .
For in subjecting all things to him ,
he has left nothing unsubject to him .
But now we see not yet all things subjected to him ,
*
but we see Jesus ,
who [
was ]
made some little inferior to angels on account of the suffering of death ,
crowned with glory and honour ;
so that by the grace of God he should taste death for every thing .
*
For it became him ,
for whom [
are ]
all things ,
and by whom [
are ]
all things ,
in bringing many sons to glory ,
to make perfect the leader of their salvation through sufferings .
*
For both he that sanctifies and those sanctified [
are ]
all of one ;
for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren ,
*
saying ,
I will declare thy name to my brethren ;
in [
the ]
midst of [
the ]
assembly will I sing thy praises .
*
And again ,
I will trust in him .
And again ,
Behold ,
I and the children which God has given me .
*
Since therefore the children partake of blood and flesh ,
he also ,
in like manner ,
took part in the same ,
that through death he might annul him who has the might of death ,
that is ,
the devil ;
*
and might set free all those who through fear of death through the whole of their life were subject to bondage .
*
For he does not indeed take hold of angels [
by the hand ],
but he takes hold of the seed of Abraham .
*
Wherefore it behoved him in all things to be made like to [
his ]
brethren ,
that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things relating to God ,
to make propitiation for the sins of the people ;
*
for ,
in that himself has suffered ,
being tempted ,
he is able to help those that are being tempted .
