Hebrews:2:5-18
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Moreover ,
he has not subjected to the angels the world to come ,
of which we are speaking .
* «
But one in a certain place has testified ,
saying ,» '
What is man that thou art mindful of him-or the son of man ,
that thou dost regard him ?'
*
Thou hast made him a little lower than the angels ;
thou hast crowned him with glory and honor ,
* «
thou hast put all things under his feet .» '
Now ,
by putting all things in subjection to him ,
he left nothing that is not subject to him ;
but now ,
we do not yet see all things subjected to him ;'
*
but we see Jesus ,
who was made a little lower than the angels ,
that he ,
by the favor of God ,
might taste death for all ;
for the suffering of death ,
crowned with glory and honor !
*
For it became him ,
for whom are all things ,
and by whom are all things ,
to make him ,
who leads many sons to glory-even the Captain of their Salvation-perfect through sufferings .
*
For both he who sanctifies ,
and they who are sanctified ,
are all of one Father ;
for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren ;
* «
saying ,» '
I will announce thy name to my brethren :
in the midst of the congregation I will sing praises to thee .'
* «
And ,
again ,» '
I will put my trust in him .' '
And again , '«
Behold I ,
and the children whom God has given me .»
*
Since ,
then ,
the children partook of flesh and blood ;
he ,
also ,
in like manner ,
partook of these ;
that ,
through death ,
he might vanquish him who had the power of death ,
that is ,
the devil ;
*
and deliver them ,
who ,
through fear of death ,
were all their lifetime subject to bondage .
*
For ,
indeed ,
he has not at all assumed the nature of angels ;
but he has assumed the seed of Abraham .
*
Hence ,
it was necessary for him to be made like his brethren in all things ;
that he might be a merciful and faithful High Priest ,
in matters pertaining to God ,
in order to expiate the sins of the people ;
*
for ,
by what he suffered himself ,
when tried ;
he is able to succor them who are tried .
