1 Therefore we ought G1163 to give the more περισσοτέρως perissoterōs G4056 earnest heed to the things G3778 that were heard G191 , lest haply we drift away from them . 2 For if the word λόγος logos G3056 spoken λαληθεὶς lalētheis G2980 through angels ἀγγέλων angelōn G32 proved stedfast, and every transgression παράβασις parabasis G3847 and disobedience παρακοὴ parakoē G3876 received G2983 a just recompense of reward G3405 ; 3 how πῶς pōs G4459 shall we escape ἐκφευξόμεθα ekpheuxometha G1628 , if we neglect so great τηλικαύτης tēlikautēs G5082 a salvation σωτηρίας; sōtērias G4991 ? which having at the first been spoken G2980 through the Lord κυρίου kuriou G2962 , was confirmed ἐβεβαιώθη ebebaiōthē G950 unto us by them that heard G191 ; 4 God θεοῦ theou G2316 also G2532 bearing witness with them , both by signs σημείοις sēmeiois G4592 and wonders τέρασιν terasin G5059 , and by manifold powers G1411 , and by gifts of the Holy ἁγίου hagiou G40 Spirit πνεύματος pneumatos G4151 , according κατὰ kata G2596 to his own will . 5 For not unto angels ἀγγέλοις angelois G32 did he subject ὑπέταξεν hupetaxen G5293 the world οἰκουμένην oikoumenēn G3625 to come G3195 , whereof we speak λαλοῦμεν· laloumen G2980 . 6 But one G5100 hath somewhere πού pou G4225 testified G1263 , saying λέγων· legōn G3004 , What is G1510 man ἄνθρωπος anthrōpos G444 , that thou art mindful of him ? Or the son υἱὸς huios G5207 of man ἀνθρώπου anthrōpou G444 , that thou visitest him ? 7 Thou madest him a little βραχύ brachu G1024 lower than the angels ἀγγέλους· angelous G32 ; Thou crownedst him with glory δόξῃ doxē G1391 and honor τιμῇ timēa G5092 , And didst set him over the works of thy hands: 9 But we behold him who hath been made a little βραχύ brachu G1024 lower than the angels ἀγγέλους angelous G32 , even G2532 Jesus Ἰησοῦν Iēsoun G2424 , because of the suffering of death θανάτου thanatou G2288 crowned ἐστεφανωμένον, estephanōmenon G4737 with glory δόξῃ doxē G1391 and honor τιμῇ timēa G5092 , that by the grace χάριτι chariti G5485 of God θεοῦ theou G2316 he should taste γεύσηται geusētai G1089 of death θανάτου. thanatou G2288 for every man . 10 For it became him , for whom are all things πάντα panta G3956 , and through whom are all things πάντα, panta G3956 , in bringing G71 many πολλοὺς pollous G4183 sons υἱοὺς huious G5207 unto glory δόξαν doxan G1391 , to make τελειῶσαι. teleiōsai G5048 the author of their salvation σωτηρίας sōtērias G4991 perfect G5048 through sufferings . 11 For both he that sanctifieth and they that are sanctified G37 are all of one ἑνὸς henos G1520 : for which cause G156 he is not ashamed ἐπαισχύνεται epaischunetai G1870 to call καλεῖν kalein G2564 them brethren , 12 saying λέγων· legōn G3004 , I will declare thy name ὄνομά onoma G3686 unto my brethren , In the midst μέσῳ mesō G3319 of the congregation ἐκκλησίας ekklēsias G1577 will I sing thy praise . 14 Since then the children G3813 are G1510 sharers in flesh σαρκός, sarkos G4561 and blood αἵματος aimatos G129 , he also G2532 himself in like manner partook of the same G846 ; that through death θανάτου thanatou G2288 he might bring to nought him that had the power κράτος kratos G2904 of death θανάτου, thanatou G2288 , that is G1510 , the devil διάβολον, diabolon G1228 ; 15 and might deliver all them who through fear φόβῳ phobō G5401 of death θανάτου thanatou G2288 were G1510 all their lifetime subject to bondage. 16 For verily not to angels ἀγγέλων angelōn G32 doth he give help ἐπιλαμβάνεται, epilambanetai G1949 , but he giveth help ἐπιλαμβάνεται. epilambanetai G1949 to the seed σπέρματος spermatos G4690 of Abraham Ἀβραὰμ Abraam G11 . 17 Wherefore it behooved him in all things πάντα panta G3956 to be made like unto his brethren , that he might become γένηται genētai G1096 a merciful ἐλεήμων eleēmōn G1655 and faithful πιστὸς pistos G4103 high ἀρχιερεὺς archiereus G749 priest G749 in things G3956 pertaining to God θεὸν theon G2316 , to make propitiation for the sins ἁμαρτίας hamartias G266 of the people λαοῦ. laou G2992 . 18 For in that he himself hath suffered πέπονθεν peponthen G3958 being tempted πειρασθείς, peirastheis G3985 , he is able δύναται dunatai G1410 to succor them that are tempted πειραζομένοις peirazomenois G3985 . ← Hebrews 1 Hebrews 3 → Commentaries on Hebrews 2 American Standard Version — 1901 — Public Domain
