Hebrews 2:5-9

5For He did not subject to angels 1 2the world to come, concerning which we are speaking. 6But one has testified 3somewhere, saying, “4What is man, that You remember him? Or the son of man, that You are concerned about him?7 5You have made him 6for a little while lower than the angels; You have crowned him with glory and honor, 7And have appointed him over the works of Your hands;8 8You have put all things in subjection under his feet.” For in subjecting all things to him, He left nothing that is not subject to him. But now 9we do not yet see all things subjected to him. 9But we do see Him who was 10made 11for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus, 12because of the suffering of death 13crowned with glory and honor, so that 14by the grace of God He might 15taste death 16for everyone.
