Hebrews 2:1-7
1For this reason we must pay much closer attention to 1what we have heard, so that 2we do not drift away from it. 2For if the word 3spoken through 4angels proved 5unalterable, and 6every violation and act of disobedience received a just 78punishment, 39how will we escape if we neglect so great a 10salvation? 11After it was at first 12spoken through the Lord, it was 13confirmed to us by those who heard, 4God also testifying with them, both by 14signs and wonders, and by 15various 16miracles and by 1718gifts of the Holy Spirit 19according to His own will.
5For He did not subject to angels 2021the world to come, about which we are speaking. 6But someone has testified 22somewhere, saying, “23What is man, that You think of him? Or a son of man, that You are concerned about him?724You have made him 25for a little while lower than angels; You have crowned him with glory and honor26;
