Hebrews 2

New American Standard Bible 2020

Pay Attention

1For thisG3778 reasonG1223 we mustG1163 payG4337 muchG4056 closerG4056 attentionG4337 to 1what we have heardG191, soG3379 thatG3379 2we do notG3379 driftG3901 awayG3901 from it. 2For ifG1487 the wordG3056 3spokenG2980 throughG1223 4angelsG32 provedG1096 5unalterableG949, and 6everyG3956 violationG3847 and actG3876 ofG3876 disobedienceG3876 receivedG2983 a justG1738 78punishmentG3405, 39howG4459 will we escapeG1628 if we neglectG272 soG5082 greatG5082 a 10salvationG4991? 11After it was at firstG746 12spokenG2980 throughG1223 the LordG2962, it was 13confirmedG950 to us by thoseG3588 who heardG191, 4GodG2316 also testifyingG3140 with them, bothG5037 by 14signsG4592 and wondersG5059, and by 15variousG4164 16miraclesG1411 and by 1718giftsG3311 of the HolyG40 SpiritG4151 19accordingG2596 to His own willG2308.

Earth Subject to Man

5For He did not subjectG5293 to angelsG32 2021the worldG3625 toG3195 comeG3195, aboutG4012 whichG3739 we are speakingG2980. 6But someoneG5100 has testifiedG1263 22somewhereG4225, sayingG3004, “23WhatG5101 is manG444, that You thinkG3403 of him? OrG2228 a sonG5207 of manG444, that You areG1980 concernedG1980 aboutG1980 him?724You have madeG1642 him 25for a littleG1024 whileG1024 lowerG1642 thanG3844 angelsG32; You have crownedG4737 him with gloryG1391 and honorG509226;827You have putG5293 everythingG3956 inG5293 subjectionG5293 underG5270 his feetG4228.” For in subjectingG5293 allG3956 thingsG3956 to him, He leftG863 nothingG3762 that is notG506 subjectG506 to him. But nowG3568 28we do not yetG3768 seeG3708 allG3956 thingsG3956 subjectedG5293 to him.

Jesus Briefly Humbled

9But we do seeG991 Him who was 29madeG1642 30for a littleG1024 whileG1024 lowerG1642 thanG3844 the angelsG32, namely, JesusG2424, 31becauseG1223 of His sufferingG3804 deathG2288 32crownedG4737 with gloryG1391 and honorG5092, soG3704 thatG3379 33by the graceG5485 of GodG2316 He might 34tasteG1089 deathG2288 35for everyoneG3956.

10For 36it was fittingG4241 for Him, 37for whomG3739 are allG3956 thingsG3956, and throughG1223 whomG3739 are allG3956 thingsG3956, in bringingG71 manyG4183 sonsG5207 to gloryG1391, to 38perfectG5048 the 3940originatorG747 of their salvationG4991 throughG1223 sufferingsG3804. 11For bothG5037 He who 41sanctifiesG37 and thoseG3588 who 42are 43sanctifiedG37 are allG3956 44from oneG1520 Father; for thisG3739 reasonG156 He isG1870 not ashamedG1870 to callG2564 them 45brothersG80 and sisters, 12sayingG3004, “46I will proclaimG518 Your nameG3686 to My brothersG80, In the midstG3319 of the assemblyG1577 I will singG5214 Your praiseG5214.” 13And againG3825, “47I will putG3982 My trustG3982 in Him.” And againG3825, “48BeholdG2400, I and the childrenG3813 whomG3739 GodG2316 has givenG1325 Me.”

14ThereforeG3767, sinceG1893 the childrenG3813 shareG2841 in 4950fleshG4561 and bloodG129, 51He HimselfG846 likewiseG3898 alsoG2532 partookG3348 of the sameG846, soG2443 thatG2443 52throughG1223 deathG2288 He might destroyG2673 53the one who hasG2192 the powerG2904 of deathG2288, that is, the devilG1228, 15and freeG525 those whoG3745 through 54fearG5401 of deathG2288 were subjectG1777 to slaveryG1397 allG3956 their livesG2198. 16For clearlyG1222 He does not 55giveG1949 helpG1949 to angelsG32, but He givesG1949 helpG1949 to the 56descendantsG4690 of AbrahamG11. 17ThereforeG3606, in allG3956 thingsG3956 He 57hadG3784 58to be madeG3666 likeG3666 His brothersG80 soG2443 thatG2443 He might 59becomeG1096 a mercifulG1655 and faithfulG4103 60highG749 priestG749 in 61things pertainingG4314 to GodG2316, to 62makeG2433 63propitiationG2433 forG2433 the sinsG266 of the peopleG2992. 18For since He HimselfG846 was 6465temptedG3985 in that whichG3739 He has sufferedG3958, He is ableG1410 to comeG997 toG997 theG997 aidG997 of thoseG3588 who are 66temptedG3985.
