1 - Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let [them] slip.

2 - For if the word spoken by angels was steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompense of reward;

3 - How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed to us by them that heard [him];

4 - God also bearing [them] testimony, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to his own will?

5 - For to the angels he hath not put in subjection the world to come, concerning which we speak.

6 - But one in a certain place testified, saying, What is man, that thou art mindful of him? or the son of man, that thou visitest him?

7 - Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownedst him with glory and honor, and didst set him over the works of thy hands:

8 - Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing [that is] not made subject to him. But now we see not yet all things subjected to him.

9 - But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honor; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.

10 - For it became him, for whom [are] all things, and by whom [are] all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the Captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.

11 - For both he that sanctifieth, and they who are sanctified, [are] all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,

12 - Saying, I will declare thy name to my brethren, in the midst of the church will I sing praise to thee.

13 - And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold, I, and the children which God hath given me.

14 - Since then the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;

15 - And deliver them, who, through fear of death, were all their life-time subject to bondage.

16 - For verily he took not on [him the nature of] angels; but he took on [him] the seed of Abraham.

17 - Wherefore in all things it behooved him to be made like [his] brethren; that he might be a merciful and faithful High Priest in things [pertaining] to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.

18 - For in that he himself hath suffered, being tempted, he is able to succor them that are tempted.
