Hébreux 2
Louis Segond
2 C'est pourquoi nous devons d'autant plus nous attacher aux choses que nous avons entendues, de peur que nous ne soyons emportés loin d'elles.
2 Car, si la parole annoncée par des anges a eu son effet, et si toute transgression et toute désobéissance a reçu une juste rétribution,
3 comment échapperons-nous en négligeant un si grand salut, qui, annoncé d'abord par le Seigneur, nous a été confirmé par ceux qui l'ont entendu,
4 Dieu appuyant leur témoignage par des signes, des prodiges, et divers miracles, et par les dons du Saint Esprit distribués selon sa volonté.
5 En effet, ce n'est pas à des anges que Dieu a soumis le monde à venir dont nous parlons.
6 Or quelqu'un a rendu quelque part ce témoignage: Qu'est-ce que l'homme, pour que tu te souviennes de lui, Ou le fils de l'homme, pour que tu prennes soin de lui?
7 Tu l'as abaissé pour un peu de temps au-dessous des anges, Tu l'as couronné de gloire et d'honneur,
8 Tu as mis toutes choses sous ses pieds. En effet, en lui soumettant toutes choses, Dieu n'a rien laissé qui ne lui fût soumis. Cependant, nous ne voyons pas encore maintenant que toutes choses lui soient soumises.
9 Mais celui qui a été abaissé pour un peu de temps au-dessous des anges, Jésus, nous le voyons couronné de gloire et d'honneur à cause de la mort qu'il a soufferte, afin que, par la grâce de Dieu, il souffrît la mort pour tous.
10 Il convenait, en effet, que celui pour qui et par qui sont toutes choses, et qui voulait conduire à la gloire beaucoup de fils, élevât à la perfection par les souffrances le Prince de leur salut.
11 Car celui qui sanctifie et ceux qui sont sanctifiés sont tous issus d'un seul. C'est pourquoi il n'a pas honte de les appeler frères,
12 lorsqu'il dit: J'annoncerai ton nom à mes frères, Je te célébrerai au milieu de l'assemblée.
13 Et encore: Je me confierai en toi. Et encore: Me voici, moi et les enfants que Dieu m'a donnés.
14 Ainsi donc, puisque les enfants participent au sang et à la chair, il y a également participé lui-même, afin que, par la mort, il anéantît celui qui a la puissance de la mort, c'est à dire le diable,
15 et qu'il délivrât tous ceux qui, par crainte de la mort, étaient toute leur vie retenus dans la servitude.
16 Car assurément ce n'est pas à des anges qu'il vient en aide, mais c'est à la postérité d'Abraham.
17 En conséquence, il a dû être rendu semblable en toutes choses à ses frères, afin qu'il fût un souverain sacrificateur miséricordieux et fidèle dans le service de Dieu, pour faire l'expiation des péchés du peuple;
18 car, ayant été tenté lui-même dans ce qu'il a souffert, il peut secourir ceux qui sont tentés.
Hebrews 2
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
Warning to Pay Attention
2 Therefore we must pay greater attention to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away from it. 2 For if the message declared through angels was valid, and every transgression or disobedience received a just penalty, 3 how can we escape if we neglect so great a salvation? It was declared at first through the Lord, and it was attested to us by those who heard him, 4 while God added his testimony by signs and wonders and various miracles, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit, distributed according to his will.
Exaltation through Abasement
5 Now God[a] did not subject the coming world, about which we are speaking, to angels. 6 But someone has testified somewhere,
“What are human beings that you are mindful of them,[b]
or mortals, that you care for them?[c]
7 You have made them for a little while lower[d] than the angels;
you have crowned them with glory and honor,[e]
8 subjecting all things under their feet.”
Now in subjecting all things to them, God[f] left nothing outside their control. As it is, we do not yet see everything in subjection to them, 9 but we do see Jesus, who for a little while was made lower[g] than the angels, now crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God[h] he might taste death for everyone.
10 It was fitting that God,[i] for whom and through whom all things exist, in bringing many children to glory, should make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through sufferings. 11 For the one who sanctifies and those who are sanctified all have one Father.[j] For this reason Jesus[k] is not ashamed to call them brothers and sisters,[l] 12 saying,
“I will proclaim your name to my brothers and sisters,[m]
in the midst of the congregation I will praise you.”
13 And again,
“I will put my trust in him.”
And again,
“Here am I and the children whom God has given me.”
14 Since, therefore, the children share flesh and blood, he himself likewise shared the same things, so that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil, 15 and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by the fear of death. 16 For it is clear that he did not come to help angels, but the descendants of Abraham. 17 Therefore he had to become like his brothers and sisters[n] in every respect, so that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make a sacrifice of atonement for the sins of the people. 18 Because he himself was tested by what he suffered, he is able to help those who are being tested.

New International Version
Warning to Pay Attention
2 We must pay the most careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away.(A) 2 For since the message spoken(B) through angels(C) was binding, and every violation and disobedience received its just punishment,(D) 3 how shall we escape if we ignore so great a salvation?(E) This salvation, which was first announced by the Lord,(F) was confirmed to us by those who heard him.(G) 4 God also testified to it by signs, wonders and various miracles,(H) and by gifts of the Holy Spirit(I) distributed according to his will.(J)
Jesus Made Fully Human
5 It is not to angels that he has subjected the world to come, about which we are speaking. 6 But there is a place where someone(K) has testified:
“What is mankind that you are mindful of them,
a son of man that you care for him?(L)
7 You made them a little[a] lower than the angels;
you crowned them with glory and honor
8 and put everything under their feet.”[b][c](M)
In putting everything under them,[d] God left nothing that is not subject to them.[e] Yet at present we do not see everything subject to them.[f] 9 But we do see Jesus, who was made lower than the angels for a little while, now crowned with glory and honor(N) because he suffered death,(O) so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.(P)
10 In bringing many sons and daughters to glory, it was fitting that God, for whom and through whom everything exists,(Q) should make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through what he suffered.(R) 11 Both the one who makes people holy(S) and those who are made holy(T) are of the same family. So Jesus is not ashamed to call them brothers and sisters.[g](U) 12 He says,
“I will declare your name to my brothers and sisters;
in the assembly I will sing your praises.”[h](V)
13 And again,
And again he says,
14 Since the children have flesh and blood,(Y) he too shared in their humanity(Z) so that by his death he might break the power(AA) of him who holds the power of death—that is, the devil(AB)— 15 and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear(AC) of death. 16 For surely it is not angels he helps, but Abraham’s descendants.(AD) 17 For this reason he had to be made like them,[k](AE) fully human in every way, in order that he might become a merciful(AF) and faithful high priest(AG) in service to God,(AH) and that he might make atonement for the sins of the people.(AI) 18 Because he himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted.(AJ)
