God’s Final Word in His Son
1 God, having (A)spoken long ago to the fathers in (B)the prophets in many portions and (C)in many ways, 2 [a](D)in these last days (E)spoke to us [b]in (F)His Son, whom He appointed (G)heir of all things, (H)through whom also He made the [c](I)worlds, 3 who is the radiance of His glory and the exact (J)representation of His nature, and [d](K)upholds all things by the word of His power; who, having accomplished (L)cleansing for sins, (M)sat down at the right hand of the (N)Majesty on high, 4 having become so much better than the angels, as He has inherited a more excellent (O)name than they.

Jesus, the Author of Salvation
5 For He did not subject to angels [a](A)the world to come, concerning which we are speaking. 6 But one has testified (B)somewhere, saying,
“(C)What is man, that You remember him?
Or the son of man, that You are concerned about him?
7 (D)You have made [b]him for a little while lower than the angels;
You have crowned him with glory and honor,
[c]And have appointed him over the works of Your hands;
8 (E)You 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 (F)we do not yet see all things subjected to him. 9 But we do see Him who was (G)made [d]for a little while lower than the angels—Jesus, (H)because of the suffering of death (I)crowned with glory and honor, so that (J)by the grace of God He might (K)taste death (L)for everyone.
10 For (M)it was fitting for Him, (N)for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to (O)perfect the [e](P)author of their salvation through sufferings. 11 For both He who (Q)sanctifies and those who (R)are being sanctified are all (S)of One; for which reason He is not ashamed to call them (T)brothers, 12 saying,
“(U)I will recount Your name to My brothers,
In the midst of the assembly I will sing Your praise.”
