Hebrews 2:5-12

New International Version

Jesus Made Fully Human

⁵It is not to angels that he has subjected the world to come, about which we are speaking. ⁶But there is a place where someone^(A) has testified:

“What is mankind that you are mindful of them,
    a son of man that you care for him?^(B)
⁷You 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]^(C)

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] ⁹But we do see Jesus, who was made lower than the angels for a little while, now crowned with glory and honor^(D) because he suffered death,^(E) so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.^(F)

¹⁰In bringing many sons and daughters to glory, it was fitting that God, for whom and through whom everything exists,^(G) should make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through what he suffered.^(H) ¹¹Both the one who makes people holy^(I) and those who are made holy^(J) are of the same family. So Jesus is not ashamed to call them brothers and sisters.^[g]^(K) ¹²He says,

“I will declare your name to my brothers and sisters;
in the assembly I will sing your praises.”^[h]^(L)

New International Version

Jesus Drives Out an Impure Spirit^(A)

²¹They went to Capernaum, and when the Sabbath came, Jesus went into the synagogue and began to teach.^(B) ²²The people were amazed at his teaching, because he taught them as one who had authority, not as the teachers of the law.^(C) ²³Just then a man in their synagogue who was possessed by an impure spirit cried out, ²⁴“What do you want with us,^(D) Jesus of Nazareth?^(E) Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God!”^(F)

²⁵“Be quiet!” said Jesus sternly. “Come out of him!”^(G) ²⁶The impure spirit shook the man violently and came out of him with a shriek.^(H)

²⁷The people were all so amazed^(I) that they asked each other, “What is this? A new teaching—and with authority! He even gives orders to impure spirits and they obey him.” ²⁸News about him spread quickly over the whole region^(J) of Galilee.
