⁹ But we see Jesus, ^(A)who was made ^[a]a little lower than the angels, for the suffering of death ^(B)crowned with glory and honor, that He, by the grace of God, might taste death ^(C)for everyone.

²⁶ Then God said, ^(A)“Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; ^(B)let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over ^[a]all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” ²⁷ So God created man ^(C)in His own image; in the image of God He created him; ^(D)male and female He created them.

¹⁶ For indeed He does not ^[a]give aid to angels, but He does ^[b]give aid to the seed of Abraham.

^20 (A)He indeed was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was ^[a]manifest ^(B)in these last times for you ²¹ who through Him believe in God, ^(C)who raised Him from the dead and ^(D)gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.

^7 (A)but ^[a]made Himself of no reputation, taking the form ^(B)of a bondservant, and ^(C)coming in the likeness of men. ⁸ And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and ^(D)became ^(E)obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. ^9 (F)Therefore God also ^(G)has highly exalted Him and ^(H)given Him the name which is above every name, ^10 (I)that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, ¹¹ and ^(J)that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

^21 (A)far above all ^(B)principality^[a] and ^[b]power and ^[c]might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.
