Therefore We Must Pay More Attention To What God Said Through His Son

2 For this reason^[a], we must pay more attention to the things having been heard, that we may not-ever drift-away. ² For if the word having been spoken through angels proved-to-be firm, and every transgression and disobedience received a just penalty, ³ how shall we escape, having neglected^[b] so great a salvation?— which, having begun to be spoken by the Lord, was confirmed to^[c] us by the ones having heard, ⁴ God testifying-with both signs and wonders and various miracles and distributions of the Holy Spirit according to His will.

For The Coming World Is Subject To Jesus, Who Tasted Death For All And Was Crowned

⁵ For He^[d] did not subject to angels the coming world concerning which we are speaking. ⁶ But one solemnly-testified somewhere saying, “What is man that You remember^[e] him, or the son^[f] of man that You look-after him? ⁷ You made him lower^[g] than angels for a little^[h] while. You crowned him with glory and honor. ⁸ You subjected all things under his feet” [Ps 8:4-6]. For^[i] in the subjecting all things to him, He left nothing not-subject to him. But now we do not yet see all things having been subjected to him. ⁹ But^[j] we see the One having been made lower than angels for a little while— Jesus— having been crowned with glory and honor because-of the suffering of the death, so-that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone.
