1 For this reason, it is necessary for us to observe more thoroughly the things that we have heard, lest we let them slip away. 2 For if a word that was spoken through the Angels has been made firm, and every transgression and disobedience has received the recompense of a just retribution, 3 in what way might we escape, if we neglect such a great salvation? For though initially it had begun to be described by the Lord, it was confirmed among us by those who heard him, 4 with God testifying to it by signs and wonders, and by various miracles, and by the pouring out of the Holy Spirit, in accord with his own will. 5 For God did not subject the future world, about which we are speaking, to the Angels. 6 But someone, in a certain place, has testified, saying: “What is man, that you are mindful of him, or the Son of man, that you visit him? 7 You have reduced him to a little less than the Angels. You have crowned him with glory and honor, and you have set him over the works of your hands. Hebrews 2:1-7, Catholic Public Domain Version. Public domain.
