1 FOR this reason we ought to attend more diligently to the things which have been heard, lest by any means we let them flow by us. 2 For if the discourse spoken by angels was confirmed, and every transgression and disobedience received a just punishment as its due, 3 how shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation, which, commencing at the beginning to be spoken by the Lord, was confirmed unto us by those who had heard him; 4 God superadding his testimony with them, by signs, and wonders, and various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will? 5 For he hath not subjected the future world, of which we are speaking, to the angels. 6 But one in a certain passage testifieth, saying, ?What is man, that thou rememberest him, or a son of man, that thou regardest him?? 7 ?Thou hast made him for a little while lower than angels, thou hast crowned him with glory and honour, and hast placed him over the works of thy hands: Hebrews 2:1-7, Haweis New Testament.
