Hebrews 2:1-8 ▼

1 For this reason we must pay closer attention to the things we have heard, or we may drift away,

2 because if the message spoken by angels was reliable, and every violation and act of disobedience received its just punishment,

3 how will we escape if we neglect a salvation as great as this? It was first proclaimed by the Lord himself, and then it was confirmed to us by those who heard him,

4 while God added his testimony through signs, wonders, various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his will.

5 For he did not put the coming world we are talking about under the control of angels.

6 Instead, someone has declared somewhere, |What is man that you should remember him, or the son of man that you should care for him?

7 You made him a little lower than the angels, yet you crowned him with glory and honor

8 and put everything under his feet.| Now when God put everything under him, he left nothing outside his control. However, at the present time we do not yet see everything put under him.
