Hebrews 2:5-9
New King James Version
The Son Made Lower than Angels(A)
5 For He has not put (B)the world to come, of which we speak, in subjection to angels. 6 But one testified in a certain place, saying:
(C)“What is man that You are mindful of him,
Or the son of man that You take care of him?
7 You have made him [a]a little lower than the angels;
You have crowned him with glory and honor,
[b]And set him over the works of Your hands.
8 (D)You have put all things in subjection under his feet.”
For in that He put all in subjection under him, He left nothing that is not put under him. But now (E)we do not yet see all things put under him. 9 But we see Jesus, (F)who was made [c]a little lower than the angels, for the suffering of death (G)crowned with glory and honor, that He, by the grace of God, might taste death (H)for everyone.

Jesus Made Fully Human
5 It is not to angels that he has subjected the world to come, about which we are speaking. 6 But there is a place where someone(A) has testified:
“What is mankind that you are mindful of them,
a son of man that you care for him?(B)
7 You made them a little[a] lower than the angels;
you crowned them with glory and honor
8 and put everything under their feet.”[b][c](C)
In putting everything under them,[d] God left nothing that is not subject to them.[e] Yet at present we do not see everything subject to them.[f] 9 But we do see Jesus, who was made lower than the angels for a little while, now crowned with glory and honor(D) because he suffered death,(E) so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.(F)
