Hebrews 2:5-18

New American Standard Bible

Earth Subject to Man

⁵ For He did not subject to angels ^[a](A)the world to come, about which we are speaking. ⁶ But someone has testified ^(B)somewhere, saying,

For in subjecting all things to him, He left nothing that is not subject to him. But now ^(F)we do not yet see all things subjected to him.

Jesus Briefly Humbled

⁹ But we do see Him who was ^(G)made ^[d]for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus, ^(H)because of His suffering death ^(I)crowned with glory and honor, so that ^(J)by the grace of God He might ^(K)taste death ^(L)for everyone.

¹⁰ For ^(M)it was fitting for Him, ^(N)for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to ^(O)perfect the ^[e](P)originator of their salvation through sufferings. ¹¹ For both He who ^(Q)sanctifies and those who ^(R)are ^[f]sanctified are all ^(S)from one Father; for this reason He is not ashamed to call them ^(T)brothers and sisters, ¹² saying,

¹³ And again,

And again,

¹⁴ Therefore, since the children share in ^[g](X)flesh and blood, ^(Y)He Himself likewise also partook of the same, so that ^(Z)through death He might destroy ^(AA)the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil, ¹⁵ and free those who through ^(AB)fear of death were subject to slavery all their lives. ¹⁶ For clearly He does not ^[h]give help to angels, but He gives help to the ^[i]descendants of Abraham. ¹⁷ Therefore, in all things He ^[j]had ^(AC)to be made like His brothers so that He might ^(AD)become a merciful and faithful ^(AE)high priest in ^(AF)things pertaining to God, to ^(AG)make ^[k]propitiation for the sins of the people. ¹⁸ For since He Himself was ^[l](AH)tempted in that which He has suffered, He is able to come to the aid of those who are ^[m]tempted.
