For this reason we must pay much closer attention to ^(F1)what we have heard, so that ^(C1)we do not drift away from it.

For if the word ^(C1)spoken through ^(C2)angels proved ^(F1)unalterable, and ^(C3)every violation and act of disobedience received a just ^(F2)(C4)punishment,

^(C1)how will we escape if we neglect so great a ^(C2)salvation? ^(F1)After it was at first ^(C3)spoken through the Lord, it was ^(C4)confirmed to us by those who heard,

God also testifying with them, both by ^(C1)signs and wonders, and by ^(C2)various ^(F1)miracles and by ^(F2)(C3)gifts of the Holy Spirit ^(C4)according to His own will.

For He did not subject to angels ^(F1)(C1)the world to come, about which we are speaking.

But someone has testified ^(C1)somewhere, saying, "^(C2)WHAT IS MAN, THAT YOU THINK OF HIM? OR A SON OF MAN, THAT YOU ARE CONCERNED ABOUT HIM?

-"^(C1)YOU HAVE MADE HIM ^(F1)FOR A LITTLE WHILE LOWER THAN ANGELS; YOU HAVE CROWNED HIM WITH GLORY AND HONOR^(F2);

^(C1)YOU HAVE PUT EVERYTHING IN SUBJECTION UNDER HIS FEET." For in subjecting all things to him, He left nothing that is not subject to him. But now ^(C2)we do not yet see all things subjected to him.

But we do see Him who was ^(C1)made ^(F1)for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus, ^(C2)because of His suffering death ^(C3)crowned with glory and honor, so that ^(C4)by the grace of God He might ^(C5)taste death ^(C6)for everyone.

For ^(C1)it was fitting for Him, ^(C2)for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to ^(C3)perfect the ^(F1)(C4)originator of their salvation through sufferings.

For both He who ^(C1)sanctifies and those who ^(C2)are ^(F1)sanctified are all ^(C3)from one Father; for this reason He is not ashamed to call them ^(C4)brothers and sisters,

saying, "^(C1)I WILL PROCLAIM YOUR NAME TO MY BROTHERS, IN THE MIDST OF THE ASSEMBLY I WILL SING YOUR PRAISE."

And again, "^(C1)I WILL PUT MY TRUST IN HIM." And again, "^(C2)BEHOLD, I AND THE CHILDREN WHOM GOD HAS GIVEN ME."

Therefore, since the children share in ^(F1)(C1)flesh and blood, ^(C2)He Himself likewise also partook of the same, so that ^(C3)through death He might destroy ^(C4)the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil,

and free those who through ^(C1)fear of death were subject to slavery all their lives.

For clearly He does not ^(F1)give help to angels, but He gives help to the ^(F2)descendants of Abraham.

Therefore, in all things He ^(F1)had ^(C1)to be made like His brothers so that He might ^(C2)become a merciful and faithful ^(C3)high priest in ^(C4)things pertaining to God, to ^(C5)make ^(F2)propitiation for the sins of the people.

For since He Himself was ^(F1)(C1)tempted in that which He has suffered, He is able to come to the aid of those who are ^(F1)tempted.
