The Epistle to the Hebrews

Geneva Bible :: World English Bible Catholic

- Kapitel 2 -

1
Wherefore wee ought diligently to giue heede to the thinges which wee haue heard, lest at any time we runne out.
2
For if the worde spoken by Angels was stedfast, and euery transgression, and disobedience receiued a iust recompence of reward,
3
How shall we escape, if we neglect so great saluation, which at the first began to be preached by the Lord, and afterward was confirmed vnto vs by them that heard him,
4
God bearing witnes thereto, both with signes and wonders, and with diuers miracles, and gifts of the holy Ghost, according to his owne will?

Jesus like His Brothers

5
For he hath not put in subiection vnto the Angels the world to come, whereof we speake.
6
But one in a certaine place witnessed, saying, What is man, that thou shouldest bee mindefull of him? or the sonne of man, that thou wouldest consider him?
7
Thou madest him a litle inferiour to ye Angels: thou crownedst him with glory and honour, and hast set him aboue the workes of thine hands.
8
Thou hast put all things in subiection vnder his feete. And in that he hath put all things in subiection vnder him, he left nothing that should not be subiect vnto him. But we yet see not all things subdued vnto him,
9
But we see Iesus crowned with glory and honour, which was made litle inferiour to the Angels, through the suffering of death, that by Gods grace he might taste death for all men.
10
For it became him, for whome are all these thinges, and by whome are all these things, seeing that hee brought many children vnto glory, that he should consecrate the Prince of their saluation through afflictions.
11
For he that sanctifieth, and they which are sanctified, are all of one: wherefore he is not ashamed to call them brethren,
12
Saying, I will declare thy Name vnto my brethren: in the middes of the Church will I sing praises to thee.
13
And againe, I will put my trust in him. And againe, Beholde, here am I, and the children which God hath giuen me.
14
Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himselfe likewise tooke part with them, that hee might destroye through death, him that had the power of death, that is the deuil,
15
And that he might deliuer all them, which for feare of death were all their life time subiect to bondage.
16
For he in no sort tooke on him the Angels nature, but hee tooke on him the seede of Abraham.
17
Wherefore in all things it behoued him to be made like vnto his brethren, that hee might be mercifull, and a faithfull hie Priest in things concerning God, that he might make reconciliation for the sinnes of the people.
18
For in that he suffered, and was tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted.
1
Therefore we ought to pay greater attention to the things that were heard, lest perhaps we drift away.
2
For if the word spoken through angels proved steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just penalty,
3
how will we escape if we neglect so great a salvationwhich at the first having been spoken through the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard,
4
God also testifying with them, both by signs and wonders, by various works of power, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to his own will?

Jesus like His Brothers

5
For he didn’t subject the world to come, of which we speak, to angels.
6
But one has somewhere testified, saying,What is man, that you think of him? Or the son of man, that you care for him?
7
You made him a little lower than the angels. You crowned him with glory and honor.(a)
8
You have put all things in subjection under his feet.”(b) For in that he subjected all things to him, he left nothing that is not subject to him. But now we don’t yet see all things subjected to him.
9
But we see him who has been made a little lower than the angels, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that by the grace of God he should taste of death for everyone.
10
For it became him, for whom are all things and through whom are all things, in bringing many children to glory, to make the author of their salvation perfect through sufferings.
11
For both he who sanctifies and those who are sanctified are all from one, for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brothers,(c)
12
saying,I will declare your name to my brothers. Among the congregation I will sing your praise.”(d)
13
Again, “I will put my trust in him.” Again, “Behold, here I am with the children whom God has given me.”(e)
14
Since then the children have shared in flesh and blood, he also himself in the same way partook of the same, that through death he might bring to nothing him who had the power of death, that is, the devil,
15
and might deliver all of them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
16
For most certainly, he doesn’t give help to angels, but he gives help to the offspring(f) of Abraham.
17
Therefore he was obligated in all things to be made like his brothers, that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make atonement for the sins of the people.
18
For in that he himself has suffered being tempted, he is able to help those who are tempted.
