Hebrews

Chapter 2

The Glorious Humanity of Jesus Christ

Danger of Drifting

• 1. THEREFORE we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip.
  
  • Greek
    • Διὰ τοῦτο δεῖ περισσοτέρως ἡμᾶς προσέχειν τοῖς ἀκουσθεῖσιν μήποτε παραρρυῶμεν
• 2. For if the word spoken by angels was steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompence of reward;
  
  • Greek
    • εἰ γὰρ ὁ δι᾽ ἀγγέλων λαληθεὶς λόγος ἐγένετο βέβαιος καὶ πᾶσα παράβασις καὶ παρακοὴ ἔλαβεν ἔνδικον μισθαποδοσίαν
• 3. How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salavation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him;
  
  • Greek
    • πῶς ἡμεῖς ἐκφευξόμεθα τηλικαύτης ἀμελήσαντες σωτηρίας ἥτις ἀρχὴν λαβοῦσα λαλεῖσθαι διὰ τοῦ κυρίου ὑπὸ τῶν ἀκουσάντων εἰς ἡμᾶς ἐβεβαιώθη
• 4. God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?
  
  • Greek
    • συνεπιμαρτυροῦντος τοῦ θεοῦ σημείοις τε καὶ τέρασιν καὶ ποικίλαις δυνάμεσιν καὶ πνεύματος ἁγίου μερισμοῖς κατὰ τὴν αὐτοῦ θέλησιν

Earth's Subjection to Man

• 5. For unto the angels hath he not put in subjection the world to come, whereof we speak.
  
  • Greek
    • Οὐ γὰρ ἀγγέλοις ὑπέταξεν τὴν οἰκουμένην τὴν μέλλουσαν περὶ ἡς λαλοῦμεν
• 6. But one in a certain place testified, saying, What is man, that thou art mindful of him? or the son of man, that thou visitest him?
  
  • Greek
    • διεμαρτύρατο δέ πού τις λέγων, Τί ἐστιν ἄνθρωπος ὅτι μιμνῄσκῃ αὐτοῦ ἢ υἱὸς ἀνθρώπου ὅτι ἐπισκέπτῃ αὐτόν
• 7. Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownedst him with glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of they hands:
  
  • Greek
    • ἠλάττωσας αὐτὸν βραχύ τι παρ᾽ ἀγγέλους δόξῃ καὶ τιμῇ ἐστεφάνωσας αὐτόν καὶ κατέστησας αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τὰ ἔργα τῶν χειρῶν σου·
• 8. Thou hast 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 we see now yet all things put under him.
  
  • Greek
    • πάντα ὑπέταξας ὑποκάτω τῶν ποδῶν αὐτοῦ ἐν γὰρ τῷ ὑποτάξαι αὐτῷ τὰ πάντα οὐδὲν ἀφῆκεν αὐτῷ ἀνυπότακτον νῦν δὲ οὔπω ὁρῶμεν αὐτῷ τὰ πάντα ὑποτεταγμένα·

Jesus' Humanity

• 9. But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than th angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.
  
  • Greek
    • τὸν δὲ βραχύ τι παρ᾽ ἀγγέλους ἠλαττωμένον βλέπομεν Ἰησοῦν διὰ τὸ πάθημα τοῦ θανάτου δόξῃ καὶ τιμῇ ἐστεφανωμένον ὅπως χάριτι θεοῦ ὑπὲρ παντὸς γεύσηται θανάτου
• 10. For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.
  
  • Greek
    • Ἔπρεπεν γὰρ αὐτῷ δι᾽ ὃν τὰ πάντα καὶ δι᾽ οὗ τὰ πάντα πολλοὺς υἱοὺς εἰς δόξαν ἀγαγόντα τὸν ἀρχηγὸν τῆς σωτηρίας αὐτῶν διὰ παθημάτων τελειῶσαι
• 11. For both he that sanctified and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,
  
  • Greek
    • ὁ τε γὰρ ἁγιάζων καὶ οἱ ἁγιαζόμενοι ἐξ ἑνὸς πάντες· δι᾽ ἣν αἰτίαν οὐκ ἐπαισχύνεται ἀδελφοὺς αὐτοὺς καλεῖν
• 12. Saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the church will I sing praise unto thee.
  
  • Greek
    • λέγων, Ἀπαγγελῶ τὸ ὄνομά σου τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς μου ἐν μέσῳ ἐκκλησίας ὑμνήσω σε
• 13. And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the children which God hat given me.
  
  • Greek
    • καὶ πάλιν Ἐγὼ ἔσομαι πεποιθὼς ἐπ᾽ αὐτῷ καὶ πάλιν Ἰδού, ἐγὼ καὶ τὰ παιδία ἅ μοι ἔδωκεν ὁ θεός
