\subsection{Hebrews 2}
\VS{1} Because of this it is far more necessary we be paying heed to what was 
heard, lest we slip away. 
\VS{2} For if the word spoken through angels 
became established, and every transgression and disobedience received just 
recompense, 
\VS{3} how will be being neglectful escape so great [a] 
deliverance, whose beginning we took to be spoken through the Lord, by those 
having heard to us it has been established, 
\VS{4} God testifying at the 
same time with signs and wonders and various powers and with distributions 
of the Holy Spirit according to his will?

\VS{5} For he has not subjected the impending inhabited-world to angels, 
concerning which we speak. 
\VS{6} But someone testified somewhere saying,

\begin{verse}
What is man that you remember him? \\
Or the son of man that you look after him? \\
\VS{7} You have made him less, less beside the angels, \\
With glory and honor you crowned him, \\
\VS{8} You subjected everything under his feet.
\end{verse}

For in subjecting everything he allowed nothing to not be subject to him. 
But now we do not yet see everything subject to him. 
\VS{9} But the ``Less, 
less beside the angels having been made" we see Jesus having been crowned 
with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, in order that by 
God's grace he taste death in behalf of all. 
\VS{10} For it was fitting for 
him, because of whom [is] everything and through whom [is] everything, having led 
many sons to glory, the prince of their deliverance, to be 
completed\footnote{or ``perfected''} through sufferings. 
\VS{11} For who 
makes holy and those being holy [are] all out of one [thing], through which cause he was not being ashamed to calling them brothers, 
\VS{12} saying,

\begin{verse}
I will proclaim your name to my brothers, \\
In the midst of the assembly\fnEkklhsia{} will I sing praise [of you].
\end{verse}

\VS{13} And again:

\begin{verse}
I will be confident in him.
\end{verse}

And again:

\begin{verse}
Behold I and the children which God gave to me.
\end{verse}

\VS{14} Since therefore the children have shared blood and flesh, and he 
similarly participated in theirs, in order that through death he make 
ineffective the [one] having the strength of death --- this is the devil --- 
\VS{15} and deliver them, how much by fear of death through all their zoe-life\fnZoe{} 
were they subject to slavery. 
\VS{16} For certainly not with angels was he 
concerned, but he is concerned with the seed of Abraham. 
\VS{17} Wherefore 
he ought, according to all, be likened to his brothers, in order that he 
become [a] merciful and trustworthy chief-priest of the [things] towards God, for 
conciliating the sins of the people. 
\VS{18} For in what he himself suffered 
when he was tested, he is able for those being tested to be help.
