Warning Not To Neglect Salvation
1 Therefore it behooves us the more earnestly to give heed to the things which we have heard, lest at some time we may leak out.
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.
1 For this reason we must pay much closer attention to (a)what we have heard, so that (A)we do not drift away from it.
1 We must, therefore, pay even more attention to what we have heard, so that we will not drift away.
1 For this reason we must pay closer attention to the things we have heard, or we may drift away,
2 For if the word having been spoken by angels was stedfast, and every disobedience and transgression received a just recompense of reward;
2 For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompence of reward;
2 For if the word (B)spoken through (C)angels proved (b)unalterable, and (D)every transgression and disobedience received a just (c)(E)penalty,
2 For if the message spoken through angels was legally binding(a)(A) and every transgression and disobedience received a just punishment,(B)
2 because if the message spoken by angels was reliable, and every violation and act of disobedience received its just punishment,
3 how shall we escape, having neglected so great a salvation? which having received the beginning to be spoken by the Lord, was confirmed unto us by those who heard it;
3 How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him;
3 (F)how will we escape if we neglect so great a (G)salvation? (d)After it was at the first (H)spoken through the Lord, it was (I)confirmed to us by those who heard,
3 how will we escape if we neglect such a great salvation? It was first spoken by the Lord and was confirmed to us by those who heard Him.(C)
3 how will we escape if we neglect a salvation as great as this? It was first proclaimed by the Lord himself, and then it was confirmed to us by those who heard him,

The Son's Humiliation And Suffering
5 For he did not submit the world to come, concerning which we speak, to angels.
5 For unto the angels hath he not put in subjection the world to come, whereof we speak.
5 For He has not subjected to angels the world to come that we are talking about.
5 For he did not put the coming world we are talking about under the control of angels.
6 But somewhere one testified, saying, What is man, that thou art mindful of him? Or the Son of man, that thou visitest him?
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?
6 But one has testified (O)somewhere, saying,“(P)What is man, that You remember him?Or the son of man, that You are concerned about him?
6 But one has somewhere testified:What is man that You remember him,or the son of man that You care for him?
6 Instead, someone has declared somewhere, "What is man that you should remember him, or the son of man that you should care for him?
7 Thou didst humiliate him somewhat comparatively with the angels; thou didst crown him with glory and honor;
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 thy hands:
7 “(Q)You have made him (h)for a little while lower than the angels;You have crowned him with glory and honor,(i)And have appointed him over the works of Your hands;
7 You made him a little lower than the angels, yet you crowned him with glory and honor
8 thou didst subordinate all things beneath his feet. For in subordinating all things beneath him, he left nothing which is not subordinated beneath him.
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 not yet all things put under him.
8 (R)You have put all things in subjection under his feet.”For in subjecting all things to him, He left nothing that is not subject to him. But now (S)we do not yet see all things subjected to him.
8 and subjected everything under his feet.(c)For in subjecting everything to him, He left nothing that is not subject to him. As it is, we do not yet see everything subjected to him.(E)
8 and put everything under his feet."
9 But we see Jesus humiliated somewhat in comparison with the angels, having been crowned with glory and honor on account of the suffering of death, in order that by the grace of God he might taste death for every one.
9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.
9 But we do see Him who was (T)made (j)for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus, (U)because of the suffering of death (V)crowned with glory and honor, so that (W)by the grace of God He might (X)taste death (Y)for everyone.
9 But we do see Jesus—made lower than the angels for a short time so that by God’s grace He might taste death for everyone—crowned with glory and honor(F) because of His suffering in death.(G)
9 Now when God put everything under him, he left nothing outside his control. However, at the present time we do not yet see everything put under him. But we do see someone who was made a little lower than the angels. He is Jesus, who is crowned with glory and honor because he suffered death, so that by the grace of God he might experience death for everyone.

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.
10 For (Z)it was fitting for Him, (AA)for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to (AB)perfect the (k)(AC)author of their salvation through sufferings.
10 For in bringing many sons to glory, it was entirely appropriate that God—all things exist for Him and through Him—should make the source(d) of their salvation perfect through sufferings.(H)
10 It was fitting that God, for whom and through whom everything exists, should make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through suffering as part of his plan to glorify many children,
Jesus Became One Of Us To Help Us
11 For both the one sanctifying and they who are sanctified are all of one: on account of which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,
11 For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,
11 For both He who (AD)sanctifies and those who (AE)are (l)sanctified are all (AF)from one Father; for which reason He is not ashamed to call them (AG)brethren,

13 And again, "I will trust him." And again, "I am here with the children God has given me."
14 Then since the children have inherited blood and flesh, he likewise also received the same, in order that through death he might set at nought him who has the power of death, that is, the devil;
14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;
14 Therefore, since the children share in (m)(AK)flesh and blood, (AL)He Himself likewise also partook of the same, that (AM)through death He might render powerless (AN)him who had the power of death, that is, the devil,
14 Now since the children have flesh and blood in common, Jesus also shared in these, so that through His death He might destroy the one holding the power of death—that is, the Devil(L)—
14 Therefore, since the children have flesh and blood, he himself also shared the same things, so that by his death he might destroy the one who has the power of death (that is, the Devil)
16 For not yet does he take upon himself the nature of angels, but he takes upon himself the seed of Abraham.
16 For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham.
16 For assuredly He does not (n)give help to angels, but He gives help to the (o)descendant of Abraham.
16 For it is clear that He does not reach out to help angels, but to help Abraham’s offspring.
16 For it is clear that he did not come to help angels. No, he came to help Abraham's descendants,

17 Therefore, He had to be like His brothers in every way, so that He could become a merciful and faithful high priest in service(i) to God, to make propitiation(N) for the sins of the people.(O)
17 thereby becoming like his brothers in every way, so that he could be a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God and could atone for the people's sins.
18 For in that he himself suffered being tempted, he is able to succor those who are tempted.
