And again, when God sent the Firstborn One [i.e., Jesus. See Rom. 8:29; Col. 1:15, 18; Rev. 1:5] into the world, He said [Deut. 32:43 LXX], "And all of God's angels should worship Him."
But God says [this] about the Son [Psa. 97:7], "Your throne [i.e. kingdom], O God [Note: This term here is applied to Jesus], will last forever and ever, and righteousness will be the scepter [i.e., the standard for ruling] of your kingdom.
You made him a little bit lower than the angels [i.e., a little less exalted]. [Note: Although these Psalms passages referred to mankind, they are here applied to Jesus. See verse 9]. You crowned him with splendor and honor {{some ancient manuscripts add "and placed him as ruler over what you made"}}.
You placed everything under his feet [Note: This is true of both mankind (Gen. 1:26-28) and of Jesus (Eph. 1:22-23)]. For in subjecting everything to him, God did not leave anything that is not subject to him. But at the present time we do not see what all has been subjected to him.
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.
For it was fitting that God, for whom and through whom everything exists, in order to lead many [of His] children to glory [i.e., heaven], would make the author [or, pioneer] of their salvation [i.e., Jesus] completely [qualified] through [His] sufferings.
because both the one who sanctifies and those who are being sanctified all have the same Father. That is why Jesus is not ashamed to call them brothers
Therefore since these children referred to have the same mortal nature, Jesus also shared it, like them, in order that by his death he might dethrone the lord of death, the devil,
It was not, surely, to the help of the angels that Jesus came, but 'to the help of the descendants of Abraham.'
Therefore, holy brothers, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Jesus;
Jesus, Faithful to him that appointed him, as was also Moses in all his house.
Jesus has been counted worthy of greater glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who has built a house has higher honor than the house itself.
For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.
Having then a great high priest, who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold tightly to our confession.
For we do not have a head priest who is incapable of sympathizing with our weaknesses, but One [i.e., Jesus] who has been tempted in every way that we have, and yet without sinning.
In the days of his flesh, with better cries and weeping Jesus offered up prayers and supplications to Him who was able to save him out of death; and he was heard because of his devout submission.
where as a forerunner Jesus entered for us, having become a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.
For it is declared [about Jesus in the Scriptures, Psa. 110:4], "You are a priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek."
And in proportion as Jesus was not appointed priest without God's making oath to it,
but Jesus became a priest with an oath when God told him, "The Lord has taken an oath and will not change his mind. You are a priest forever."
By so much, Jesus has become the guarantor of a better covenant.
But because Jesus lives forever, he has a permanent priesthood.
For Jesus was a very suitable head priest for us [i.e., He meets our needs very well], because He was holy, innocent, without [moral] corruption, separated from sinners and [exalted] above the heavens.
For every head priest [on earth] is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices, so it is necessary that this Head Priest [i.e., Jesus] also have something to offer.
But Jesus has obtained a better ministry, by so much as he is also Mediator of a better covenant, which has been enacted upon better promises.
by which will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
But when Jesus had made one offering for sins for ever, he took his place at the right hand of God;
Having therefore, brothers, boldness to enter into the holy place by the blood of Jesus,
But
Wherefore, seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which easily besetteth us, and run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking to Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith;
looking to Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, disregarding its shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Now think about how Jesus endured such opposition against Himself from sinners, so that you do not grow weary and become discouraged [yourself].
to Jesus, the mediator of a New Covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better than that of Abel.
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Therefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people through his own blood, suffered outside of the gate.
Let our sacrifice then, which we are to offer to God by Jesus Christ, be that of incessant praises, the offering of our lips, which celebrate his name:
Now may the God of peace, who brought again from the dead the great shepherd of the sheep with the blood of an eternal covenant, our Lord Jesus,
make you complete in every good thing to do his will, working in us that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever. Amen.

But, Jesus, said unto him - Friend! wherefore art thou here? Then, coming forward, they thrust their hands upon Jesus, and secured him.
and, departing, he conversed with the High-priests and Captains, as to how, unto them, he might deliver him up. And they rejoiced, and bargained with him to give him, silver; and he freely consented, and began seeking a good opportunity for delivering him up, in the absence of a multitude, unto them.
Jesus, therefore, knowing all the things coming upon him, went forth, and saith unto them - Whom, seek ye? They answered him - Jesus, the Nazarene. He saith unto them - I, am he. Now Judas also, who was delivering him up, was standing with them.
They answered him - Jesus, the Nazarene. He saith unto them - I, am he. Now Judas also, who was delivering him up, was standing with them.
And it became known unto all them who were dwelling in Jerusalem, so that that field was called, in their language, Akeldama, that is, Field of Blood. - For it is written in the book of Psalms: Let his encampment become desolate, and let there be none to dwell therein!

And they appointed two, - Joseph, called Barsabbas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.

But, Jesus, said unto him - Friend! wherefore art thou here? Then, coming forward, they thrust their hands upon Jesus, and secured him. And lo! one of those with Jesus, stretching forth his hand, grasped his sword, and smiting the servant of the High-priest, cut off his ear. Then, Jesus saith unto him - Put back thy sword into its place, for, all they who take a sword, by a sword, shall perish. Or thinkest thou that I cannot call upon my Father, and he will set near me, even now, more than twelve legions of messengers? How then should the Scriptures be fulfilled, that, thus, it must needs come to pass? In that hour, said Jesus unto the multitudes: As against a robber, came ye forth, with swords and clubs, to arrest me? Daily in the temple, used I to sit teaching, and ye secured me not; But, this, hath, wholly, come to pass, that, the Scriptures of the prophets, may be fulfilled. Then, the disciples, all forsaking him, fled. And, they who secured Jesus, led him away unto Caiaphas the High-priest, where the Scribes and the Elders gathered themselves together. Now, Peter, was following him afar off, unto the court of the High-priest, - and, entering within, was sitting with the attendants, to see the end. Now, the High-priests and all the High-council, were seeking false-witness against Jesus, that they might, put him to death; and found not any, though many came forward as false-witnesses. At length, however, there came forward, two, and said: This, man said - I am able to pull down the shrine of God, and, in three days, to, build, it. And the High-priest, arising, said unto him - Nothing, answerest thou? What are these, against thee bearing witness? But, Jesus, was silent. And, the High-priest, said unto him: I put thee on oath, by the Living God, that, to us, thou say - Whether, thou, art the Christ, the Son of God. Jesus saith unto him: Thou, hast said; Moreover, I say unto you - Hereafter, ye will see the Son of Man, sitting on the right hand of power, and coming upon the clouds of heaven. Then, the High-priest rent asunder his garments, saying - He hath spoken profanely! What further need have we, of witnesses? Lo! now, ye have heard the profanity! How, to you, doth it seem? And, they, answering, said: Guilty of death, he is. Then, spat they into his face, and buffeted him; and, others, struck him smartly, saying - Prophesy unto us, O Christ! Who is he that struck thee? Now, Peter, was sitting without, in the court; and there came unto him a certain female servant, saying - Thou also, wast with Jesus, the Galilaean. But, he, denied before all, saying - I know not what thou sayest. And, when he went out into the porch, another female saw him, and said unto them who were there - This, one was with Jesus the Nazarene. And, again, he denied, with an oath - I know not the man. And, after a little, the by-standers, coming forward, said unto Peter: Truly, thou also, art, from among them, for, thy very speech, maketh thee, manifest. Then, began he to be cursing and swearing - I know not the man! And, straightway, a cock crowed. And Peter was put in mind of the declaration of Jesus, of his having said - Before a cock crow, thrice, wilt thou utterly deny me; and, going forth outside, he wept bitterly.
And, they, thrust their hands on him, and secured him. A certainone of the by-standers, drawing a sword, smote the servant of the High priest, and took off his, ear. And Jesus, answering, said unto them - As against a robber, came ye forth, with swords and clubs, to arrest me? Daily, was I with you, in the temple, teaching; and ye secured me not. But, that, the Scriptures, may be fulfilled -- And they, all, forsook, him, and fled. And, a certain young man, was following with him, having cast about himself a fine Indian cloth, over his naked body, - and they are securing him; but, he, leaving behind the cloth, fled naked. And they led away Jesus unto the High-priest; and all the High-priests and the Elders and the Scribes gather together. And, Peter, afar of, followed him, as far as within, into the court of the High-priest; and was sitting with the attendants, and warming himself by the light. Now, the High-priest, and all the High-council, were seeking, against Jesus, testimony, with the intent to put him to death, - and were not finding any; for, many, were bearing false-witness against him, and the testimonies were not, agreed. And some, standing up, were bearing false-witness against him, saying - We, heard him saying, I, will pull down this shrine, the one made by hand, and, in three days, another, not made by hand, will I raise. And, not even so, was the testimony, agreed. And, the High-priest rising up into the midst, questioned Jesus, saying - Answerest thou, nothing? What are these, against thee, witnessing? But, he, was silent, and answered, nothing. Again, the High-priest was questioning him, and saith unto him - Art, thou, the Christ the Son of the Blessed? And Jesus said - I, am; and ye shall see the Son of Man - sitting, on the right hand, of Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven. And, the High-priest, having rent asunder his inner-garments, saith - What, further, need have we, of witnesses? Heard ye the profanity? What, to you, doth it appear? And they, all, condemned him to be, worthy, of, death. And some began to be spitting at him, and, covering up his face, and to be buffeting him, and saying to him - Prophesy! And, the attendants, with smart blows, took him. And, Peter, being, below in the court, there cometh one of the maid-servants of the High-priest; and, seeing Peter warming himself, having looked at him, saith - And, thou, wast, with the Nazarene - with Jesus. But, he, denied, saying - I neither know him , nor do I well understand what, thou, sayest; and went out into the porch. And, the maid-servant, seeing him, began, again, to be saying unto the by-standers - This one, is, from among them. But, he, again, was denying. And, after a little again, the by-standers, were saying unto Peter - Truly, thou, art, from among them; for thou art, a Galilaean, also. And, he, began to be cursing and swearing - I know not this man, of whom ye are speaking! And, straightway, a second time, a cock, crowed; and Peter was reminded of the declaration, how Jesus had said to him - Before a cock, twice, crow, thrice, wilt thou deny me. And, when he thought thereon, he began to weep.
And a certain one from among them smote, the High-priest's, servant, and took off his right ear. But Jesus, answering, said - Let be - as long as this! -- And, touching the ear, he healed him. And Jesus said unto the High-priests, and Captains of the temple, and Elders, who had come against him - As against a robber, have ye come out, with swords and clubs? Daily, was I with you, in the temple, and yet ye stretched not forth your hands against me! -- But, this, is your hour, and the authority of darkness. And, having arrested him, they led him away, and took him into the house of the High-priest; and, Peter, was following afar. And, they having kindled up a fire in the midst of the court, and taken seats together, Peter was for sitting among them. But, a certain maid-servant, seeing him seating himself towards the light, and looking steadfastly at him, said - This one also, was, with him. But, he, denied, saying - I know him not, woman! And, after a little, another, beholding him, said - Thou also, art, from among them. But, Peter, said - Man! I am not. And, about one hour having passed, a certain other, began stoutly to insist, saying - Of a truth, this one also, was with him; for indeed he is, a Galilaean. But Peter said - Man! I know not what thou art saying! And, instantly while yet he was speaking, a cock crew. And the Lord turned, and looked at Peter; and Peter was put in mind of the declaration of the Lord, how he had said to him - Before, a cock, crow this day, thou wilt deny me thrice! And, going forth outside, he wept bitterly. And, the men who held him bound, kept mocking him, with blows; and, blindfolding him, questioned him, saying - Prophesy! which is he that smote thee? and, many other things, with profane speech, were they saying unto him. And, when it became day, the Eldership of the people was gathered together - both High-priests and Scribes, - and they led him away into their high-council, saying - If, thou, art the Christ, tell us! But he said unto them - If I should tell, you, in nowise would ye believe, And, if I should put questions, in nowise would ye answer; But, henceforth, shall the Son of Man be seated on the right hand of the power of God. And they all said - Thou, then, art the Son of God? And, he, unto them said - Ye, say it , - because, I, am. And, they, said - What, further, need have we, of witness? We ourselves, have heard it from his mouth.
When, therefore, he said unto them, I, am he, they went backwards, and fell to the ground. Again, therefore, he questioned them - Whom, seek ye? And, they, said - Jesus, the Nazarene. Jesus answered - I told you, I, am he. If, then, ye seek me, let these go their way: - that the word might be fulfilled which he had said - As touching them whom thou hast given me, I lost from among them, not so much as one. Simon Peter, therefore, having a sword, drew it, and smote the High-priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. Now the name of the servant was Malchus. Jesus, therefore, said unto Peter - Thrust the sword into its sheath: - The cup which the Father hath given me, shall I in anywise not drink it? The band, therefore, and the captain, and the officers of the Jews, apprehended Jesus, and bound him, and led him unto Annas, first; for he was father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was the High-priest of that year. Now Caiaphas was he that gave counsel unto the Jews, that it was profitable for, one man, to die in behalf of the people. And Simon Peter was following with Jesus, also another disciple. But, that disciple, was known unto the High-priest, and entered in, with Jesus, into the court of the High-priest; whereas, Peter, remained standing at the door outside. The other disciple, therefore, that was known of the High-priest, went out, and spake unto the portress, and brought in Peter. The female servant, therefore, the portress, saith unto Peter - Art, thou also, from among the disciples of this man? He, saith - I am not! Now the servants and the officers were standing by, having made, a coal fire, because it was cold, - and were warming themselves; and Peter also was with them, standing and warming himself. The High-priest, therefore, questioned Jesus concerning his disciples, and concerning his teaching. Jesus answered him - I, openly, have spoken, unto the world, - I, ever, taught, in synagogue, and in the temple, where all the Jews gather together; and, in secret, spake nothing: Why questionest thou me? question them who have heard, what I spake unto them. See! these, know what, I, said. And, when, these things, he had said, one of the officers who was standing by, gave a smart blow to Jesus, saying - Thus, answerest thou, the High-priest? Jesus answered him - If, with abuse, I spake, bear witness of the abuse: but, if with respect, why, smitest thou me? Annas therefore sent him forth, bound, unto Caiaphas the High-priest. Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said, therefore, unto him - Art, thou also, from among his disciples? He, denied, and said - I am not! Saith one from among the servants of the High-priest, being, kinsman, of him whose ear Peter cut off, - Did not, I, see thee, in the garden with him? Again, therefore, Peter denied. And, straightway, a cock crew. So they lead Jesus from Caiaphas unto the judgment-hall. Now it was early; and, they themselves, entered not into the judgment-hall, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the passover. Pilate, therefore, went forth outside unto them, and saith, - What accusation bring ye against this man? They answered and said unto him - If this one had not been doing, mischief, unto thee, had we not delivered him up. Pilate, therefore, said unto them - Ye, take him, and, according to your law, judge ye him. The Jews said unto him - Unto us, it is not allowed, to kill anyone! - that, the word of Jesus, might be fulfilled, which he spake, signifying, by what manner of death, he was about to die. Pilate, therefore, entered again into the judgment-hall; and addressed Jesus, and said unto him - Art, thou, the king of the Jews? Jesus answered - Of thyself, art, thou, this thing saying; or did, others, tell thee concerning me? Pilate answered - Am, I, a Jew? Thine own nation, and the High-priests, delivered thee up, unto me! What, hast thou done? Jesus answered - My kingdom, is not of this world: If, of this world, had been my kingdom, mine own officers, would have been striving, that I should not be delivered up unto the Jews: but, now, my kingdom, is not from hence. Pilate, therefore, said unto him - And yet, thou, art, not a king? Jesus answered - Thou, sayest, that, a king, I am: I, for this, have been born, and, for this, have come into the world, - that I may bear witness unto the truth: Every one who is of the truth, hearkeneth unto my voice. Pilate saith unto him - What, is truth? And, this saying, again, went he out to the Jews, and saith unto them, - I, find in him, not a single fault. Howbeit ye have, a custom, that, some one, I should release unto you, during the passover: - Are ye minded, then, that I release unto you the king of the Jews? So they cried aloud again, saying - Not this man, but Barabbas! Now, Barabbas, was, a robber.

And, as he came up to the place, looking up, Jesus said unto him - Zacchaeus! make haste, and come down; For, to-day, in thy house, I must needs abide. And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully. And all, when they beheld, began to murmur, saying - With a sinful man, hath he gone in to lodge! But, taking his stand, Zacchaeus said unto the Lord - Lo! the half of my possessions, Lord, unto the destitute, I give; and, if, from anyone, I have taken aught by false accusation, I give back fourfold. And Jesus said unto him - This day, salvation, unto this house, hath come, - for that, he too, is, a son of Abraham; For the Son of Man came, to seek and to save what was lost.

How much better, then, a man, than, a sheep? So that it is allowable, on the sabbath, nobly, to act. Then saith he unto the man, Stretch forth thy hand! And he stretched it forth, - and it was restored, whole, as the other.
But the synagogue-ruler, answering, being greatly displeased that, on the Sabbath, Jesus had healed, began saying unto the multitude - Six days, there are, in which men ought to get their work done; On them, therefore, come and be healed, and, not on the day of rest.
