1 For this reason we should give heed more abundantly to the things {we have} heard, lest in any way we should slip away.

2 For if the word which was spoken by angels was firm, and every transgression and disobedience received just retribution,

3 how shall *we* escape if we have been negligent of so great salvation, which, having had its commencement in being spoken {of} by the Lord, has been confirmed to us by those who have heard;

4 God bearing, besides, witness with {them} to {it}, both by signs and wonders, and various acts of power, and distributions of {the} Holy Spirit, according to his will?

5 For he has not subjected to angels the habitable world which is to come, of which we speak;

6 but one has testified somewhere, saying, What is man, that thou rememberest him, or son of man that thou visitest him?

7 Thou hast made him some little inferior to the angels; thou hast crowned him with glory and honour, {and hast set him over the works of thy hands;}

8 thou hast subjected all things under his feet. For in subjecting all things to him, he has left nothing unsubject to him. But now we see not yet all things subjected to *him*,

9 but we see Jesus, who {was} made some little inferior to angels on account of the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; so that by the grace of God he should taste death for every thing.

10 For it became him, for whom {are} all things, and by whom {are} all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make perfect the leader of their salvation through sufferings.

11 For both he that sanctifies and those sanctified {are} all of one; for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,

12 saying, I will declare thy name to my brethren; in {the} midst of {the} assembly will I sing thy praises.

13 And again, I will trust in him. And again, Behold, I and the children which God has given me.

14 Since therefore the children partake of blood and flesh, he also, in like manner, took part in the same, that through death he might annul him who has the might of death, that is, the devil;

15 and might set free all those who through fear of death through the whole of their life were subject to bondage.

16 For he does not indeed take hold of angels {by the hand}, but he takes hold of the seed of Abraham.

17 Wherefore it behoved him in all things to be made like to {his} brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things relating to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people;

18 for, in that himself has suffered, being tempted, he is able to help those that are being tempted.

1 因此， 我们必须更加密切注意所听过的道理， 免得我们随流失去。

2 那透过天使所传讲的信息既然是确定的， 所有干犯和不听从的， 都受了应得的报应。

3 如果我们忽略了这么大的救恩， 怎么能逃罪呢？这救恩起初是由主亲自宣讲的， 后来听见的人给我们证实了。

4 神又照着自己的旨意， 用神迹、奇事和各样异能， 以及圣灵的恩赐， 与他们一同作见证。

5 神并没有把我们所说的"将来的世界"， 交给天使管辖；

6 但是有人在圣经上某一处证实说： "人算什么， 你竟记念他？世人算什么， 你竟眷顾他？

7 你使他比天使稍低微一点， 却赐给他荣耀尊贵作冠冕， （有些古卷在此有"并立他统管你手所造的一切"一句）

8 使万物都服在他的脚下。"既然万有都服了他， 就没有剩下一样不服他的了。但是现在我们还没有看见万有都服他。

9 不过， 我们看见那位暂时成了比天使卑微的耶稣， 因为受了死的痛苦， 就得了荣耀尊贵作冠冕， 好叫他因着 神的恩典， 为万人尝了死味。

10 万有因他而有、借他而造的那位， 为了要带领许多儿子进入荣耀里去， 使救他们的元首借着受苦而得到成全， 本是合适的。

11 因为那位使人成圣的， 和那些得到成圣的， 同是出于一个源头； 所以他称他们为弟兄也不以为耻。

12 他说： "我要向我的弟兄宣扬你的名， 我要在聚会中歌颂你。"

13 又说： "我要信靠他。"又说： "看哪， 我和 神所赐给我的孩子们。"

14 孩子们既然同有血肉之体， 他自己也照样成为血肉之体， 为要借着死， 消灭那掌握死权的魔鬼，

15 并且要释放那些因为怕死而终身作奴仆的人。

16 其实， 他并没有救援天使， 只救援亚伯拉罕的后裔。

17 所以， 他必须在各方面和他的弟兄们相同， 为了要在 神的事上， 成为仁慈忠信的大祭司， 好为人民赎罪。

18 因为他自己既然经过试探， 受了苦， 就能够帮助那些被试探的人。
