1 We must pay the most careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away.2 For since the message spoken through angels was binding, and every violation and disobedience received its just punishment,3 how shall we escape if we ignore so great a salvation? This salvation, which was first announced by the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard him.4 God also testified to it by signs, wonders and various miracles, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his will.5 It is not to angels that he has subjected the world to come, about which we are speaking.6 But there is a place where someone has testified: "What is mankind that you are mindful of them, a son of man that you care for him?7 You made them a little "lower than the angels; you crowned them with glory and honor8 and put everything under their feet." ""In putting everything under them, "God left nothing that is not subject to them. "Yet at present we do not see everything subject to them. [^6]9 But we do see Jesus, who was made lower than the angels for a little while, now crowned with glory and honor because he suffered death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.10 In bringing many sons and daughters to glory, it was fitting that God, for whom and through whom everything exists, should make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through what he suffered.11 Both the one who makes people holy and those who are made holy are of the same family. So Jesus is not ashamed to call them brothers and sisters. [^7]12 He says, "I will declare your name to my brothers and sisters; in the assembly I will sing your praises." [^8]13 And again, "I will put my trust in him." "And again he says, "Here am I, and the children God has given me." [^10]14 Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might break the power of him who holds the power of death —that is, the devil —15 and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death.16 For surely it is not angels he helps, but Abraham's descendants.17 For this reason he had to be made like them, "fully human in every way, in order that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, and that he might make atonement for the sins of the people.18 Because he himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted.

1 لذلك يجب ان نتنبه اكثر الى ما سمعنا لئلا نفوته.2 لانه ان كانت الكلمة التي تكلم بها ملائكة قد صارت ثابتة وكل تعد ومعصية نال مجازاة عادلة3 فكيف ننجو نحن ان اهملنا خلاصا هذا مقداره قد ابتدأ الرب بالتكلم به ثم تثبت لنا من الذين سمعوا4 شاهدا الله معهم بآيات وعجائب وقوات متنوعة ومواهب الروح القدس حسب ارادته5 فانه لملائكة لم يخضع العالم العتيد الذي نتكلم عنه.6 لكن شهد واحد في موضع قائلا ما هو الانسان حتى تذكره او ابن الانسان حتى تفتقده.7 وضعته قليلا عن الملائكة. بمجد وكرامة كللته واقمته على اعمال يديك.8 اخضعت كل شيء تحت قدميه. لانه اذ أخضع الكل له لم يترك شيئا غير خاضع له. على اننا الآن لسنا نرى الكل بعد مخضعا له.9 ولكن الذي وضع قليلا عن الملائكة يسوع نراه مكللا بالمجد والكرامة من اجل ألم الموت لكي يذوق بنعمة الله الموت لاجل كل واحد.10 لانه لاق بذاك الذي من اجله الكل وبه الكل وهو آت بابناء كثيرين الى المجد ان يكمل رئيس خلاصهم بالآلام.11 لان المقدس والمقدسين جميعهم من واحد فلهذا السبب لا يستحي ان يدعوهم اخوة12 قائلا اخبر باسمك اخوتي وفي وسط الكنيسة اسبحك.13 وايضا انا اكون متوكلا عليه. وايضا ها انا والاولاد الذين اعطانيهم الله.14 فاذ قد تشارك الاولاد في اللحم والدم اشترك هو ايضا كذلك فيهما لكي يبيد بالموت ذاك الذي له سلطان الموت اي ابليس15 ويعتق اولئك الذين خوفا من الموت كانوا جميعا كل حياتهم تحت العبودية.16 لانه حقا ليس يمسك الملائكة بل يمسك نسل ابراهيم17 من ثم كان ينبغي ان يشبه اخوته في كل شيء لكي يكون رحيما ورئيس كهنة امينا في ما للّه حتى يكفّر خطايا الشعب.18 لانه في ما هو قد تألم مجربا يقدر ان يعين المجربين
