Hebrews 2:7-9
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
7 You have made them for a little while lower[a] than the angels;
you have crowned them with glory and honour,[b]
8 subjecting all things under their feet.’
Now in subjecting all things to them, God[c] left nothing outside their control. As it is, we do not yet see everything in subjection to them, 9 but we do see Jesus, who for a little while was made lower[d] than the angels, now crowned with glory and honour because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God[e] he might taste death for everyone.
