Hebrews 2:7-9

Revised Standard Version

⁷Thou didst make him for a little while lower than the angels,
thou hast crowned him with glory and honor,^[a]
⁸putting everything in subjection under his feet.”

Now in putting everything in subjection to him, he left nothing outside his control. As it is, we do not yet see everything in subjection to him. ⁹But we see Jesus, who for a little while was made lower than the angels, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for every one.
