Hebrews 2:5-9 (New Century Version)
View In My Bible
5
God did not choose angels to be the rulers of the new world that was coming, which is what we have been talking about.
6
It is written in the Scriptures, "Why are people important to you? Why do you take care of human beings?
7
You made them a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honor. You put all things under their control."
8
When God put everything under their control, there was nothing left that they did not rule. Still, we do not yet see them ruling over everything.
9
But we see Jesus, who for a short time was made lower than the angels. And now he is wearing a crown of glory and honor because he suffered and died. And by God's grace, he died for everyone.
