¹忽略伟大的救恩不能逃罪

¹Because of this it behoveth [us] more abundantly to take heed to the things heard, lest we may glide aside,

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。

²for if the word being spoken through messengers did become stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience did receive a just recompense,

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。

³how shall we escape, having neglected so great salvation? which a beginning receiving — to be spoken through the Lord — by those having heard was confirmed to us,

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。

⁴God also bearing joint-witness both with signs and wonders, and manifold powers, and distributions of the Holy Spirit, according to His will.

⁵耶稣因受死得了荣耀尊贵　神并没有把我们所说的“将来的世界”，交给天使管辖；

⁵For not to messengers did He subject the coming world, concerning which we speak,

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？

⁶and one in a certain place did testify fully, saying, `What is man, that Thou art mindful of him, or a son of man, that Thou dost look after him?

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）

⁷Thou didst make him some little less than messengers, with glory and honour Thou didst crown him, and didst set him over the works of Thy hands,

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。

⁸all things Thou didst put in subjection under his feet,` for in the subjecting to him the all things, nothing did He leave to him unsubjected, and now not yet do we see the all things subjected to him,

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。

⁹and him who was made some little less than messengers we see — Jesus — because of the suffering of the death, with glory and honour having been crowned, that by the grace of God for every one he might taste of death.

¹⁰救恩的元首耶稣万有因他而有、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。

¹⁰For it was becoming to Him, because of whom [are] the all things, and through whom [are] the all things, many sons to glory bringing, the author of their salvation through sufferings to make perfect,

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。

¹¹for both he who is sanctifying and those sanctified [are] all of one, for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,

¹²他说：“我要向我的弟兄宣扬你的名，我要在聚会中歌颂你。”

¹²saying, `I will declare Thy name to my brethren, in the midst of an assembly I will sing praise to Thee;` and again, `I will be trusting on Him;`

¹³又说：“我要信靠他。”又说：“看哪，我和　神所赐给我的孩子们。”

¹³and again, `Behold I and the children that God did give to me.`

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，

¹⁴Seeing, then, the children have partaken of flesh and blood, he himself also in like manner did take part of the same, that through death he might destroy him having the power of death — that is, the devil —

¹⁵并且要释放那些因为怕死而终身作奴仆的人。

¹⁵and might deliver those, whoever, with fear of death, throughout all their life, were subjects of bondage,

¹⁶其实，他并没有救援天使，只救援亚伯拉罕的后裔。

¹⁶for, doubtless, of messengers it doth not lay hold, but of seed of Abraham it layeth hold,

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。

¹⁷wherefore it did behove him in all things to be made like to the brethren, that he might become a kind and stedfast chief-priest in the things with God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people,

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。

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