5 We know that God did not put the future world under the power of angels.
6 Somewhere in the Scriptures someone says to God,“What makes you careabout us humans?Why are you concernedfor weaklings such as we?
7 You made us lowerthan the angelsfor a while.Yet you have crowned uswith glory and honor.
8 And you have put everythingunder our power!”God has put everything under our power and has not left anything out of our power. But we still don't see it all under our control.
9 What we do see is Jesus, who for a little while was made lower than the angels. Because of God's gift of undeserved grace, Jesus died for everyone. And now that Jesus has suffered and died, he is crowned with glory and honor!
10 Everything belongs to God, and all things were created by his power. So God did the right thing when he made Jesus perfect by suffering, as Jesus led many of God's children to be saved and to share in his glory.
11 Jesus and the people he makes holy all belong to the same family. This is why he isn't ashamed to call them his brothers and sisters.
