For since the message declared by angels proved to be reliable, and every transgression or disobedience received a just retribution, how shall we escape if we neglect such a great salvation?

NLTNew Living Translation

For the message God delivered through angels has always stood firm, and every violation of the law and every act of disobedience was punished.

And God confirmed the message by giving signs and wonders and various miracles and gifts of the Holy Spirit whenever he chose.
