G1642–ἐλαττόω–elattoō

He must grow greater, but I must grow less.

ἐλαττοῦσθαι. elattousthai “to decrease.”

Thou hast made him only a little inferior to the angels; with glory and honour Thou hast crowned him, and hast set him to govern the works of Thy hands.

ἠλάττωσας ēlattōsas “You made lower”

But Jesus--who was made a little inferior to the angels in order that through God's grace He might taste death for every human being--we already see wearing a crown of glory and honour because of His having suffered death.

ἠλαττωμένον ēlattōmenon “made lower”
