Heb 1
1
God, having of old time spoken to the fathers in the prophets by divers portions and
in divers manners,
2
has at the end of these days spoken to us in [his] Son, whom he appointed heir of
all things, through whom also he made the worlds;
3
who being the effulgence of his glory, and the very image of his substance, and upholding
all things by the word of his power, when he had made purification of sins, sat down
on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
4
having become by so much better than the angels, as he has inherited a more excellent
name than they.
5
For to which of the angels said he at any time, You are my Son, This day have I engendered
you? and again, I will be to him a Father, And he shall be to me a Son?
6
And when he again brings in the firstborn into the world he says, And let all the
angels of God worship him.
7
And of the angels he says, Who makes his angels winds, And his ministers a flame a
fire:
8
but of the Son [he says,] Your throne, O God, is for ever and ever; And the sceptre
of uprightness is the sceptre of your kingdom.
9
You have loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; Therefore God, your God, has anointed
you With the oil of gladness above your fellows.
10
And, You, Lord, in the beginning did lay the foundation of the earth, And the
heavens are the works of your hands:
11
They shall perish; but you continue: And they all shall wax old as does a garment;
12
And as a mantle shall you roll them up, As a garment, and they shall be changed: But
you are the same, And your years shall not fail.
13
But of which of the angels has he said at any time, Sit you on my right hand, Till
I make your enemies the footstool of your feet?
14
Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to do service for the sake of them
that shall inherit salvation?
