< Hebrews 1 >

1 God, having in the past spoken to the fathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways,
God, who at different times and in different ways spoke of old to the fathers by the prophets,
2 has at the end of these days spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, through whom also he made the ages (aiōn g165).
hath at the end of these days spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, by whom he also made the worlds, (aiōn g165)
3 His Son is the radiance of his glory, the very image of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, who, when he had by himself purified us of our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high,
who being a brightness from his glory and an image of his being, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself accomplished a cleansing of sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
4 having become as much better than the angels as the more excellent name he has inherited is better than theirs.
having become so much superior to the angels, as he hath inherited a more excellent name than they.
5 For to which of the angels did he say at any time, “You are my Son. Today I have become your father?” and again, “I will be to him a Father, and he will be to me a Son?”
For to which of the angels did he ever say: “Thou art my Son, I this day have begotten thee?” and again: “I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?”
6 When he again brings in the firstborn into the world he says, “Let all the angels of God worship him.”
And again, when he hath brought in the first-begotten into the world, he saith: “And let all the angels of God pay him homage.”
7 Of the angels he says, “He makes his angels winds, and his servants a flame of fire.”
And of the angels he saith: “Who maketh his angels winds, and his ministers a flame of fire;”
8 But of the Son he says, "Your throne, O God, is for the age (aiōn g165) of the ages (aiōn g165). The scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your Kingdom.
but of the Son: “Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever; and the sceptre of thy kingdom is a sceptre of righteousness. (aiōn g165)
9 You have loved righteousness and hated iniquity; therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows.”
Thou lovedst righteousness, and hatedst iniquity; therefore God, thy God, anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.”
10 And, “You, Lord, in the beginning, laid the foundation of the earth. The heavens are the works of your hands.
And: “Thou, Lord, in the beginning didst found the earth, and the heavens are the works of thy hands.
11 They will perish, but you continue. They all will grow old like a garment does.
They will perish, but thou remainest; and they will all become old as doth a garment,
12 You will roll them up like a mantle, and they will be changed; but you are the same. Your years will not fail.”
and thou wilt fold them up as a vesture, and they will be changed; but thou art the same, and thy years will not fail.”
13 But which of the angels has he told at any time, “Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet?”
But to which of the angels hath he ever said: “Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool?”
14 Are not they all serving spirits, sent out to do service for the sake of those who will inherit salvation?
Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for the sake of those who are to inherit salvation?
