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,

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 forever and ever. The scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your Kingdom. (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.”

11 They will perish, but you continue. They all will grow old like a garment does.
They shall perish; but thou continuest: And they all shall wax old as doth a garment;

And as a mantle shalt thou roll them up, As a garment, and they shall be changed: But thou art the same, And thy years shall 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 of which of the angels hath he said at any time, Sit thou on my right hand, Till I make thine enemies the footstool of thy feet?
14 Aren’t 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 do service for the sake of them that shall inherit salvation?
