Hebrews 1

1 God, who, of old, at many times and in many ways, spoke to our ancestors, by the prophets,

Bog, ki je ob različnih časih in na številne načine v preteklem času govoril očetom po prerokih,

2 has in these latter days spoken to us by the Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe. (aiōn g165)

nam je v teh poslednjih dneh spregovoril po svojem Sinu, ki ga je določil [za] dediča vseh stvari, po katerem je tudi naredil svetove; (aiōn g165)

3 For he is the radiance of the glory of God and the expression of his being, upholding all creation by the power of his word; and, when he had made an expiation for the sins of humanity, he took his seat at the right hand of God’s Majesty on high,

ki je sijaj njegove slave in natančna podoba njegove osebe in po besedi svoje moči nosi vse stvari; ko nas je po sebi očistil naših grehov, je sédel na desnico Veličanstva na višavi;

4 having shown himself as much greater than the angels as the name that he has inherited surpasses theirs.

narejen je bil toliko boljši kakor angeli, kolikor je s podedovanjem dosegel odličnejše ime kakor oni.

5 For to which of the angels did God ever say – ‘You are my Son; this day I have become your Father’? or again – ‘I will be to him a Father, and he will be to me a Son’?

Kajti kateremu izmed angelov je on kadarkoli rekel: »Ti si moj Sin, danes sem te rodil?« In ponovno: »Jaz mu bom Oče in on mi bo Sin?«

6 And again, when God brought the firstborn into the world, he said – ‘Let all the angels of God bow down before him.’

In ponovno, ko privede prvorojenca na svet, pravi: »In obožujejo naj ga vsi Božji angeli.«

7 Speaking of the angels, he said – ‘He makes the winds his angels and the flames of fire his servants’;

In o angelih pravi: »Kdor dela svoje angele duhove in svoje služabnike ognjene plamene.«

8 while of the Son he said – ‘God is your throne for ever and ever; the scepter of his kingdom is the scepter of Justice; (aiōn g165)

Toda sinu pravi: »Tvoj prestol, oh Bog, je na veke vekov; žezlo pravičnosti je žezlo tvojega kraljestva.« (aiōn g165)

9 You love righteousness and hates iniquity; therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the festal oil more abundantly than your peers.’

Ljubil si pravičnost in sovražil krivičnost; zatorej te je Bog, celó tvoj Bog, mazilil z oljem veselja bolj kakor tvoje tovariše.

10 Again – ‘You, Lord, in the beginning did lay the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands.

In: »Ti, Gospod, si v začetku položil temelj zemlji in nebesa so delo tvojih rok;

11 They will perish, but you remain; as a garment they will all grow old;

ona bosta propadla, toda ti ostajaš; in vsa se bosta postarala kakor obleka;

12 As a mantle you will fold them up, and as a garment they will be changed, but you are the same, and your years will know no end.’

in zložil ju boš kakor suknjo in se bosta spremenila, toda ti si isti in tvoja leta ne bodo prenehala.«

13 To which of the angels has God ever said – ‘Sit you at my right hand until I put your enemies as a stool for your feet’?

Toda kateremu izmed angelov je ob kateremkoli času rekel: »Sédi na mojo desnico, dokler ne naredim tvojih sovražnikov [za] tvojo pručko?«

14 Are not all the angels spirits in the service of God, sent out to minister for the sake of those who are destined to obtain salvation?

Mar niso vsi ti službujoči duhovi, poslani, da služijo zaradi tistih, ki bodo dediči rešitve duš?
