Hebrews 1

1 In many portions and in many ways long ago God having spoken to the fathers in the prophets

On many past occasions and in many different ways, God spoke to our fathers through the prophets.

2 in ([this] last *N+kO) of the days these has spoken to us in [His] Son whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the ages (aiōn g165)

But in these last days He has spoken to us by His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, and through whom He made the universe. (aiōn g165)

3 who being [the] radiance of [His] glory and [the] exact expression of the substance of Him, upholding then all things by the declaration of the power of Him (through himself *KO) [the] purification of sins having made (of us *K) sat down at [the] right hand of the Majesty on high

The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of His nature, upholding all things by His powerful word. After He had provided purification for sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.

4 By so much superior having become to the angels, as much as more excellent beyond theirs He has inherited a name.

So He became as far superior to the angels as the name He has inherited is excellent beyond theirs.

5 To which for did He say ever of the angels: Son of mine are You yourself, I myself today have begotten You? And again: I myself will be to Him for a Father, and He himself will be to Me for a Son?

For to which of the angels did God ever say: “You are My Son; today I have become Your Father”? Or again: “I will be His Father, and He will be My Son”?

6 When then again He may bring the Firstborn into the world He says: And should worship Him all [the] angels of God.

And again, when God brings His firstborn into the world, He says: “Let all God’s angels worship Him.”

7 And as to indeed the angels He says: The [One] making the angels of Him winds and the ministers of Him of fire a flame;

Now about the angels He says: “He makes His angels winds, His servants flames of fire.”

8 Unto however the Son: The throne of You, O God [is] to the age of the age; (and *no) the scepter of righteousness [is] scepter of the kingdom (of You. *NK+O) (aiōn g165)

But about the Son He says: “Your throne, O God, endures forever and ever, and justice is the scepter of Your kingdom. (aiōn g165)

9 You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness. because of this has anointed You God, the God of You, with [the] oil of exultation above the companions of You.

You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, Your God, has anointed You above Your companions with the oil of joy.”

10 And You yourself in [the] beginning, Lord, of the earth laid the foundation, and works of the hands of You are the heavens;

And: “In the beginning, O Lord, You laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of Your hands.

11 They themselves will perish, You yourself however remain; and all like a garment will grow old,

They will perish, but You remain; they will all wear out like a garment.

12 and like a robe You will roll up them (like a garment *NO) also they will be changed; You yourself however the same are, and the years of You not will never end.

You will roll them up like a robe; like a garment they will be changed; but You remain the same, and Your years will never end.”

13 To which now of the angels has He said ever: do sit at [the] right hand of Me until when I may place the enemies of You [as] a footstool for the feet of You?

Yet to which of the angels did God ever say: “Sit at My right hand until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet”?

14 Surely all they are ministering spirits for service being sent forth for the sake of those being about to inherit salvation?

Are not the angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?
