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 sundry times and in divers manners, spoke in times past to the fathers by the prophets, last of all,

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 worlds. (aiōn g165)

In these days hath spoken to us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the world. (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 the brightness of his glory, and the figure of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, making purgation of sins, sitteth 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.

Being made so much better than 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 hath he said at any time, Thou art my Son, today have I 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 bringeth in the first begotten into the world, he saith: And let all the angels of God adore him.

7 Of the angels he says, “He makes his angels winds, and his servants a flame of fire.”

And to the angels indeed he saith: He that maketh his angels spirits, 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)

But to the Son: Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of justice is the sceptre of thy 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.”

Thou hast loved justice, and hated iniquity: therefore God, thy God, hath 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 in the beginning, O Lord, didst found the earth: and the works of thy hands are the heavens.

11 They will perish, but you continue. They all will grow old like a garment does.

They shall perish, but thou shalt continue: and they shall all grow old as a garment.

12 You will roll them up like a mantle, and they will be changed; but you are the same. Your years won’t fail.”

And as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed: but thou art the selfsame, 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 to which of the angels said he at any time: Sit on my right hand, until I make thy enemies thy footstool?

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 to minister for them, who shall receive the inheritance of salvation?
