God, having spoken to the fathers through the prophets in many parts and in various ways, in the past,
2 ⲃ̅ ϩⲛ ⲑⲁⲏ ⲛⲛⲉⲓϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲁϥϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲙⲙⲁⲛ ϩⲙ ⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲕⲁⲁϥ ⲛⲕⲗⲏⲣⲟⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⲙⲡⲧⲏⲣϥ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲧⲁⲙⲓⲉ ⲛⲁⲓⲱⲛ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓ ⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ (aiōn g165)
has at the end of these days spoken to us by Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the ages; (aiōn g165)
3 ⲅ̅ ⲉⲧⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓⲛ ⲙⲡⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲙⲡⲉϥⲧⲁϫⲣⲟ ⲉϥϥⲓ ϩⲁ ⲡⲧⲏⲣϥ ϩⲙ ⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲉϥϭⲟⲙ ⲉⲁϥⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲙⲡⲧⲃⲃⲟ ⲛⲛⲉⲛⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓ ⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ ⲁϥϩⲙⲟⲟⲥ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲩⲛⲁⲙ ⲛⲧⲙⲛⲧⲛⲟϭ ϩⲛ ⲛⲉⲧϫⲟⲥⲉ
who being the projection of His glory and the very image of His essence, and sustaining all things by the expression of His[S] own power, when He had by Himself provided purification for our sins He sat down on the highest Majesty's right,
having become so much superior to the angels as He has inherited a more excellent name than they have.
5 ⲉ̅ ⲛⲧⲁϥϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲛⲓⲙ ⲛⲛⲉϥⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲉⲛⲉϩ ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲁϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲁⲓϫⲡⲟⲕ ⲙⲡⲟⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲛ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϯⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ⲉⲩⲉⲓⲱⲧ ⲛⲧⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ϥⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲩϣⲏⲣⲉ
For to which of the angels did He[F] ever say, “You are my Son, today I begot you,” and again, “I will be ‘Father’ to Him, and He will be ‘Son’ to me?”
6 ⲋ̅ ⲉϥϣⲁⲛⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲙⲡϣⲣⲡ ⲙⲙⲓⲥⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲧⲟⲓⲕⲟⲩⲙⲉⲛⲏ ϣⲁϥϫⲟⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲙⲁⲣⲟⲩⲟⲩⲱϣⲧ ⲛⲁϥ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲛϭⲓ ⲛⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ
Again, when He introduces the Firstborn into the inhabited earth He says, “Let all God's angels worship Him[S].”
Further, about the angels He[F] says, “Who makes His angels winds, His servants flames of fire”;
8 ⲏ̅ ⲛⲛⲁϩⲣⲙ ⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲕⲑⲣⲟⲛⲟⲥ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϣⲟⲟⲡ ϣⲁ ⲉⲛⲉϩ ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲉⲛⲉϩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡϭⲉⲣⲱⲃ ⲙⲡⲥⲟⲟⲩⲧⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲡϭⲉⲣⲱⲃ ⲛⲧⲉⲕⲙⲛⲧⲣⲣⲟ (aiōn g165)
while to the Son He says: “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; ‘Scepter of Uprightness’ is the scepter of Your kingdom. (aiōn g165)
9 ⲑ̅ ⲁⲕⲙⲉⲣⲉ ⲧⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥⲩⲛⲏ ⲁⲕⲙⲉⲥⲧⲉ ⲡϫⲓ ⲛϭⲟⲛⲥ ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲁϥⲧⲁϩⲥⲕ ⲛϭⲓ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲕⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛⲟⲩⲛⲉϩ ⲛⲧⲉⲗⲏⲗ ⲡⲁⲣⲁ ⲛⲉⲑⲓⲧⲟⲩⲱⲕ
You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness, therefore God, Your God, has anointed You with the oil of exultation beyond Your companions.”
Also: “You, Lord, in the beginning, laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are works of Your hands;
they will perish but You continue on —they will all grow old like a garment;
You will roll them up like a cloak and they will be changed, while You stay the same and Your years will never end.”
13 ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ ⲛⲧⲁϥϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲛⲓⲙ ⲛⲛⲉϥⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲉⲛⲉϩ ϫⲉ ϩⲙⲟⲟⲥ ϩⲓ ⲟⲩⲛⲁⲙ ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ϣⲁⲛϯⲕⲱ ⲛⲛⲉⲕϫⲁϫⲉ ⲛϩⲩⲡⲟⲡⲟⲇⲓⲟⲛ ⲛⲛⲉⲕⲟⲩⲉⲣⲏⲧⲉ
On the other hand, to which of the angels did He ever say, “Sit on my right until I place your enemies as a stool under your feet”?
14 ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ ⲙⲏ ⲛϩⲉⲛⲗⲓⲧⲟⲩⲣⲅⲓⲕⲟⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲙⲡⲛⲁ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲛⲉ ⲉⲩⲧⲛⲛⲟⲟⲩ ⲙⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲉϩⲉⲛⲇⲓⲁⲕⲟⲛⲓⲁ ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲛⲉⲧⲛⲁⲕⲗⲏⲣⲟⲛⲟⲙⲓ ⲛⲟⲩⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ
Are they not all ministering spirits being sent to serve those who are going to inherit salvation?
