Hebrews 1

1 God, having in the past spoken to the fathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways,

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

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 ages (aiōn g165).

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)

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,

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,

4 having become as much better than the angels as the more excellent name he has inherited is better than theirs.

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

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 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”?

6 When he again brings in the firstborn into the world he says, “Let all the angels of God worship him.”

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

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

Speaking of the angels, he said – “He makes the winds his angels and the flames of fire his servants”;

8 But of the Son he says, "Your throne, O God, is for the age (aiōn g165) of the ages (aiōn g165). The scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your Kingdom.

while of the Son he said – “God is your throne for ever and ever; the sceptre of his kingdom is the sceptre of Justice; (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.”

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

10 And, “You, Lord, in the beginning, laid the foundation of the earth. The heavens are the works of your hands.

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

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

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

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

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.”

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?”

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”?

14 Are not they all serving spirits, sent out to do service for the sake of those who will inherit salvation?

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?
