2 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)

in these last days has spoken to us by a Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, through whom also he made the ages. (aiōn g165)

3 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.

having become so much better than the angels, as he has inherited a more excellent name than they have.

5 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”?

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 his Father, and he will be my Son"?

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

And again, when he brings in the firstborn into the world he says, "Let all the angels of God worship him."

Of the angels he says, "Who makes his angels winds, and his servants a flame of fire."

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

But of the Son he says, "Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, and the righteous scepter is the scepter of your Kingdom. (aiōn g165)

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

And, "In the beginning, Lord, you established the foundation of the earth. The heavens are the works of your hands.

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

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

12 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.”

As a cloak, you will roll them up, and like a garment they will be changed. But you remain the same, and your years will have no end."

13 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”?

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?"

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

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