< Hebrews 1 >

1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets,
God, who in many parts and in many ways spoke in ancient times to the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by his Son,
2 Has in these last days spoken to us by his Son, whom he has appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; (aiōn g165)
whom he has appointed heir of all things, by whom, also, he made the ages; (aiōn g165)
3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:
who, being the effulgence of his glory and the exact representation of his essence, and upholding all things by his own powerful word, when he had by himself made expiation for our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,
4 Being made so much better than the angels, as he has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
having become so far superior to the angels, as the name which he has inherited is more excellent than theirs.
5 For to which of the angels said he at any time, You are my Son, this day have I begotten you? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?
For to which of the angels did he at any time say: Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again: I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?
6 And again, when he brings in the first-begotten into the world, he says, And let all the angels of God worship him.
And again, when he brings the first-begotten into the world, he says: And let all the angels of God worship him.
7 And of the angels he says, Who makes his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
And of the angels he says: Who makes his angels winds, and his ministers a flame of fire.
8 But to the Son he says, Your throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a scepter of righteousness is the scepter of your kingdom. (aiōn g165)
But to the Son: Thy throne, O God, is from age to age: a scepter of rectitude is the scepter of thy kingdom. (aiōn g165)
9 You have loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows.
Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore, God, thy God, has anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
10 And, You, Lord, in the beginning have laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of your hands:
And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning, didst lay the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the works of thy hands.
11 They shall perish; but you remain; and they all shall wax old as does a garment;
They shall perish; but thou remainest: and they all shall grow old as a garment;
12 And as a clothing shall you fold them up, and they shall be changed: but you are the same, and your years shall not fail.
and as a mantle thou shalt fold them up, and they shall be changed; but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.
13 But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool?
But to which of the angels has he said at any time: Sit on my right hand, till I make thy enemies thy footstool?
14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?
Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister to those who shall inherit salvation?
