Hebrews 1

1 God, who at several times and in divers manners spoke in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,

IN many ways, and many forms, God anciently conversed with our fathers, by the prophets:

2 Has in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he has appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; (aiōn g165)

But in these latter days, he hath conversed with us, by his Son; whom he hath constituted heir of all things, and by whom he made the worlds; (aiōn g165)

3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word (rhema) of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:

who is the splendor of his glory, and the image of himself, and upholdeth all by the energy of his word; and by himself he made a purgation of sins, and sat down on 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.

And he is altogether superior to the angels, as he hath also inherited a name which excelleth theirs.

5 For unto 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 God ever 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-Born into the world, he says, And let all the angels of God worship him.

And again, when bringing the first begotten into the world, he said: Let all the angels of God worship him.

7 And of the angels he says, Who makes his angels spirits, (pneuma) and his ministers a flame of fire.

But of the angels he thus said: Who made his angels a wind, and his ministers a flaming fire.

8 But unto the Son he says, Your throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of your kingdom. (aiōn g165)

But of the Son he said: Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever; a righteous sceptre is the sceptre 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 rectitude, and hated iniquity; therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness more than thy associates.

10 And, You, Lord, in the beginning have laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of your hands:

And again, Thou hast from the beginning laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of thy hands:

11 They shall perish; but you remain; and they all shall wax old as does a garment;

they will pass away, but thou endurest; and they all, like a robe, wax old;

12 And as a vesture shall you fold them up, and they shall be changed: but you are the same, and your years shall not fail.

and like a cloak, thou wilt fold them up. They will be changed; but thou wilt be as thou art, and thy years will not be finished.

13 But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool?

And to which of the angels did he ever say: Sit thou at my right hand, until I shall place thy enemies a footstool under thy feet?

14 Are they not all ministering spirits, (pneuma) sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?

Are they not all spirits of ministration, who are sent to minister on account of them that are to inherit life?
