Hebrews 1

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

God, who in ancient times, spoke often, and in various ways, to the fathers, by the prophets,

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

has, in these last days, spoken to us by a Son, whom he has constituted Lord of all things, by whom, also, he made the universe: (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 in effulgence of his glory, and an exact representation of his character, and controlling all things by his own powerful word, after 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 hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.

being exalted as far above the angels, as the name he has inherited, is more excellent than theirs.

5 For unto which of the angels said he at any time, 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?

For, to which of the angels did he at any time say, "Thou art my Son: to-day I have begotten thee"? and again, "I will be his Father, and he shall be my Son"?

6 And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.

But when he brings again the First-born into the world, he says, "Let all the angels of God worship him."

7 And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.

Whereas, concerning angels, he says, "Who makes winds his angels, and flaming fire his ministers."

8 But unto the Son [he saith], Thy throne, O God, [is] for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness [is] the sceptre of thy kingdom. (aiōn g165)

But to the Son, "Thy throne, O God, endures for ever. The scepter of thy kingdom is a scepter of rectitude. (aiōn g165)

9 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, [even] thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore, God, thy God, has anointed thee with the oil of gladness, above thy associates."

10 And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands:

And, "Thou, Lord, in the beginning didst lay the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the works of thy hands.

11 They shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment;

They shall perish, but thou dost remain; and they, as a garment, shall grow old;

12 And as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.

and, as a vesture, thou wilt fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same; and they shall be changed; but thou art the same; and thy years shall never fail."

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

Moreover, to which of the angels did he say, at any time, "Sit thou at 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 for them who shall inherit salvation?"
