Hebrews 1
1 In many parts and many ways, God, having spoken long ago to the fathers by the prophets,
On many occasions and in many ways in the olden time, God having spoken to the fathers through the prophets, at the last of these days has spoken to us through his Son,
2 in these last days speaks to us in [His] Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom He also made the ages; (aiōn g165)
whom he put forth the heir of all things, and through whom he created the ages; (aiōn g165)
3 who being the brightness of the glory, and the impress of His subsistence, bearing up also all things by the saying of His might—having made a cleansing of our sins through Himself, sat down at the right hand of the Greatness in the highest,
who being the brightness of his glory, and the character of his person, and holding up all things by the word of his power, having made purgation of the sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
4 having become so much better than the messengers, as He inherited a more excellent name than them.
being so much greater than the angels, that he has inherited a name so much more excellent than they.
5 For to which of the messengers did He ever say, “You are My Son—today I have begotten You?” And again, “I will be to Him for a Father, and He will be to Me for a Son?”
For to which one of the angels at any time did he say, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? and again, I will be unto him a Father, and he shall be unto me a Son?
6 And when again He may bring the firstborn into the world, He says, “And let them worship Him—all messengers of God”;
And again when he may lead in the first begotten into the world, he says, Indeed let all the angels of God worship him.
7 and to the messengers, indeed, He says, “The [One] who is making His messengers spirits, and His ministers a flame of fire”;
And to the angels he says, he maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire: but to the Son he says,
8 but to the Son: “Your throne, O God, [is] throughout the age of the age; The scepter of righteousness [is the] scepter of Your kingdom; (aiōn g165)
Thy throne, O God, is unto the age of the age; and the scepter of righteousness is the scepter of thy kingdom. (aiōn g165)
9 You loved righteousness, and hated lawlessness; Because of this He anointed You—God, Your God—With oil of gladness above Your partners”;
Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, thy God, has anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy comrades.
10 and, “You, LORD, founded the earth at the beginning, And the heavens are a work of Your hands.
And thou, at the beginning, O Lord, didst lay the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the works of thy hands.
11 These will perish, but You remain, And all will become old as a garment,
These shall perish; but thou dost remain: truly all these shall wax old like a garment;
12 And You will roll them together as a mantle, and they will be changed, But You are the same, and Your years will not fail.”
and thou shalt roll them up like a mantle, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail thee.
13 And to which of the messengers did He ever say, “Sit at My right hand, Until I may make Your enemies Your footstool?”
And to which one of the angels has he at any time said, Sit thou on my right hand, until I may make thine enemies the footstool of thy feet?
14 Are they not all spirits of service—being sent forth for ministry because of those about to inherit salvation?
Are not all these ministering spirits, having been sent forth unto ministration for the sake of those who are about to inherit salvation?
