Hebrews 1
1 Long ago God communicated frequently to our ancestors in various ways by what the prophets [said and wrote].
Gar oft und verschiedenartig hat Gott vor alters durch die Propheten zu den Vätern geredet;
2 But now when this final age [is beginning], God has communicated to us [just once] by means of what (his Son/the man who was also God) [said and did. God] appointed him in order that he would possess everything [that truly belongs to God. God also appointed] him in order that he would create the universe. (aiōn g165)
jetzt, am Ende der Tage, sprach er zu uns durch seinen Sohn. Ihn setzte er zum Erben des Weltalls ein, durch den er die Welten geschaffen hat. (aiōn g165)
3 He manifests God’s glory. He exactly represents [what God is like]. He (sustains everything by means of his powerful words. When he had [enabled people to be] freed from the [guilt of] their sins [MET], he sat down in heaven [EUP] [to rule] at the place of greatest honor [MTY] with God [MTY].
Er ist der Abglanz seiner Herrlichkeit, das Abbild seines Wesens, und er trägt das All durch sein gewaltiges Wort. Er brachte Erlösung von den Sünden und setzte sich zur Rechten der Majestät im Himmel.
4 By doing that, he [showed that he] was very much greater than the angels, to the extent that his relationship [MTY] [to God, as his Son], is more excellent than the relationship the angels [have to God].
Er ward um ebensoviel über alle Engel hoch erhoben, als der Name, den er ererbt hat, den ihren überragt.
5 [We know that] because [in the Scriptures] no one [RHQ] ever reported that God said to any angel [what he said to his Son], You [(sg)] are my Son! Today I have declared to all that I am your Father [DOU]! And he said in another Scripture passage, I will be his Father, and he will be my Son [DOU].
Zu welchem Engel hat denn jemals Gott gesprochen: "Mein Sohn bist du, heute habe ich dich gezeugt"? Oder zu welchem sagte er: "Ich werde ihm Vater und er wird mir Sohn sein"?
6 And [we know his Son is greater than the angels because in] another [Scripture passage someone wrote this about God’s esteemed Son], when God was about to send him into the world: All God’s angels must worship him.
Und wenn er den Erstgeborenen wiederum in die Welt einführt, sagt er: "Ihm sollen huldigen alle Engel Gottes."
7 [And in the Scriptures it is written that] someone said this about the angels: [God] makes the [angels] who serve him [to be changeable like] [MET] winds and flames of fire.
Doch von den Engeln heißt es nur: "Er macht seine Engel zu Winden, zu Feuerflammen seine Diener."
8 But on the other hand, [in the Scriptures it is written that God said] this to his Son: You [(sg)] who are [also] God will rule forever [MTY], and you will reign righteously over your kingdom [MTY]. (aiōn g165)
Vom Sohn aber: "Dein Thron, o Gott, steht für die Ewigkeit der Ewigkeiten!" und "Das Zepter der Gerechtigkeit, das ist dein Herrscherstab. (aiōn g165)
9 You have loved [people’s] righteous [deeds] and you have hated [people’s] lawless [deeds]. So I, your God, have caused you to be more joyful [MTY] than anyone else.
Du liebst das Recht; den Frevel hassest du; darum hat dich, o Gott, dein Gott gesalbt mit Freudenöl, wie keinen deiner Genossen."
10 And [we also know that his Son is superior to angels because in the Scriptures the Psalmist wrote that] someone said to God’s Son, Lord, it was you who created the earth in the beginning. You also made [the rest of] the universe (OR, the [things in] the sky) [MTY].
Und weiter heißt es: "Du, o Herr, hast im Anfang die Erde gegründet; die Himmel sind das Werk deiner Hände;
11 Everything in the universe will disappear, but you will keep on living [forever]. They will wear out as clothing [wears out].
doch sie vergehen, Du aber bleibst, veralten werden alle, wie ein Kleid,
12 You will dispose of them as one rolls up an [old] coat [before getting rid of it]. [Then], you will exchange [everything that is in the universe for what is new], as someone puts on a new garment [in exchange for an old garment] [SIM]. But you [are not like what you created]; You stay the same, and you live forever [LIT]!
wie einen Mantel wirst Du sie zusammenrollen - wie ein Kleid werden sie vertauscht; Du aber bleibst derselbe, und Deine Jahre gehen nicht zu Ende."
13 [We also know that his Son is superior to angels because no one ever stated] [RHQ] [in the Scriptures] that God said to any angel [what he said to his Son], Sit [in the place of honor] next to me and rule with me [MTY] while I put all of your enemies completely under your control [MET]!
Zu welchem von den Engeln hat er je gesprochen: "Setze dich zu meiner Rechten, bis ich deine Feinde als Schemel dir zu Füßen lege"?
14 The angels are [only] spirits who serve [God] [RHQ]. [God] sends them [to earth] in order to help those he has saved (OR, those whom he will save).
Sind nicht vielmehr alle dienende Geister, ausgesandt zum Dienste derer, die das Heil erben sollen?
