< Hebrews 1 >

1 God, having in the past spoken to the fathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways,
God, who in ancient times, spoke often, and in various ways, to the fathers, by the prophets,
2 has at the end of these days spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, through 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 His Son is the radiance of his glory, the very image of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, who, when he had by himself purified us of 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 having become as much better than the angels as the more excellent name he has inherited is better than theirs.
being exalted as far above the angels, as the name he has inherited, is more excellent than theirs.
5 For to which of the angels did he say at any time, “You are my Son. Today I have become your father?” and again, “I will be to him a Father, and he will 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 When he again brings in the firstborn into the world he says, “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 Of the angels he says, “He makes his angels winds, and his servants a flame of fire.”
Whereas, concerning angels, he says, "Who makes winds his angels, and flaming fire his ministers."
8 But of the Son he says, “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever. The sceptre of uprightness is the sceptre of your 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 You have loved righteousness and hated iniquity; therefore God, 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 associates."
10 And, “You, Lord, in the beginning, laid the foundation of the earth. The heavens are the works of your 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 will perish, but you continue. They all will grow old like a garment does.
They shall perish, but thou dost remain; and they, as a garment, shall grow old;
12 You will roll them up like a mantle, and they will be changed; but you are the same. Your years won’t 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 which of the angels has he told at any time, “Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet?”
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 Aren’t they all serving spirits, sent out to do service for the sake of those who will inherit salvation?
"Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall inherit salvation?"
