1 Na mgbe ochie, Chineke gwara nna nna anyị ha okwu nʼoge dị iche iche site nʼọnụ ndị amụma, na site nʼụzọ ndị ọzọ dị iche iche.
God, having in the past spoken to the fathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways,

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,

having become as much better than the angels as the more excellent name he has inherited is better than theirs.

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?”
6 Ọzọkwa, mgbe o mere ka nwa mbụ ya bịa nʼụwa, o nyere iwu sị, “Ka ndị mmụọ ozi Chineke niile fee ya ofufe.”
When he again brings in the firstborn into the world he says, “Let all the angels of God worship him.”

Of the angels he says, “He makes his angels winds, and his servants a flame of fire.”
8 Ma banyere Ọkpara ahụ, ọ sịrị, “Ocheeze gị, O Chineke, ga-adịgide ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. Mkpara omume ziri ezi ka mkpara alaeze gị ga-abụ. (aiōn )
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 )
9 Ị hụrụ ezi omume nʼanya ma kpọọ ihe ọjọọ asị. Nʼihi nke a, Chineke, nke bụ Chineke gị, emeela ka ịdị elu karịa ndị ibe gị niile site na ite gị mmanụ nke ọṅụ.”
You have loved righteousness and hated iniquity; therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows.”
10 Ọ sịkwara, “Na mmalite, Onyenwe anyị, ọ bụ gị tọrọ ntọala ụwa, eluigwe bụkwa ọrụ aka gị.
And, “You, Lord, in the beginning, laid the foundation of the earth. The heavens are the works of your hands.
11 Ha ga-ala nʼiyi, ma gị onwe gị ga-anọgide. Ha niile ga-aka nka dịka uwe.
They will perish, but you continue. They all will grow old like a garment does.
12 Ị ga-apịakọta ha, gbanwee ha dị ka akwa. Ma gị onwe gị enweghị mgbanwe. Ọnụọgụgụ afọ gị agaghị enwe ọgwụgwụ ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.”
You will roll them up like a mantle, and they will be changed; but you are the same. Your years won’t fail.”

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?”
14 Ndị mmụọ ozi niile, ha abụghị mmụọ ndị na-ejere Chineke ozi, ndị a na-ezipụ ka ha jee ozi nʼihi ndị ahụ ga-eketa nzọpụta?
