2 sa etasmin śeṣakāle nijaputreṇāsmabhyaṁ kathitavān| sa taṁ putraṁ sarvvādhikāriṇaṁ kṛtavān tenaiva ca sarvvajaganti sṛṣṭavān| (aiōn )
but in these last dayes he hath spoken vnto vs by his sonne whom he hath made heyre of all thinges: by who also he made the worlde. (aiōn )
3 sa putrastasya prabhāvasya pratibimbastasya tattvasya mūrttiścāsti svīyaśaktivākyena sarvvaṁ dhatte ca svaprāṇairasmākaṁ pāpamārjjanaṁ kṛtvā ūrddhvasthāne mahāmahimno dakṣiṇapārśve samupaviṣṭavān|

4 divyadūtagaṇād yathā sa viśiṣṭanāmno 'dhikārī jātastathā tebhyo'pi śreṣṭho jātaḥ|
and is more excellent then the angels in as moche as he hath by inheritaunce obteyned an excellenter name then have they.
5 yato dūtānāṁ madhye kadācidīśvareṇedaṁ ka uktaḥ? yathā, "madīyatanayo 'si tvam adyaiva janito mayā|" punaśca "ahaṁ tasya pitā bhaviṣyāmi sa ca mama putro bhaviṣyati|"
For vnto which of the angels sayde he ateny tyme: Thou arte my sonne this daye be gate I the? And agayne: I will be his father and he shalbe my sonne.
6 aparaṁ jagati svakīyādvitīyaputrasya punarānayanakāle tenoktaṁ, yathā, "īśvarasya sakalai rdūtaireṣa eva praṇamyatāṁ|"
And agayne whe he bringeth in the fyrst begotten sonne in to the worlde he sayth: And all the angels of God shall worshippe him.

And of the angels he sayth: He maketh his angels spretes and his ministres flammes of fyre.
8 kintu putramuddiśya tenoktaṁ, yathā, "he īśvara sadā sthāyi tava siṁhāsanaṁ bhavet| yāthārthyasya bhaveddaṇḍo rājadaṇḍastvadīyakaḥ| (aiōn )
But vnto the sonne he sayth: God thy seate shalbe forever and ever. The cepter of thy kyngdome is a right cepter. (aiōn )
9 puṇye prema karoṣi tvaṁ kiñcādharmmam ṛtīyase| tasmād ya īśa īśaste sa te mitragaṇādapi| adhikāhlādatailena secanaṁ kṛtavān tava||"
Thou hast loved rightewesnes and hated iniquyte. Wherfore God which is thy God hath anoynted the with ye oyle of gladnes above thy felowes.
10 punaśca, yathā, "he prabho pṛthivīmūlam ādau saṁsthāpitaṁ tvayā| tathā tvadīyahastena kṛtaṁ gaganamaṇḍalaṁ|
And thou Lorde in the begynninge hast layde the foundacion of the erth. And the heves are the workes of thy hondes.
11 ime vinaṁkṣyatastvantu nityamevāvatiṣṭhase| idantu sakalaṁ viśvaṁ saṁjariṣyati vastravat|
They shall perisshe but thou shalt endure. They all shall wexe olde as doth a garment:
12 saṅkocitaṁ tvayā tattu vastravat parivartsyate| tvantu nityaṁ sa evāsī rnirantāstava vatsarāḥ||"
