Hebrews 1
- 1God having spoken in many parts and in many ways formerly to the fathers in the prophets,
- 2at the end of these days has spoken to us in [supplied: the person of the] Son, whom he has established heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
- 3who being [supplied: the] effulgence of his glory and [supplied: the] expression of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, having made [supplied: by himself] the purification of sins, set himself down on the right hand of the greatness on high,
- 4taking a place by so much better than the angels, as he inherits a name more excellent than they.
- 5For to which of the angels said he ever, *Thou* art my Son: this day have *I* begotten thee? and again, *I* will be to him for father, and *he* shall be to me for son?
- 6and again, when he brings in the firstborn into the habitable world, he says, And let all God's angels worship him.
- 7And as to the angels he says, Who makes his angels spirits and his ministers a flame of fire;
- 8but as to the Son, Thy throne, O God, [supplied: is] to the age of the age, and a sceptre of uprightness [supplied: is] the sceptre of thy kingdom.
- 9Thou hast loved righteousness and hast hated lawlessness; therefore God, thy God, has anointed thee with oil of gladness above thy companions.
- 10And, *Thou* in the beginning, Lord, hast founded the earth, and works of thy hands are the heavens.
- 11They shall perish, but *thou* continuest still; and they all shall grow old as a garment,
- 12and as a covering shalt thou roll them up, and they shall be changed; but *thou* art the Same, and thy years shall not fail.
- 13But as to which of the angels said he ever, Sit at my right hand until I put thine enemies [supplied: as] footstool of thy feet?
- 14Are they not all ministering spirits, sent out for service on account of those who shall inherit salvation?
