Berean Standard Bible

Hebrews 1:3-10

3The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of His nature, upholding all things by His powerful word. After He had provided purification for sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high. 4So He became as far superior to the angels as the name He has inherited is excellent beyond theirs. 5For to which of the angels did God ever say:

“You are My Son;today I have become Your Father”1?

Or again:

“I will be His Father,and He will be My Son”2?

6And again, when God brings His firstborn into the world, He says:

“Let all God’s angels worship Him.”3

7Now about the angels He says:

“He makes His angels winds,His servants flames of fire.”4

8But about the Son He says:

“Your throne, O God, endures forever and ever,and justice is the scepter of Your kingdom.9You have loved righteousnessand hated wickedness;therefore God, Your God, has anointed Youabove Your companions with the oil of joy.”5

10And:

“In the beginning, O Lord, You laid the foundations of the earth,and the heavens are the work of Your hands.
