Hebrews 1

God’s Final Word in His Son

1God, after He 1spoke long ago to the fathers in 2the prophets in many portions and 3in many ways, 245in these last days 6has spoken to us 7in 8His Son, whom He appointed 9heir of all things, 10through whom also He made the 1112world. 313And He is the radiance of His glory and the exact 14representation of His nature, and 1516upholds all things by the word of His power. When He had made 17purification of sins, He 18sat down at the right hand of the 19Majesty on high, 4having become as much better than the angels, as He has inherited a more excellent 20name than they.

5For to which of the angels did He ever say, “21You are My Son, Today I have begotten You”? And again, “22I will be a Father to Him And He shall be a Son to Me”? 6And 23when He again 24brings the firstborn into 2526the world, He says, “27And let all the angels of God worship Him.” 7And of the angels He says, “28Who makes His angels winds, And His ministers a flame of fire.” 8But of the Son He says, “29Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, And the righteous scepter is the scepter of 30His kingdom.931You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; 32Therefore God, Your God, has 33anointed You With the oil of gladness above Your companions.” 10And, “34You, Lord, in the beginning laid the foundation of the earth, And the heavens are the works of Your hands;1135They will perish, but You remain; 36And they all will become old like a garment,1237And like a mantle You will roll them up; Like a garment they will also be changed. But You are 38the same, And Your years will not come to an end.” 13But to which of the angels has He ever said, “39Sit at My right hand, 40Until I make Your enemies A footstool for Your feet”? 14Are they not all 41ministering spirits, sent out to render service for the sake of those who will 42inherit 43salvation?
