and he will be my Son”?
6 And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says,
“Let all God’s angels worship him.”
7 In speaking of the angels he says,
“He makes his angels spirits,
and his servants flames of fire.”
8 But about the Son he says,
“Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever;
a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom.

Hebrews 1:5–8 — New Living Translation (NLT)
5 For God never said to any angel what he said to Jesus:
“You are my Son.
Today I have become your Father.”
God also said,
“I will be his Father,
and he will be my Son.”
6 And when he brought his supreme Son into the world, God said,
“Let all of God’s angels worship him.”
7 Regarding the angels, he says,
“He sends his angels like the winds,
his servants like flames of fire.”
8 But to the Son he says,
“Your throne, O God, endures forever and ever.
You rule with a scepter of justice.

5 This is because God never said to any of the angels,
“You are my Son.
Today I have become your Father.”

“I will be his Father,
and he will be my Son.”
6 And when God brings his firstborn Son into the world, he says,
“Let all God’s angels worship him.”
7 This is what God said about the angels:
“God makes his angels become like winds.
He makes his servants become like flames of fire.”
8 But God said this about his Son:
“God, your throne will last forever and ever.
You will rule your kingdom with fairness.

Thou art my Son,

And he shall be to me a Son?

And let all the angels of God worship him.
7 And of the angels he saith,
Who maketh his angels winds,
And his ministers a flame of fire:
8 but of the Son he saith,
Thy throne, O God, is forever and ever;
And the sceptre of uprightness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
