Hebrews 1:5–14

THE SON SUPERIOR TO ANGELS

⁵For to which of the angels did he ever say,

You are my Son;

today I have become your Father,^FG

or again,

I will be his Father,

and he will be my Son?^Hk

⁶Again, when he^I brings his firstborn into the world,^l he says,

And let all God’s angels worship him.^Jm

⁷And about the angels he says:

He makes his angels winds,^K

and his servants^L a fiery flame,^Mn

⁸but to^N the Son:

Your throne, God,

is forever and ever,

and the scepter of your kingdom

is a scepter of justice.^o

⁹You have loved righteousness

and hated lawlessness;

this is why God, your God,

has anointed you

with the oil of joy^p

beyond your companions.^OP

¹⁰And:

In the beginning, Lord,

you established the earth,

and the heavens are the works of your hands;^q

¹¹they will perish, but you remain.

They will all wear out like clothing;^r

¹²you will roll them up like a cloak,^Q

and they will be changed like clothing.

But you are the same,

and your years will never end.^Rs

¹³Now to which of the angels has he ever said:

Sit at my right hand

until I make your enemies your footstool?^St

¹⁴Are they not all ministering spirits sent out to serve those who are going to inherit salvation?^u
