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, pqor again, I will be His Father, and He will be My Son? rs6When He again tbrings His firstborn into the world, uHe says, And all God’s angels must worship Him. vw7And about the angels He says:

He makes His angels winds, x

and His servants ya fiery flame, za

8but to bthe Son:

Your throne, God,

is forever and ever,

and the scepter of Your kingdom

is a scepter of justice. c

9You have loved righteousness

and hated lawlessness;

this is why God, Your God,

has anointed You

with the oil of joy d

rather than Your companions. ef

10And:

In the beginning, Lord,

You established the earth,

and the heavens are the works of Your hands; g

11they will perish, but You remain.

They will all wear out like clothing; h

12You will roll them up like a cloak, i

and they will be changed like a robe.

But You are the same,

and Your years will never end. jk

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

Sit at My right hand

until I make Your enemies Your footstool? lmn

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