Hebrews 1:2–13

²in these last days he has spoken to us by a Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, through whom also he made the world,^{b 3}who is the radiance of his glory and the representation of his essence, sustaining all things by the word of power.^c When he^* had made purification for sins through him, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, ⁴having become by so much better than the angels, by as much as he has inherited a more excellent name than theirs.

The Son Superior to the Angels

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

“You are my son,

today I have begotten you,”^d

and again,

“I will be his father^e,

and he will be my son^f”?^g

⁶And again, when he brings the firstborn into the world, he says,

“And let all the angels of God worship him.”^h

⁷And concerning the angels he says,

“The one who makes his angels winds,

and his servants a flame of fire,”ⁱ

⁸but concerning the Son,

“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever^j,

and the scepter of righteous is the scepter of your kingdom.

⁹You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness;

because of this God, your God, has anointed you

with the olive oil of joy more than your companions.^k

¹⁰And,

“You, Lord, laid the foundation of the earth in the beginning,

and the heavens are the works of your hands;

¹¹they will perish, but you continue,

and they will all become old like a garment,

¹²and like a robe you will roll them up,

and like a garment they will be changed;

but you are the same, and your years will not run out.”^l

¹³But to which of the angels has he ever said,

“Sit down at my right hand,

until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.”^m
