Hebrews 1:1–9

God’s Final Word in His Son

¹God, after He ^aspoke long ago to the fathers in ^bthe prophets in many portions and ^cin many ways,

^21ain these last days ^bhas spoken to us ²in ^cHis Son, whom He appointed ^dheir of all things, ^ethrough whom also He made the ^3fworld.

³¹And He is the radiance of His glory and the exact ^arepresentation of His nature, and ^2bupholds all things by the word of His power. When He had made ^cpurification of sins, He ^dsat down at the right hand of the ^eMajesty on high,

⁴having become as much better than the angels, as He has inherited a more excellent ^aname than they.

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

“^aYou are My Son,

Today I have begotten You”?

And again,

“^bI will be a Father to Him

And He shall be a Son to Me”?

⁶And ¹when He again ^abrings the firstborn into ^2bthe world, He says,

“^cAnd let all the angels of God worship Him.”

⁷And of the angels He says,

“^aWho makes His angels winds,

And His ministers a flame of fire.”

⁸But of the Son He says,

“^aYour throne, O God, is forever and ever,

And the righteous scepter is the scepter of ¹His kingdom.

⁹“^aYou have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness;

^bTherefore God, Your God, has ^canointed You

With the oil of gladness above Your companions.”
