Hebrews 1:5–14

⁵This is because God never said to any of the angels,

“You are my Son.

Today I have become your Father.”

Nor did God say of any angel,

“I will be his Father,

and he will be my Son.”

⁶And when God brings his firstborn Son into the world, he says,

“Let all God’s angels worship him.” ⁿ

⁷This is what God said about the angels:

“God makes his angels become like winds.

He makes his servants become like flames of fire.”

⁸But God said this about his Son:

“God, your throne will last forever and ever.

You will rule your kingdom with fairness.

⁹You love right and hate evil,

so God has chosen you from among your friends;

he has set you apart with much joy.”

¹⁰God also says,

“Lord, in the beginning you made the earth,

and your hands made the skies.

¹¹They will be destroyed, but you will remain.

They will all wear out like clothes.

¹²You will fold them like a coat.

And, like clothes, you will change them.

But you never change,

and your life will never end.”

¹³And God never said this to an angel:

“Sit by me at my right side

until I put your enemies under your control.” ⁿ

¹⁴All the angels are spirits who serve God and are sent to help those who will receive salvation.
