But about the Son he says,

“Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever;

a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom.

You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness;

therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions

by anointing you with the oil of joy.”

10 He also says,

“In the beginning, Lord, you laid the foundations of the earth,

and the heavens are the work of your hands.

11 They will perish, but you remain;

they will all wear out like a garment.

12 You will roll them up like a robe;

like a garment they will be changed.

But you remain the same,

and your years will never end.”

13 To which of the angels did God ever say,

“Sit at my right hand

until I make your enemies

a footstool for your feet”?

14 Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?

Hebrews 1:8–14 — English Standard Version (ESV)

But of the Son he says,

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

the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom.

You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness;

therefore God, your God, has anointed you

with the oil of gladness beyond your companions.”

10 And,

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

and the heavens are the work of your hands;

11 they will perish, but you remain;

they will all wear out like a garment,

12 like a robe you will roll them up,

like a garment they will be changed.

But you are the same,

and your years will have no end.”

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

“Sit at my right hand

until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet”?

14 Are they not all ministering spirits sent out to serve for the sake of those who are to inherit salvation?

Hebrews 1:8–14 — King James Version (KJV 1900)

But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. 10 And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands: 11 They shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment; 12 And as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail. 13 But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool? 14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?

Hebrews 1:8–14 — New Living Translation (NLT)

But to the Son he says,

“Your throne, O God, endures forever and ever.

You rule with a scepter of justice.

You love justice and hate evil.

Therefore, O God, your God has anointed you,

pouring out the oil of joy on you more than on anyone else.”

10 He also says to the Son,

“In the beginning, Lord, you laid the foundation of the earth

and made the heavens with your hands.

11 They will perish, but you remain forever.

They will wear out like old clothing.

12 You will fold them up like a cloak

and discard them like old clothing.

But you are always the same;

you will live forever.”

13 And God never said to any of the angels,

“Sit in the place of honor at my right hand

until I humble your enemies,

making them a footstool under your feet.”

14 Therefore, angels are only servants—spirits sent to care for people who will inherit salvation.

Hebrews 1:8–14 — New Century Version (NCV)

But God said this about his Son:

“God, your throne will last forever and ever.

You will rule your kingdom with fairness.

You love right and hate evil,

so God has chosen you from among your friends;

he has set you apart with much joy.”

10 God also says,

“Lord, in the beginning you made the earth,

and your hands made the skies.

11 They will be destroyed, but you will remain.

They will all wear out like clothes.

12 You will fold them like a coat.

And, like clothes, you will change them.

But you never change,

and your life will never end.”

13 And God never said this to an angel:

“Sit by me at my right side

until I put your enemies under your control.”

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

Hebrews 1:8–14 — American Standard Version (ASV)

but of the Son he saith,

Thy throne, O God, is forever and ever;

And the sceptre of uprightness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.

Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity;

Therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee

With the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

10 And,

Thou, Lord, in the beginning didst lay the foundation of the earth,

And the heavens are the works of thy hands:

11 They shall perish; but thou continuest:

And they all shall wax old as doth a garment;

12 And as a mantle shalt thou roll them up,

As a garment, and they shall be changed:

But thou art the same,

And thy years shall not fail.

13 But of which of the angels hath he said at any time,

Sit thou on my right hand,

Till I make thine enemies the footstool of thy feet?

14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to do service for the sake of them that shall inherit salvation?

Hebrews 1:8–14 — 1890 Darby Bible (DARBY)

but as to the Son, Thy throne, O God, is to the age of the age, and a sceptre of uprightness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. Thou hast loved righteousness and hast hated lawlessness; therefore God, thy God, has anointed thee with oil of gladness above thy companions. 10 And, Thou in the beginning, Lord, hast founded the earth, and works of thy hands are the heavens. 11 They shall perish, but thou continuest still; and they all shall grow old as a garment, 12 and as a covering shalt thou roll them up, and they shall be changed; but thou art the Same, and thy years shall not fail. 13 But as to which of the angels said he ever, Sit at my right hand until I put thine enemies as footstool of thy feet? 14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent out for service on account of those who shall inherit salvation?

Hebrews 1:8–14 — GOD’S WORD Translation (GW)

But God said about his Son, 

“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever. 

The scepter in your kingdom is a scepter for justice. 

You have loved what is right and hated what is wrong. 

That is why God, your God, 

anointed you, rather than your companions, with the oil of joy.” 

10 God also said, 

“Lord, in the beginning you laid the foundation of the earth. 

With your own hands you made the heavens. 

11 They will come to an end, but you will live forever. 

They will all wear out like clothes. 

12 They will be taken off like a coat. 

You will change them like clothes. 

But you remain the same, and your life will never end. 

13 But God never said to any of the angels, 

“Take the honored position—the one next to me on the heavenly throne 

until I put your enemies under your control.” 

14 What are all the angels? They are spirits sent to serve those who are going to receive salvation.

and the scepter of Your kingdom

is a scepter of justice.

and hated lawlessness;

has anointed You

with the oil of joy

rather than Your companions.

In the beginning, Lord,

You established the earth,

and the heavens are the works of Your hands;

11 they will perish, but You remain.

They will all wear out like clothing;

12 You will roll them up like a cloak,

and they will be changed like a robe.

But You are the same,

and Your years will never end.

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

Sit at My right hand

until I make Your enemies Your footstool?

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

with the oil of gladness beyond your companions.”

10 And,

“In the beginning, Lord, you founded the earth,

and the heavens are the work of your hands;

11 they will perish, but you remain;

they will all wear out like clothing;

12 like a cloak you will roll them up,

and like clothing they will be changed.

But you are the same,

and your years will never end.”

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

but concerning the Son,

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

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

You 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.

10 And,

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

and the heavens are the works of your hands;

11 they will perish, but you continue,

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

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

But here is what he says about the Son.

“You are God. Your throne will last for ever and ever.

Your kingdom will be ruled by what is right.

You have loved what is right and hated what is evil.

So your God has placed you above your companions.

He has filled you with joy by pouring the sacred oil on your head.”

10 He also says,

“Lord, in the beginning you made the earth secure. You placed it on its foundations.

The heavens are the work of your hands.

11 They will pass away. But you remain.

They will all wear out like a piece of clothing.

12 You will roll them up like a robe.

They will be changed as a person changes clothes.

But you remain the same.

Your years will never end.”

until I put your enemies

under your control.”

Like a garment they will also be changed.

But You are the same,

And Your years will not come to an end.”

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

Sit at My right hand,

Until I make Your enemies

A footstool for Your feet”?
