Hebrews 1

¹Long ago , at many times and in many ways , God spoke to our fathers by the prophets ,

²but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son , whom he appointed the heir of all things , through whom also he created the world .

³He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature , and he upholds the universe by the word of his power . After making purification for sins , he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high ,

⁴having become as much superior to angels as the name he has inherited is more excellent than theirs .

⁵For to which of the angels did God ever say , You are my Son , today I have begotten you ? Or again , I will be to him a father , and he shall be to me a son ?

⁶And again , when he brings the firstborn into the world , he says , Let all God’s angels worship him .

⁷Of the angels he says , He makes his angels winds , and his ministers a flame of fire .

⁸But of the Son he says, Your throne , O God , is forever and ever , the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom .

⁹You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness ; therefore God , your God , has anointed you with the oil of gladness beyond your companions .

¹⁰And , You , Lord , laid the foundation of the earth in the beginning , and the heavens are the work of your hands ;

¹¹they will perish , but you remain ; they will all wear out like a garment ,

¹²like 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 .

¹³And to which of the angels has he ever said , Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet ?

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