Hebrews Chapter 1
Heb 1:1 GOD, who at many times and in many ways spoke anciently to the fathers by the prophets,
Heb 1:2 in these last days spoke to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, through whom also he made the worlds,
Heb 1:3 who being the brightness of his glory and the express image of his substance, and sustaining all things by the word of his power, having made a purification of sins, sat down on the right hand of the majesty on high,
Heb 1:4 being made as much greater than the angels as he has inherited a more excellent name than they.
Heb 1:5 For to which of the angels said he at any time, You are my Son, to-day have I begotten you? And again, I will be to him a Father and he shall be to me a Son?
Heb 1:6 And again, when he brings the first-born into the world he says, And let all the angels of God worship him.
Heb 1:7 And of the angels he says, Who makes his angels winds, and his ministers a flame of fire;
Heb 1:8 but of the Son, Thy throne, God, is forever and ever; the sceptre of thy kingdom is a sceptre of rectitude.
Heb 1:9 Thou hast loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, thy God, anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy companions.
Heb 1:10 And thou, Lord, in the beginning didst build from its foundations the earth, and the heavens are works of thy hands;
Heb 1:11 they shall perish, but thou shalt continue; and they shall all become old like a garment,
Heb 1:12 and like a mantle thou shalt fold them up, and they shall be changed, but thou art the same and thy years shall not fail.
Heb 1:13 And to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand till I make thy enemies thy footstool?
Heb 1:14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to serve on account of those who are about to inherit salvation?
