Hebrews 1:5-14
The Son Superior to Angels
[5] For to which of the angels did God ever say,
“You are my Son;
today I have become your Father”?
Or again,
“I will be his Father,
and he will be my Son”?
[6] And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says,
“Let all God’s angels worship him.”
[7] In speaking of the angels he says,
“He makes his angels spirits,
and his servants flames of fire.”
[8] 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.
[9] 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?
