Book 58 Hebrews
001:001 God, who in ancient days spoke to our forefathers in many
distinct messages and by various methods through the Prophets,
001:002 has at the end of these days spoken to us through a Son,
who is the pre-destined Lord of the universe, and through whom
He made the Ages.
001:003 He brightly reflects God's glory and is the exact representation
of His being, and upholds the universe by His all-powerful word.
After securing man's purification from sin He took His seat
at the right hand of the Majesty on high,
001:004 having become as far superior to the angels as the Name He
possesses by inheritance is more excellent than theirs.
001:005 For to which of the angels did God ever say, "My Son
art Thou: I have this day become Thy Father;" and again,
"I will be a Father to Him, and He shall be My Son"?
001:006 But speaking of the time when He once more brings His Firstborn
into the world, He says, "And let all God's angels worship Him."
001:007 Moreover of the angels He says, "He changes His angels into winds,
and His ministering servants into a flame of fire."
001:008 But of His Son, He says, "Thy throne, O God, is for ever
and for ever, and the sceptre of Thy Kingdom is a sceptre
of absolute justice.
001:009 Thou hast loved righteousness and hated lawlessness;
therefore God, Thy God, has anointed Thee with the oil
of gladness beyond Thy companions."
001:010 It is also of His Son that God says, "Thou, O Lord,
in the beginning didst lay the foundations of the earth,
and the heavens are the work of Thy hands.
001:011 The heavens will perish, but Thou remainest; and they will
all grow old like a garment,
