1 - In many parts, and many ways, God of old having spoken to the fathers in the prophets,

2 - in these last days did speak to us in a Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He did make the ages;

3 - who being the brightness of the glory, and the impress of His subsistence, bearing up also the all things by the saying of his might--through himself having made a cleansing of our sins, sat down at the right hand of the greatness in the highest,

4 - having become so much better than the messengers, as he did inherit a more excellent name than they.

5 - For to which of the messengers said He ever, `My Son thou art--I to-day have begotten thee?' and again, `I will be to him for a father, and he shall be to Me for a son?'

6 - and when again He may bring in the first-born to the world, He saith, `And let them bow before him--all messengers of God;'

7 - and unto the messengers, indeed, He saith, `Who is making His messengers spirits, and His ministers a flame of fire;'

8 - and unto the Son: `Thy throne, O God, <FI>is<Fi> to the age of the age; a sceptre of righteousness <FI>is<Fi> the sceptre of thy reign;

9 - thou didst love righteousness, and didst hate lawlessness; because of this did He anoint thee--God, thy God--with oil of gladness above thy partners;'

10 - and, `Thou, at the beginning, Lord, the earth didst found, and a work of thy hands are the heavens;

11 - these shall perish, and Thou dost remain, and all, as a garment, shall become old,

12 - and as a mantle Thou shall roll them together, and they shall be changed, and Thou art the same, and Thy years shall not fail.'

13 - And unto which of the messengers said He ever, `Sit at My right hand, till I may make thine enemies thy footstool?'

14 - are they not all spirits of service--for ministration being sent forth because of those about to inherit salvation?
