| [1]FROM of old God spoke to our fathers by the prophets in every manner and in all ways; and in these latter days, he has spoken to us by his Son; |
[1]IN manifold portions,ⓘ and in all manners, spake Aloha with our fathers by the prophets from the first: |
| [2]Whom he has appointed heir of all things, and by whom also he made the worlds; |
[2]But in these last days he hath spoken with us by his Son; whom he constituted the heir of every thing, and by whom he made the worlds; |
| [3]For he is the brightness of his glory and the express image of his being, upholding all things by the power of his word; and when he had through his person, cleansed our sins, then he sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; |
[3]Who himself is the resplendence of his glory, and the image of his Being, and upholdeth all [things] by the power of his word; and he, in his [own] person, hath made purification of sins, and hath sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.ⓘ |
| [4]And he is altogether greater than the angels, just as the name he has inherited is a more excellent name than theirs. |
[4]And this [person] is altogether more excellent than the angels, by so much as the name he hath inherited [is] more excellent than theirs. |
| [5]For to which of the angels has God at any time, said You are my Son, this day have I begotten you? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son? |
[5]For unto which one from [among] the angels at any time said Aloha, Thou art MY SON; I to-day have begotten thee? |
| [6]And again, when he brought the Firstbegotten into the world, he said, Let all the angels of God worship him. |
[6]And again, I will be to him the Father, and he shall be to me the Son? But again, when bringing in the Firstbegotten into the world, he said, Let all the angels of Aloha worship him. |
| [7]And of the angels he said thus, Who makes his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire. |
[7]But concerning the angels, thus hath he spoken: Who hath made his angels spirit, and his ministers a flaming fire. |
| [8]But of the Son he said, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the scepter of thy kingdom is a right scepter. |
[8]But concerning the Son he hath said, Thy throne, Aloha, [is] for ever and ever, a rightⓘ sceptre [is] the sceptre of thy kingdom. |
| [9]You have loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore, God, even your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness more than your fellows. |
[9]Thou hast loved righteousness, and hast hated iniquity; therefore Aloha thy God hath anointed thee with the oil of exultation more [abundantly] than thy fellows. |
| [10]And from the very beginning you have laid the foundations of the earth; and the heavens are the works of your hands: |
[10]And again, Thou in the beginning hast laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of thy hands. |
| [11]They shall pass away; but you shall endure; and they all shall wear out like a garment; |
[11]They pass away, but thou art enduring; and all they as vestments shall become old, and as a garment thou shalt fold them up, |
| [12]And as a cloak you shall fold them up, and they shall be changed: but you are the same, and your years shall never end. |
[12]They shall be changed; but thou [shalt be] as Thou Art, and thy years shall not fail.ⓘ |
| [13]For to which of the angels has he at any time said, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool under your feet? |
[13]But to which from [among] the angels hath he said at any time, Sit at my right hand, until I put thine adversaries a footstool beneath thy feet? |
| [14]Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth in the service for those who shall inherit life everlasting? |
[14]Are not all they spirits of ministration, who [are] sent forth in service on behalf of those who are hereafter to inherit salvation? |
