[2]Hath in these last days spoken to us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; |

[3]Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself made purification of our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; |
| [4]And This One altogether is greater than the angels according to how much more excellent is The Name Which He possesses than theirs |
[4]Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they. |
| [5]To which one for of the angels ever said Alaha "My Son You are I today have begotten You and again "I shall be to Him The Father and He shall be to Me The Son |
[5]For to which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son? |
| [6]Again but when He brings The Firstborn into the universe He says "Him shall worship all of them the angels of Alaha |
[6]And again, when he bringeth in the first-begotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him. |
| [7]About the angels but in this way He spoke "He makes His angels spirit and His ministers fire burning |
[7]And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire. |
| [8]Concerning The Son but He said "Your throne yours Oh Alaha to eternity of eternities a scepter straight the scepter of Your kingdom |
[8]But to the Son, he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a scepter of righteousness is the scepter of thy kingdom. |
| [9]You have loved righteousness and You have hated evil because of this has anointed You Alaha Your Alaha with the oil of joy more than Your companions |
[9]Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. |
| [10]And again You from the origin laid the foundation of the earth and the heavens the work of Your hands are |
[10]And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the works of thy hands. |
| [11]Those shall pass away and You remaining are and they all as a robe shall wear out |
[11]They shall perish; but thou remainest: and they all shall become old as doth a garment; |
| [12]And as a cloak You shall fold them those will be changed and You as are Yourself and Your years not shall end |
[12]And as a vesture wilt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed; but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail. |
| [13]To which? but of the angels ever said He "sit at My right until I put Your enemies a footstool under Your feet |
[13]But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thy enemies thy footstool? |
| [14]Not? behold all of them are spirits of service who are sent in the service for the sake of those who are going to inherit life |
[14]Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall inherit salvation? |
