希伯來書 1
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
劃時代的啟示
1 在古代，上帝曾藉著先知以各種方式多次向我們的祖先說話； 2 在這世界的末期，祂又藉著自己的兒子親自向我們說話。上帝早已立祂承受萬物，並藉著祂創造了宇宙萬物。 3 祂正是上帝榮耀的光輝，是上帝本體的真像。祂用自己充滿能力的話語維繫萬物。祂洗淨了世人的罪之後，便坐在天上至高上帝的右邊。 4 祂既承受了比天使更高的名分，就遠超越天使。
5 上帝從未對任何一個天使說：
「你是我的兒子，我今日成為你父親。」
或說：
「我要作你的父親，你要作我的兒子。」
6 上帝差遣祂的長子到世上來時，說：
「上帝的天使都要敬拜祂。」
7 上帝提到天使的時候，也只是說：
「上帝使祂的天使成為風，使祂的僕役成為火焰。」
8 但論到祂的兒子，祂卻說：
「上帝啊，你的寶座永遠長存，
你以公義的杖執掌王權。
9 你喜愛公義，憎惡邪惡。
所以上帝，你的上帝，
用喜樂之油膏你，使你超過同伴。」
10 此外又說：
「主啊，太初你奠立大地的根基，
親手創造諸天。
11 天地都要消亡，但你永遠長存。
天地都會像衣服漸漸破舊，
12 你要像捲外衣一樣把天地捲起來。
天地將如衣服一樣被更換，
但你永遠不變，
你的年日永無窮盡。」
13 上帝從未對任何一個天使說：
「你坐在我的右邊，
等我使你的仇敵成為你的腳凳。」
14 天使豈不都是服役的靈嗎？他們奉差遣，豈不是去為那些將要承受救恩的人服務嗎？
Hebrews 1
1599 Geneva Bible
The Epistle to the Hebrews
The drift and end of this Epistle, is to show that Jesus Christ the Son of God both God and man, is that true eternal and only Prophet, King, and high Priest, that was shadowed by the figures of the old Law, and is now indeed exhibited: of whom the whole Church ought to be taught, governed and sanctified.
1 2 To show that the doctrine which Christ brought, is most excellent, in that it is the knitting up of all prophecies, 4 he advanceth him above the Angels: 10 And proveth by divers testimonies of the Scripture, that he far passeth all others.
1 At [a]sundry times and in divers manners God spake in the old time to our fathers by the Prophets: in these [b]last days he hath spoken unto us by his [c]Son,
2 [d]Whom he hath made [e]heir of all things, by whom also he made the [f]worlds,
3 (A)Who being the [g]brightness of the glory, and the engraved form of his [h]person, and [i]bearing up all things by his mighty word: [j]hath by himself purged our sins: and [k]sitteth at the right hand of the Majesty in the highest places,
4 [l]And is made so much more excellent than the Angels, inasmuch as he hath obtained a more excellent [m]Name than they.
5 [n]For unto which of the Angels said he at any time, (B)Thou art my Son, [o]this day begat I thee? and again, I (C)will be his Father, and he shall be my Son:
6 And [p]again, when he bringeth in his first begotten Son into the world, he saith, (D)And let all the Angels of God worship him.
7 And of the Angels he saith, (E)He maketh the spirits his [q]messengers, and his ministers a flame [r]of fire.
8 But unto the Son he saith, (F)O God, thy [s]throne is forever [t]and ever: the scepter of thy kingdom is a [u]scepter of righteousness.
9 Thou hast loved righteousness and [v]hated iniquity. Wherefore God, even thy God, hath [w]anointed thee with the oil of gladness, above thy [x]fellows.
10 And, (G)Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast [y]established the earth, and the heavens are the works of thine hands.
11 They shall perish, but thou dost remain, and they all shall wax old as doth a garment,
12 And as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.
13 Unto which also of the Angels said he at any time, (H)Sit at my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?
14 Are they not all [z]ministering spirits, sent forth to minister, for their sakes which shall be heirs of salvation?
