Hebrews 1
New King James Version
God’s Supreme Revelation(A)
1 God, who [a]at various times and (B)in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, 2 has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the [b]worlds; 3 (C)who being the brightness of His glory and the express (D)image of His person, and (E)upholding all things by the word of His power, (F)when He had [c]by Himself [d]purged [e]our sins, (G)sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, 4 having become so much better than the angels, as (H)He has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
The Son Exalted Above Angels
5 For to which of the angels did He ever say:
(I)“You are My Son,
Today I have begotten You”?
And again:
(J)“I will be to Him a Father,
And He shall be to Me a Son”?
6 But when He again brings (K)the firstborn into the world, He says:
(L)“Let all the angels of God worship Him.”
7 And of the angels He says:
(M)“Who makes His angels spirits
And His ministers a flame of fire.”
8 But to the Son He says:
(N)“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever;
A [f]scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom.
9 You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness;
Therefore God, Your God, (O)has anointed You
With the oil of gladness more than Your companions.”
10 And:
(P)“You, Lord, in the beginning laid the foundation of the earth,
And the heavens are the work of Your hands.
11 (Q)They will perish, but You remain;
And (R)they will all grow old like a garment;
12 Like a cloak You will fold them up,
And they will be changed.
But You are the (S)same,
And Your years will not fail.”
13 But to which of the angels has He ever said:
(T)“Sit at My right hand,
Till I make Your enemies Your footstool”?
14 (U)Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who will (V)inherit salvation?

Gud har talat genom Sonen
1 (A) I forna tider talade Gud många gånger och på många sätt till fäderna genom profeterna, 2 (B) men nu i den sista tiden har han talat till oss genom sin Son. Honom har han insatt som arvinge till allt, och genom honom har han också skapat universum[a]. 3 (C) Sonen är utstrålningen av Guds härlighet och hans väsens avbild, och han bär allt med sitt mäktiga ord. Och sedan han fullbordat en rening från synderna sitter han nu på Majestätets högra sida i höjden.
Sonen är större än änglarna
4 (D) Sonen är så mycket större än änglarna som namnet han har ärvt är högre än deras. 5 (E) Till vilken av änglarna har Gud någonsin sagt:[b]
Du är min Son,
jag har fött dig i dag?
Eller:
Jag ska vara hans Far,
och han ska vara min Son?
6 Men när han låter den Förstfödde träda in i världen, säger han:[c]
Alla Guds änglar
ska tillbe honom.
7 Om änglarna säger han:
Han gör sina änglar till vindar
och sina tjänare till eldslågor.[d]
8 Men om Sonen säger han:
Gud, din tron består
i evigheters evighet,
och ditt rikes spira
är rättens spira.[e]
9 Du älskar rättfärdighet
och hatar orättfärdighet.
Därför, Gud, har din Gud
smort dig med glädjens olja
mer än dina medbröder.
10 (F) Och:
I begynnelsen lade du, Herre,
jordens grund,
och himlarna är
dina händers verk.[f]
11 De ska gå under,
men du ska bestå.
De ska alla nötas ut som kläder,
12 du ska rulla ihop dem
som en mantel
och de ska bytas ut
som kläder.
Men du är densamme,
och dina år har inget slut.
13 (G) Till vilken av änglarna har han någonsin sagt:[g]
Sätt dig på min högra sida
tills jag lagt dina fiender
som en pall under dina fötter?
14 (H) Är inte änglarna andar i Guds tjänst, utsända för att hjälpa dem som ska ärva frälsningen?
Hebrews 1
English Standard Version
The Supremacy of God's Son
1 Long ago, at many times and (A)in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, 2 but (B)in these last days (C)he has spoken to us by (D)his Son, whom he appointed (E)the heir of all things, (F)through whom also he created (G)the world. 3 He is the radiance of the glory of God and (H)the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. (I)After making purification for sins, (J)he sat down (K)at the right hand of the Majesty on high, 4 having become as much superior to angels as the name (L)he has inherited is more excellent than theirs.
5 For to which of the angels did God ever say,
(M)“You are my Son,
today I have begotten you”?
Or again,
(N)“I will be to him a father,
and he shall be to me a son”?
6 And again, when he brings (O)the firstborn into the world, he says,
(P)“Let all God's angels worship him.”
7 Of the angels he says,
(Q)“He makes his angels winds,
and his ministers a flame of fire.”
8 But of the Son he says,
(R)“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever,
the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom.
9 You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness;
therefore God, your God, (S)has anointed you
with (T)the oil of gladness beyond your companions.”
10 And,
(U)“You, Lord, laid the foundation of the earth in the beginning,
and the heavens are the work of your hands;
11 they will perish, but you remain;
they will all wear out like a garment,
12 like a robe you will roll them up,
like a garment they will be changed.[a]
But you are (V)the same,
and your years will have no end.”
13 And to which of the angels has he ever said,
14 Are they not all ministering spirits (Y)sent out to serve for the sake of those who are to (Z)inherit salvation?
