Ebrei 1
La Bibbia della Gioia
Dio ci ha parlato
1 Molto tempo fa, Dio parlò parecchie volte e in modi diversi ai nostri antenati per mezzo dei profeti, rivelando loro a poco a poco i suoi piani.
2 Ora, invece, ai giorni nostri, che sono gli ultimi, ha parlato a noi per mezzo di suo Figlio, al quale ha dato tutto e per mezzo del quale ha creato lʼuniverso.
3 Questo Figlio è il riflesso della gloria di Dio, lʼimmagine perfetta di ciò che Dio è. È lui che regola lʼuniverso con la forza straordinaria del suo comando. È lui che, dopo essere morto per purificare gli uomini dai loro peccati, si è seduto al posto dʼonore, alla destra del grande Dio del cielo.
4 Perciò egli è diventato di gran lunga superiore agli angeli; ciò è provato dal fatto che il nome «Figlio di Dio», che Dio Padre gli ha dato, è molto più importante di quello degli angeli. 5-6 Infatti, Dio non ha mai detto a nessun angelo ciò che disse a Gesù, e cioè: «Tu sei mio Figlio, oggi ti ho dato la vita».
E di nuovo, parlando di Gesù: «Io sarò suo Padre ed egli sarà mio Figlio». E unʼaltra volta, quando stava per mandare il suo Figlio primogenito sulla terra: «Tutti gli angeli di Dio devono adorarlo!»
7 Dio descrive i suoi angeli simili a messaggeri veloci come il vento, servi fatti di lingue di fuoco; 8 ma di suo Figlio dice: «Il tuo regno, o Dio, durerà in eterno. I tuoi ordini sono sempre giusti e retti. 9 Tu ami la giustizia e non sopporti lʼingiustizia. Per questo, o Dio, il tuo Dio ti ha consacrato con gioia, preferendoti a qualsiasi altro».
10 Dio chiamò Gesù «Signore», quando disse: «Tu, Signore, da principio hai creato la terra; e i cieli sono opera delle tue mani. 11 Essi scompariranno nel nulla, ma tu resterai per sempre. Invecchieranno come un vestito, 12 e un giorno li arrotolerai come un mantello e saranno cambiati. Ma tu rimani sempre lo stesso e i tuoi anni non avranno fine».
13 Quando mai Dio ha detto a un angelo ciò che disse a suo Figlio, e cioè: «Siedi qui vicino a me, al posto dʼonore, finché non abbia fatto dei tuoi nemici lo sgabello dei tuoi piedi?»
14 Mai, perché gli angeli sono soltanto messaggeri spirituali al servizio di Dio, mandati ad aiutare quelli che devono ricevere la sua salvezza.
Hebrews 1
Holman Christian Standard Bible
The Nature of the Son
1 Long ago God spoke(A) to the fathers by the prophets(B) at different times and in different ways.(C) 2 In these last days,(D) He has spoken to us by His Son. God has appointed Him heir of all things and made the universe[a](E) through Him. 3 The Son is the radiance[b] of God’s glory and the exact expression[c] of His nature, sustaining all things by His powerful word. After making purification for sins,[d] He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.[e](F) 4 So He became higher in rank than the angels, just as the name He inherited is superior to theirs.(G)
The Son Superior to Angels
5 For to which of the angels did He ever say, You are My Son; today I have become Your Father,[f][g] or again, I will be His Father, and He will be My Son?(H)[h] 6 When He again[i] brings His firstborn into the world,(I) He says, And all God’s angels must worship Him.(J)[j] 7 And about the angels He says:
8 but to[n] the Son:
Your throne, God,
is forever and ever,
and the scepter of Your kingdom
is a scepter of justice.(L)
9 You have loved righteousness
and hated lawlessness;
this is why God, Your God,
has anointed You
with the oil of joy(M)
rather than Your companions.[o][p]
10 And:
In the beginning, Lord,
You established the earth,
and the heavens are the works of Your hands;(N)
11 they will perish, but You remain.
They will all wear out like clothing;(O)
12 You will roll them up like a cloak,[q]
and they will be changed like a robe.
But You are the same,
and Your years will never end.(P)[r]
13 Now to which of the angels has He ever said:
14 Are they not all ministering spirits sent out to serve those who are going to inherit salvation?(R)

Hebrews 1
King James Version
1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
2 Hath in these last days spoken unto 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 purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:
4 Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
5 For unto 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 And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.
7 And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
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, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands:
11 They shall perish; but thou remainest; 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 But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool?
14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?
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?
