Hebreos 1
La Biblia de las Américas
Dios habla por el Hijo su palabra final al hombre
1 Dios, habiendo hablado(A) hace mucho tiempo, en muchas ocasiones[a] y de muchas maneras(B) a los padres por[b] los profetas(C), 2 en estos últimos días[c](D) nos ha hablado(E) por[d] su Hijo(F), a quien constituyó heredero de todas las cosas(G), por medio de quien hizo(H) también el universo[e](I). 3 Él es[f] el resplandor de su gloria y la expresión[g] exacta de su naturaleza(J), y sostiene[h] todas las cosas por la palabra de su poder(K). Después de llevar a cabo la purificación de los pecados(L), se sentó a la diestra(M) de la Majestad en las alturas(N), 4 siendo mucho mejor que[i] los ángeles, por cuanto ha heredado un nombre más excelente(O) que ellos.
El Hijo, superior a los ángeles
5 Porque ¿a cuál de los ángeles dijo Dios jamás:
Hijo mío eres tú,
yo te he engendrado hoy(P);
y otra vez:
Yo seré Padre para Él,
y Él será Hijo para mí(Q)?
6 Y de nuevo, cuando trae[j] al Primogénito al mundo[k](R), dice:
Y adórenle todos los Ángeles de Dios(S).
7 Y de los ángeles dice:
8 Pero del Hijo dice:
Tu trono, oh Dios, es por los siglos de los siglos,
y cetro de equidad es el cetro de tu[m] reino(U).
9 Has amado la justicia y aborrecido la iniquidad;
por lo cual Dios, tu Dios, te ha ungido(V)
con oleo de alegría(W) más que a tus compañeros(X).
10 Y:
Tú, Señor, en el principio pusiste los cimientos de la tierra,
y los cielos son obra[n] de tus manos(Y);
11 (Z)Ellos perecerán, pero tú permaneces;
y todos ellos como una vestidura se envejecerán(AA),
12 y como un manto los enrollarás;
como una vestidura serán mudados(AB).
Pero tú eres el mismo,
y tus años no tendrán fin(AC).
13 Pero, ¿a cuál de los ángeles ha dicho jamás:
14 ¿No son todos ellos espíritus ministradores[o](AF), enviados para servir por causa de los que heredarán(AG) la salvación(AH)?

Hebrews 1
Living Bible
1 Long ago God spoke in many different ways to our fathers through the prophets, in visions, dreams, and even face to face,[a] telling them little by little about his plans.
2 But now in these days he has spoken to us through his Son to whom he has given everything and through whom he made the world and everything there is.
3 God’s Son shines out with God’s glory, and all that God’s Son is and does marks him as God. He regulates the universe by the mighty power of his command. He is the one who died to cleanse us and clear our record of all sin, and then sat down in highest honor beside the great God of heaven.
4 Thus he became far greater than the angels, as proved by the fact that his name “Son of God,” which was passed on to him from his Father, is far greater than the names and titles of the angels. 5-6 For God never said to any angel, “You are my Son, and today I have given you the honor that goes with that name.”[b] But God said it about Jesus. Another time he said, “I am his Father and he is my Son.” And still another time—when his firstborn Son came to earth—God said, “Let all the angels of God worship him.”
7 God speaks of his angels as messengers swift as the wind and as servants made of flaming fire; 8 but of his Son he says, “Your Kingdom, O God, will last forever and ever; its commands are always just and right. 9 You love right and hate wrong; so God, even your God, has poured out more gladness upon you than on anyone else.”
10 God also called him “Lord” when he said, “Lord, in the beginning you made the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. 11 They will disappear into nothingness, but you will remain forever. They will become worn out like old clothes, 12 and some day you will fold them up and replace them. But you yourself will never change, and your years will never end.”
13 And did God ever say to an angel, as he does to his Son, “Sit here beside me in honor until I crush all your enemies beneath your feet”?
14 No, for the angels are only spirit-messengers sent out to help and care for those who are to receive his salvation.

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?
