Hebrews 1:5-9
King James Version
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.

The Son Exalted Above Angels
5 For to which of the angels did He ever say:
(A)“You are My Son,
Today I have begotten You”?
And again:
(B)“I will be to Him a Father,
And He shall be to Me a Son”?
6 But when He again brings (C)the firstborn into the world, He says:
(D)“Let all the angels of God worship Him.”
7 And of the angels He says:
(E)“Who makes His angels spirits
And His ministers a flame of fire.”
8 But to the Son He says:
(F)“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever;
A [a]scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom.
9 You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness;
Therefore God, Your God, (G)has anointed You
With the oil of gladness more than Your companions.”
