Hebrews 1

Revised Geneva Translation

1 Long ago, at various times and in diverse ways, God spoke to our fathers by the Prophets. In these last days, He has spoken to us by His Son,

² Whom He has made heir of all things. Through Whom He also made the world.

³ He, being the brightness of the Glory and the engraved form of His person and bearing up all things by His mighty Word, has purged our sins through Himself. And He sits at the right hand of the Majesty in the Highest Places.

⁴ And He is made so much more excellent than the angels, inasmuch as He has obtained a more excellent Name than they.

⁵ For to which of the angels has He said at any time, “You are My Son. This day I begat You.”? And again, “I will be His Father, and He shall be My Son.”?

⁶ And again, when He brings in His first begotten Son into the world, He says, “And let all the angels of God worship Him.”

⁷ And of the angels, He says, “He makes the spirits His messengers, and His ministers a flame of fire.”

⁸ But to the Son, He says, “O God, Your throne is forever and ever. The scepter of Your Kingdom is a scepter of righteousness.

⁹ “You have loved righteousness and hated iniquity. Therefore God - even Your God - has anointed You with the oil of gladness above Your associates.”10 And, “You, Lord, established the Earth in the beginning. And the heavens are the works of Your hands.

¹¹ “They shall perish, but You remain. And they all shall grow old, as does a garment.

¹² “And as a cloak, You shall fold them up. And they shall be changed. But You are the same. And Your years shall not fail.”

¹³ Also, to which of the angels has He said at any time, “Sit at My right hand, till I make Your enemies Your footstool.”?

¹⁴ Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for the sakes of those who shall be heirs of salvation?
