Hebrews 1 - Amplified Bible(AMP)

God’s Final Word in His Son

1God, having spoken to the fathers long ago in the prophets in many separate revelations, and in many ways,

2has in these last days spoken to us in His Son, whom He appointed heir and lawful owner of all things, through whom also He created the universe.

3The Son is the radiance and only expression of the glory of God, and the exact representation and perfect imprint of His essence, and upholding and maintaining and propelling all things by His powerful word. When He had accomplished purification from sins and established our freedom from guilt, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,

4having become as much superior to angels, since He has inherited a more excellent and glorious name than they.

5For to which of the angels did the Father ever say,

“You are My Son,

Today I have begotten (fathered) You”?

And again,

“I shall be a Father to Him

And He shall be a Son to Me”?

6 And when He again brings the firstborn into the world, He says,

“And all the angels of God are to worship Him.”

7And concerning the angels He says,

“Who makes His angels winds,

And His ministering servants flames of fire.”

8But about the Son,

“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever,

And the scepter of righteousness is the scepter of His kingdom.

9“You have loved righteousness and have hated lawlessness.

Therefore God, Your God, Has anointed You

With the oil of gladness above Your companions.”

10And,

“You, Lord, laid the foundation of the earth in the beginning,

And the heavens are the works of Your hands;

11They will perish, but You remain;

And they will all wear out like a garment,

12And like a robe You will roll them up;

Like a garment they will be changed.

But You are the same,

And Your years will never end.”

13But to which of the angels has the Father ever said,

“Sit at My right hand,

Until I make your enemies

A footstool for your feet”?

14Are not all the angels ministering spirits sent out to serve (accompany, protect) those who will inherit salvation?
