Hebrews 1:1-6

BBE

NIV

1 In times past the word of God came to our fathers through the prophets, in different parts and in different ways;
1 In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways,
2 But now, at the end of these days, it has come to us through his Son, to whom he has given all things for a heritage, and through whom he made the order of the generations;
2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom also he made the universe.
3 Who, being the outshining of his glory, the true image of his substance, supporting all things by the word of his power, having given himself as an offering making clean from sins, took his seat at the right hand of God in heaven;
3 The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.
4 Having become by so much better than the angels, as the name which is his heritage is more noble than theirs.
4 So he became as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs.
5 To which of the angels did God say at any time, You are my Son, this day I have given you being? or, I will be his Father, and he will be my Son?
5 For to which of the angels did God ever say, “You are my Son; today I have become your Father” ? Or again, “I will be his Father, and he will be my Son” ?
6 And again, when he is sending his only Son into the world, he says, Let all the angels of God give him worship.
6 And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says, “Let all God’s angels worship him.”
