NIRV

NIV

1 In the past, God spoke to our people through the prophets. He spoke at many times. He spoke in different ways.
1 In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways,
2 But in these last days, he has spoken to us through his Son. He is the one whom God appointed to receive all things. God made everything through him.
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 The Son is the gleaming brightness of God's glory. He is the exact likeness of God's being. He uses his powerful word to hold all things together. He provided the way for people to be made pure from sin. Then he sat down at the right hand of the King, the Majesty 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 So he became higher than the angels. The name he received is more excellent than theirs.
4 So he became as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs.
5 God never said to any of the angels, "You are my Son. Today I have become your Father." (Psalm 2:7) Or, "I will be his Father. And he will be my Son." (2 Samuel 7:14; 1 Chronicles 17:13)
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 God's first and only Son is over all things. When God brings him into the world, he says, "Let all of God's angels worship him." (Deuteronomy 32:43)
6 And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says, “Let all God’s angels worship him.”
