Hebrews 1:1-4

Common English Bible CEB

1 In the past, God spoke through the prophets to our ancestors in many times and many ways.

2 In these final days, though, he spoke to us through a Son. God made his Son the heir of everything and created the world through him.

3 The Son is the light of God's glory and the imprint of God's being. He maintains everything with his powerful message. After he carried out the cleansing of people from their sins, he sat down at the right side of the highest majesty.

4 And the Son became so much greater than the other messengers, such as angels, that he received a more important title than theirs.

New Revised Standard NRS

1 Long ago God spoke to our ancestors in many and various ways by the prophets,

2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by a Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, through whom he also created the worlds.

3 He is the reflection of God's glory and the exact imprint of God's very being, and he sustains all things by his powerful word. When he had made purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,

4 having become as much superior to angels as the name he has inherited is more excellent than theirs.
