NCV

NIV

1 In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets many times and in many different ways.
1 In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways,
2 But now in these last days God has spoken to us through his Son. God has chosen his Son to own all things, and through him he made the world.
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 reflects the glory of God and shows exactly what God is like. He holds everything together with his powerful word. When the Son made people clean from their sins, he sat down at the right side of God, the Great One 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 The Son became much greater than the angels, and God gave him a name that is much greater than theirs.
4 So he became as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs.
