Hebrews 1

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.

5 After all, when did God ever say to any of the angels: You are my Son. Today I have become your Father? Or, even, I will be his Father, and he will be my Son?

6 But then, when he brought his firstborn into the world, he said, All of God's angels must worship him.

7 He talks about the angels: He's the one who uses the spirits for his messengers and who uses flames of fire as ministers.

8 But he says to his Son, God, your throne is forever and your kingdom's scepter is a rod of justice.

9 You loved righteousness and hated lawless behavior. That is why God, your God, has anointed you with oil instead of your companions.

10 And he says, You, Lord, laid the earth's foundations in the beginning, and the heavens are made by your hands.

11 They will pass away, but you remain. They will all wear out like old clothes.

12 You will fold them up like a coat. They will be changed like a person changes clothes, but you stay the same, and the years of your life won't come to an end.

13 When has he ever said to any of the angels, Sit at my right side until I put your enemies under your feet like a footstool?

14 Aren't all the angels ministering spirits who are sent to serve those who are going to inherit salvation?

English Standard Version ESV

1 Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets,

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

3 He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making 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.

5 For to which of the angels did God ever say, “You are my Son, today I have begotten you”? Or again, “I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son”?

6 And again, when he brings the firstborn into the world, he says, “Let all God’s angels worship him. ”

7 Of the angels he says, “He makes his angels winds, and his ministers a flame of fire. ”

8 But of the Son he says, “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom.

9 You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness beyond your companions. ”

10 And, “You, Lord, laid the foundation of the earth in the beginning, and the heavens are the work of your hands;

11 they will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment,

12 like a robe you will roll them up, like a garment they will be changed. But you are the same, and your years will have no end. ”

13 And to which of the angels has he ever said, “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet”?

14 Are they not all ministering spirits sent out to serve for the sake of those who are to inherit salvation?
