KJ3 Literal Translation
Hebrews 1
1 Christ in these last times coming to us from the Father, 4 is preferred above the angels.
1In many ways and in various ways of old, God having spoken to the fathers in the prophets;
2in these last days He spoke to us in the Son, whom He appointed heir of all things; through whom He indeed made the ages;
3who being the shining splendor of His glory, and the express image of His essence, and bearing up all things by the Word of His power, having made purification of our sins through Himself, He sat down on the right of the Majesty on high, Psa. 110:1
4having become so much better than the angels, as much as He has inherited a name more excellent beyond them.
5For to which of the angels did He ever say, “You are My Son; today I have begotten You”? And again, “I will be a Father to Him, and He shall be a Son to Me.” Psalm 2:7
6And again, when He brought the Firstbegotten into the world, He said, “And let all the angels of God worship Him.”
7And as to the angels, He said, “Who makes His angels spirits, and His servants a flame of fire;”? LXX-Psa. 103:4; MTPsa. 104:4
8but as to the Son, “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, A scepter of uprightness is the scepter of Your kingdom;
9You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; because of this God, Your God, has anointed You with the oil of gladness above Your fellows.” Psa. 45:6, 7
10And, “You, Lord, at the beginning laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are works of Your hands.
11They will vanish away, but You will continue; and all things will become old, like a garment,
12and You shall fold them up like a covering, and they shall be changed. But You are the same, and Your years shall not fail.” LXX-Psa. 101:26-28; MT-Psa. 102:25-27
13But to which of the angels did He ever say, “Sit at My right hand until I place Your hostile ones as a footstool of Your feet”? LXX-Psa. 109:1; MT-Psa. 110:1
14Are they not all ministering spirits for service, being sent out because of the ones being about to inherit salvation?
