God’s Final Word in His Son
1IN MANY separate revelations [each of which set forth a portion of the Truth] and in different ways God spoke of old to [our] forefathers in {and} by the prophets,G23162[But] in the last of these days He has spoken to us in [the person of a] Son, Whom He appointed Heir {and} lawful Owner of all things, also by {and} through Whom He created the worlds {and} the reaches of space {and} the ages of time [He made, produced, built, operated, and arranged them in order].G2980G1909G5130G2078G2250G2980G2254G1722G5207G3739G5087G2818G3956G1223G3739G2532G4160G165
3He is the sole expression of the glory of God [the Light-being, the out-raying or radiance of the divine], and He is the perfect imprint {and} very image of [God's] nature, upholding {and} maintaining {and} guiding {and} propelling the universe by His mighty word of power. When He had {by offering Himself} accomplished {our} cleansing of sins {and} riddance of guilt, He sat down at the right hand of the divine Majesty on high,G3739G5607G541G1391G2532G5481G846G5287G5037G5342G3956G4487G846G1411G4160G2512G1223G1438G4160G2512G2257G266G2523G1722G1188G3172G1722G5308
4[Taking a place and rank by which] He Himself became as much superior to angels as the glorious Name (title) which He has inherited is different from {and} more excellent than theirs.G1096G5118G2909G32G3745G2816G1313G3686G3844G846
5For to which of the angels did [God] ever say, You are My Son, today I have begotten You [established You in an official Sonship relation, with kingly dignity]? And again, I will be to Him a Father, and He will be to Me a Son? [II Sam. 7:14; Ps. 2:7.]G1063G5101G32G2036G4218G4771G1488G3450G5207G4594G1080G1473G1080G4571G2532G3825G1473G2071G1519G846G3962G2532G846G2071G1519G3427G5207
6Moreover, when He brings the firstborn Son again into the habitable world, He says, Let all the angels of God worship Him.G1161G3825G3752G1521G4416G1519G3625G3004G2532G4352G3956G32G2316G4352G846
7Referring to the angels He says, [God] Who makes His angels winds and His ministering servants flames of fire;G2532G4314G3303G32G3004G4160G846G32G4151G2532G846G3011G5395G4442
8But as to the Son, He says to Him, Your throne, O God, is forever and ever (to the ages of the ages), and the scepter of Your kingdom is a scepter of absolute righteousness (of justice and straightforwardness).G1161G4314G5207G4675G2362G2316G1519G165G165G4464G2118G4464G4675G932
9You have loved righteousness [You have delighted in integrity, virtue, and uprightness in purpose, thought, and action] and You have hated lawlessness (injustice and iniquity). Therefore God, [even] Your God (Godhead), has anointed You with the oil of exultant joy {and} gladness above {and} beyond Your companions.G25G1343G2532G3404G458G1223G5124G2316G4675G2316G5548G4571G1637G20G3844G4675G3353
10And [further], You, Lord, did lay the foundation of the earth in the beginning, and the heavens are the works of Your hands.G2532G4771G2962G2596G746G2311G1093G2532G3772G1526G2041G4675G5495
11They will perish, but You remain {and} continue permanently; they will all grow old {and} wear out like a garment.G846G622G1161G4771G1265G2532G3956G3822G5613G2440
12Like a mantle [thrown about one's self] You will roll them up, and they will be changed {and} replaced by others. But You remain the same, and Your years will never end {nor} come to failure.G2532G5616G4018G1667G846G1667G2532G236G1161G4771G1488G846G2532G4675G2094G1587G3756G1587
New Testament
13Besides, to which of the angels has He ever said, Sit at My right hand [associated with Me in My royal dignity] till I make your enemies a stool for your feet?G1161G4314G5101G32G2046G4218G2521G1537G3450G1188G302G2193G5087G4675G2190G4675G5286G4228
14Are not the angels all ministering spirits (servants) sent out in the service [of God for the assistance] of those who are to inherit salvation?G1526G3780G3956G3010G4151G649G1519G1248G1223G3195G2816G4991
