| 2in these last days has spoken to us in His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the world. | 2But in these last days He has spoken to us by His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, and through whom He made the universe. |

When He had made purification of sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, | 3The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of His nature, upholding all things by His powerful word.

| 5For to which of the angels did He ever say, "YOU ARE MY SON, TODAY I HAVE BEGOTTEN YOU"?

| 7And of the angels He says, "WHO MAKES HIS ANGELS WINDS, AND HIS MINISTERS A FLAME OF FIRE." | 7Now about the angels He says: “He makes His angels winds, His servants flames of fire.” |
| 8But of the Son He says, "YOUR THRONE, O GOD, IS FOREVER AND EVER, AND THE RIGHTEOUS SCEPTER IS THE SCEPTER OF HIS KINGDOM. | 8But about the Son He says: “Your throne, O God, endures forever and ever, and justice is the scepter of Your kingdom. |
| 9"YOU HAVE LOVED RIGHTEOUSNESS AND HATED LAWLESSNESS; THEREFORE GOD, YOUR GOD, HAS ANOINTED YOU WITH THE OIL OF GLADNESS ABOVE YOUR COMPANIONS." | 9You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, Your God, has anointed You above Your companions with the oil of joy.” |
