god who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets
hath in these last days spoken unto us by his son whom he hath appointed heir of all things by whom also he made the worlds
who being the brightness of his glory and the express image of his person and upholding all things by the word of his power when he had by himself purged our sins sat down on the right hand of the majesty on high
being made so much better than the angels as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they
for unto which of the angels said he at any time thou art my son this day have i begotten thee and again i will be to him a father and he shall be to me a son
and again when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world he saith and let all the angels of god worship him
and of the angels he saith who maketh his angels spirits and his ministers a flame of fire
but unto the son he saith thy throne o god is for ever and ever a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom
thou hast loved righteousness and hated iniquity therefore god even thy god hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows
and thou lord in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth and the heavens are the works of thine hands
they shall perish but thou remainest and they all shall wax old as doth a garment
and as a vesture shalt thou fold them up and they shall be changed but thou art the same and thy years shall not fail
but to which of the angels said he at any time sit on my right hand until i make thine enemies thy footstool
are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation
