1 God, having of old time spoken unto the fathers in the prophets by divers portions and in divers manners,
2 hath at the end of these days spoken unto us in
3 who being the effulgence of his glory, and the very image of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had made purification of sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
4 having become by so much better than the angels, as he hath inherited a more excellent name than they.
5 For unto which of the angels said he at any time,
6 And when he again bringeth in the firstborn into the world he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.
7 And of the angels he saith,
8 but of the Son
9 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity;
10 And,
11 They shall perish; but thou continuest:
12 And as a mantle shalt thou roll them up,
13 But of which of the angels hath he said at any time,
14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to do service for the sake of them that shall inherit salvation?
