E-25 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ is with your spirit.

Hebrews

Hebrews 1

1 God, who spoke many times and in many ways to the fathers in the prophets,

2 In these last days he spoke to us in the Son, whom he made heir of all things, through whom also he created the worlds.

3 The Son, being the radiance of glory, and the imprint of his essence, and upholding all things by the word of his power, having made atonement for sins, sat down on the right hand of Majesty in heaven,

4 having become so much more excellent than the angels, as he inherited the most excellent before them the Name.

5 For to whom, when did God say of the angels, 'Thou art my Son, I have begotten thee this day?' and again, I will be His Father, and He will be My Son?

6 Again, when He brings the Firstborn into the world, He says, "And let all the angels of God worship Him."

7 And if he says of angels, He who maketh his angels winds, and his servants a flame of fire,

8 then of the Son, Thy throne, O God, for ever and ever, and the scepter of righteousness is the scepter of his kingdom.

9 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hast hated iniquity; wherefore have I anointed thee, O God, thy God, with the oil of joy chiefly before thy fellow-parters.

10 And: Thou didst in the beginning, O Lord, founded the earth, and the works of thy hands are the heavens.

11 They shall perish, but Thou remainest, and all shall be worn out like garments;

12 And like a garment thou shalt roll them up; as a garment, and shall be changed; but Thou art one and the same, and Thy years shall not end.

13 To which of the angels did God ever say, 'Sit on my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool?'

14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister to those who inherit salvation?

Hebrews 2

1 Therefore we must be especially attentive to what we hear, lest we be carried away by the current.

2 For if the word spoken by the angels was firm, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompense,

3 how shall we escape, having neglected so great a salvation, which, having first been preached by the Lord, was confirmed in us by those who heard of him,
