Hebrews 1 – Studienbibel

1 God having spoken in many parts and in many ways formerly to the fathers in the prophets,

2 at the end of these days has spoken to us in the person of the Son, whom he has established heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;

3 who being the effulgence of his glory and the expression of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, having made by himself the purification of sins, set himself down on the right hand of the greatness on high,

4 taking a place by so much better than the angels, as he inherits a name more excellent than they.

5 For to which of the angels said he ever, Ŷou are my Son: this day have I begotten ŷou? and again, I will be to him for father, and he will be to me for son? [1. Chr 17,13; Ps 2,7]

6 and again, when he brings in the firstborn into the habitable world, he says, And let all God’s angels worship him. [Ps 97,7]

7 And as to the angels he says, Who makes his angels spirits and his ministers a flame of fire; [Ps 104,4]

8 but as to the Son, Ŷour throne, O God, is to the age of the age, and a scepter of uprightness is the scepter of ŷour kingdom. [Ps 45,7-8]

9 Ŷou have loved righteousness and have hated lawlessness; therefore God, ŷour God, has anointed ŷou with oil of gladness above ŷour companions.

10 And, Ŷou in the beginning, Lord, have founded the earth, and works of ŷour hands are the heavens. [Ps 102,26-28]

11 They will perish, but ŷou continue still; and they all will grow old as a garment,

12 and as a covering will ŷou roll them up, and they will be changed; but ŷou are the Same, and ŷour years will not fail.

13 But as to which of the angels said he ever, Sit at my right hand until I put ŷour enemies as footstool of ŷour feet? [Ps 110,1]

14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent out for service on account of those who will inherit salvation?
