Hebrews 1:5-12
New International Version
The Son Superior to Angels
5 For to which of the angels did God ever say,
Or again,
6 And again, when God brings his firstborn(C) into the world,(D) he says,
7 In speaking of the angels he says,
8 But about the Son he says,
“Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever;(G)
a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom.
9 You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness;
therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions(H)
by anointing you with the oil(I) of joy.”[e](J)
10 He also says,
“In the beginning, Lord, you laid the foundations of the earth,
and the heavens are the work of your hands.(K)
11 They will perish, but you remain;
they will all wear out like a garment.(L)
12 You will roll them up like a robe;
like a garment they will be changed.
But you remain the same,(M)
and your years will never end.”[f](N)
