Hebrews 1:8-14 Common English Bible (CEB)

8. But he says to his Son, God, your throne is forever and your kingdom’s scepter is a rod of justice.

9. You loved righteousness and hated lawless behavior. That is why God, your God, has anointed you with oil instead of your companions.

10. And he says, You, Lord, laid the earth’s foundations in the beginning, and the heavens are made by your hands.

11. They will pass away, but you remain. They will all wear out like old clothes.

12. You will fold them up like a coat. They will be changed like a person changes clothes, but you stay the same, and the years of your life won’t come to an end.

13. When has he ever said to any of the angels, Sit at my right side until I put your enemies under your feet like a footstool?

14. Aren’t all the angels ministering spirits who are sent to serve those who are going to inherit salvation?
