Hebrews 1:6-8
New Testament for Everyone
The Messiah is superior to angels
6 Again, when God brings the firstborn son into the world, he says,
Let all God’s angels worship him.
7 In relation to the angels, this is what it says:
God makes his angels spirits, and his servants flames of fire.
8 In relation to the son, however, it says,
Your throne, O God, is forever and ever;
the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom;
Hebrews 1:6-8
New International Version
6 And again, when God brings his firstborn(A) into the world,(B) 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;(E)
a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom.
