R. F. Weymouth
001:001 God, who in ancient days spoke to our forefathers in many distinct messages and by various methods through the Prophets,
001:002 has at the end of these days spoken to us through a Son, who is the pre-destined Lord of the universe, and through whom He made the Ages.
001:003 He brightly reflects God's glory and is the exact representation of His being, and upholds the universe by His all-powerful word. After securing man's purification from sin He took His seat at the right hand of the Majesty on high,
001:004 having become as far superior to the angels as the Name He possesses by inheritance is more excellent than theirs.
001:005 For to which of the angels did God ever say, My Son art Thou: I have this day become Thy Father; and again, I will be a Father to Him, and He shall be My Son ?
001:006 But speaking of the time when He once more brings His Firstborn into the world, He says, And let all God's angels worship Him.
001:007 Moreover of the angels He says, He changes His angels into winds, and His ministering servants into a flame of fire.
001:008 But of His Son, He says, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and for ever, and the sceptre of Thy Kingdom is a sceptre of absolute justice.
