1. God, who at various times and in diverse ways spoke long ago to the fathers through the prophets,
2. has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, and through whom He made the world.
3. He is the brightness of His glory, the express image of Himself, and upholds all things by the word of His power. When He had by Himself purged our sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.
4. He was made so much better than the angels as He has inherited a more excellent name than they.
5. For to which of the angels did He at any time say: “You are My Son;today I have become Your Father”?Or again, “I will be a Father to Him,and He shall be a Son to Me”?
6. And again, when He brings the firstborn into the world, He says: “Let all the angels of God worship Him.”
