(Colossians 1:15–23)
1
Long ago God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in many ways.
2
But in these last days, he has spoken to us through a Son, whom he appointed to be the heir of all things. It is through him that God also made the universe.
3
He is the brightness of God’s glory, the very character of his essence. He even holds everything together by the word of his power. After he had made cleansing for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.
4
He has become just as superior to the angels, as the name he has inherited is more excellent than their name.
5
For to which of the angels did God ever say, “You are my son, today I have become your father” and again, “I will be a father to him, and he will be a son to me”?
6
But again, when God brings the firstborn into the world, he says, “All God’s angels must worship him.”
7
About the angels he says, “He is the one who makes his angels spirits, and his servants flames of fire.”
8
But about the Son he says, “Your throne, God, is forever and ever. The scepter of your kingdom is the scepter of justice.
9
You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness. Therefore, God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of joy more than your companions.”
10
“In the beginning, Lord, you laid the earth’s foundation. The heavens are the work of your hands.
11
They will perish, but you will continue. They will all wear out like a piece of clothing.
12
You will roll them up like a cloak, and they will be changed like a piece of clothing. But you are the same, and your years do not end.”
13
But to which of the angels has God said at any time, “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a stool for your feet”?
14
Are not all angels spirits who serve, and who are sent to care for those who will inherit salvation?
(Colossians 1:15–23)
1
God, having in the past spoken to the fathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways,
2
has at the end of these days spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, through whom also he made the worlds.
3
His Son is the radiance of his glory, the very image of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, who, when he had by himself purified us of our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high,
4
having become as much better than the angels as the more excellent name he has inherited is better than theirs.
5
For to which of the angels did he say at any time,You are my Son. Today I have become your father?”(a) and again,I will be to him a Father, and he will be to me a Son?”(b)
6
When he again brings in the firstborn into the world he says, “Let all the angels of God worship him.”(c)
7
Of the angels he says,He makes his angels winds, and his servants a flame of fire.”(d)
8
But of the Son he says,Your throne, O God, is forever and ever. The scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your Kingdom.
9
You have loved righteousness and hated iniquity; therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows.”(e)
10
And,You, Lord, in the beginning, laid the foundation of the earth. The heavens are the works of your hands.
11
They will perish, but you continue. They all will grow old like a garment does.
12
You will roll them up like a mantle, and they will be changed; but you are the same. Your years won’t fail.”(f)
13
But which of the angels has he told at any time,Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet?”(g)
14
Aren’t they all serving spirits, sent out to do service for the sake of those who will inherit salvation?
