Hebrews 1:6

Read in context

Hebrews 1:4–8 · Berean Standard Bible

4 So He became as far superior to the angels as the name He has inherited is excellent beyond theirs.

5 For to which of the angels did God ever say: “You are My Son; today I have become Your Father”? Or again: “I will be His Father, and He will be My Son”?

6 And again, when God brings His firstborn into the world, He says: “Let all God’s angels worship Him.”

7 Now about the angels He says: “He makes His angels winds, His servants flames of fire.”

8 But about the Son He says: “Your throne, O God, endures forever and ever, and justice is the scepter of Your kingdom.
