This is still a very early look into the unfinished text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
1:4 The son is greater than the angels
4 By having become so much better than God’s messengers, he inherited a greater reputation than them, 5 because which of the messengers was told even once by God:[ref]
‘You are my son;
I gave birth to you today.’
And again:
‘I will be a father to him,
And he will be a son to me.’
6 Then when God again brings his firstborn son into the world he said:[ref]
‘Let all of God’s messengers bow down to him.’
7 On one hand he said to his messengers:[ref]
‘The one making his messengers winds,
and making his ministers a fiery flame.’
8 And on the other hand to his son he said:[ref]
‘God, your throne will last to the end of the ages;
The ruler of his kingdom is a ruler of justice.
9 You loved righteousness and hated lawlessness,
because of this, God, your God, honoured you
with gladness beyond what your companions received.’
10 He also said to his son:[ref]
‘Yahweh, at the beginning you established the earth,
and you made the heavens with your hands.
11 They will perish but you will continue;
They will wear out like clothes do.
12 You will roll them up like a discarded dressing gown;
they’ll be changed like we change our clothes.
But you remain the same,
and you won’t get old and fragile.’
13 To which of his messengers did God say even once:[ref]
‘Sit in the seat of honour on my right,
until I can defeat your enemies
and use them as a stool for my feet’?
14 See, those messengers are just ministering spirits sent out to serve those people who will inherit salvation.
