[a]And when He again brings the firstborn [highest-ranking Son] into the world, He says,

And all the angels of God are to worship Him.”(A)

And concerning the angels He says,

Who makes His angels winds,
And His ministering servants flames of fire [to do His bidding].”(B)

Your throne, [b]O God, is forever and ever,
And the [c]scepter of [absolute] righteousness is the scepter of [d]His kingdom.
