Hebrews 1:6-8
Contemporary English Version

6 (A) When God brings his first-born Son[a] into the world, he commands all of his angels to worship him.

7 (B) And when God speaks about the angels, he says,

“I change my angels into wind
and my servants
    into flaming fire.”

8 (C) But God says about his Son,

“You are God,
and you will rule
    as King forever!
Your[b] royal power
    brings about justice.
