He talks about the angels:

He’s the one who uses the spirits for his messengers
        and who uses flames of fire as ministers.[a]

But he says to his Son,

God, your throne is forever
        and your kingdom’s scepter is a rod of justice.
You loved righteousness and hated lawless behavior.
        That is why God, your God,
        has anointed you more than your companions with the oil of joy.[b]

“He makes his angels spirits,
    and his servants flames of fire.”[a](A)

“Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever;(B)
    a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom.
You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness;
    therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions(C)
    by anointing you with the oil(D) of joy.”[b](E)
