God speaks about the angels like this:

‘God makes his angels like winds.
They serve him like fires that burn brightly.’

But this is what God says to his Son:

‘You are God and you will rule as King for ever!
You will rule your kingdom in a completely good way.
You love everything that is right.
And you hate everything that is wrong.
Because of that, you will be completely happy.
I am your God and I have blessed you.
I have chosen you to be greater than others who are with you.’

In speaking of the angels he says,

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

But about the Son he says,

“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)
