Hebrews 1:7-9
GOD’S WORD Translation

7 God said about the angels,

“He makes his messengers winds.
He makes his servants flames of fire.”

8 But God said about his Son,

“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever.
The scepter in your kingdom is a scepter for justice.
9 You have loved what is right and hated what is wrong.
That is why God, your God,
anointed you, rather than your companions, with the oil of joy.”
