Hebrews 1:7-9
New Testament for Everyone

7 In relation to the angels, this is what it says:

God makes his angels spirits, and his servants flames of fire.

8 In relation to the son, however, it says,

Your throne, O God, is forever and ever;
the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom;
9 you loved justice and hated lawlessness,
therefore God, your God, anointed you with the oil of gladness,
as superior to your comrades.
