Hebrews 1

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAINVULGATA
1 In many places and in many ways, in past times, God spoke to the fathers through the Prophets;1 Multifariam, multisque modis olim Deus loquens patribus in prophetis :
2 lastly, in these days, he has spoken to us through the Son, whom he appointed as the heir of all things, and through whom he made the world.2 novissime, diebus istis locutus est nobis in Filio, quem constituit hæredem universorum, per quem fecit et sæcula :
3 And since the Son is the brightness of his glory, and the figure of his substance, and is carrying all things by the Word of his virtue, thereby accomplishing a purging of sins, he sits at the right hand of Majesty on high.3 qui cum sit splendor gloriæ, et figura substantiæ ejus, portansque omnia verbo virtutis suæ, purgationem peccatorum faciens, sedet ad dexteram majestatis in excelsis :
4 And having been made so much better than the Angels, he has inherited a name so much greater than theirs.4 tanto melior angelis effectus, quanto differentius præ illis nomen hæreditavit.
5 For to which of the Angels has he ever said: “You are my Son; today have I begotten you?” Or again: “I will be a Father to him, and he shall be a Son to me?”5 Cui enim dixit aliquando angelorum : Filius meus es tu, ego hodie genui te ? Et rursum : Ego ero illi in patrem, et ipse erit mihi in filium ?
6 And again, when he brings the only-begotten Son into the world, he says: “And let all the Angels of God adore him.”6 Et cum iterum introducit primogenitum in orbem terræ, dicit : Et adorent eum omnes angeli Dei.
7 And about the Angels, certainly, he says: “He makes his Angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.”7 Et ad angelos quidem dicit : Qui facit angelos suos spiritus, et ministros suos flammam ignis.
8 But about the Son: “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever. The scepter of your kingdom is a scepter of equity.8 Ad Filium autem : Thronus tuus Deus in sæculum sæculi : virga æquitatis, virga regni tui.
9 You have loved justice, and you have hated iniquity. Because of this, God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of exultation, above your companions.”9 Dilexisti justitiam, et odisti iniquitatem : propterea unxit te Deus, Deus tuus, oleo exultationis præ participibus tuis.
10 And: “In the beginning, O Lord, you founded the earth. And the heavens are the work of your hands.10 Et : Tu in principio, Domine, terram fundasti : et opera manuum tuarum sunt cæli.
11 These shall pass away, but you will remain. And all will grow old like a garment.11 Ipsi peribunt, tu autem permanebis, et omnes ut vestimentum veterascent :
12 And you will change them like a cloak, and they shall be changed. Yet you are ever the same, and your years will not diminish.”12 et velut amictum mutabis eos, et mutabuntur : tu autem idem ipse es, et anni tui non deficient.
13 But to which of the Angels has he ever said: “Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool?”13 Ad quem autem angelorum dixit aliquando : Sede a dextris meis, quoadusque ponam inimicos tuos scabellum pedum tuorum ?
14 Are they not all spirits of ministration, sent to minister for the sake of those who shall receive the inheritance of salvation?14 Nonne omnes sunt administratorii spiritus, in ministerium missi propter eos, qui hæreditatem capient salutis ?
