¹God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,

¹Potem ko je Bog nekdaj mnogokrat in na razne načine govoril očetom po prorokih,

²Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;

²nam je v teh zadnjih dneh govoril po Sinu, ki ga je postavil za dediča vseh stvari, ki je po njem naredil tudi svetove,

³Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:

³ki je odsvit slave in podoba bitja njegovega in vzdržuje vse z besedo moči svoje; ki je, potem ko je po sebi izvršil očiščenje grehov naših, sedel na desnico veličastva v višavah

⁴Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.

⁴in je tolikanj višji postal od angelov, kolikor odličnejše ime je podedoval mimo njih.

⁵For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?

⁵Kajti kateremu izmed angelov je kdaj rekel: „Sin moj si ti, jaz sem te danes rodil“, in zopet: „Jaz mu bodem za očeta in on mi bode za sina“?

⁶And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.

⁶In ko bo prvorojenca zopet vpeljal v svet, pravi: „In molijo naj ga vsi angeli Božji“.

⁷And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.

⁷In o angelih sicer pravi: „On dela angele svoje za vetrove in služabnike svoje za ognja plamen“,

⁸But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.

⁸o Sinu pa: „Prestol tvoj, o Bog, na veka vek. Pravičnosti žezlo je kraljestva tvojega žezlo.

⁹Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

⁹Ljubil si pravico in sovražil krivico. Zato te je pomazilil Bog, Bog tvoj, z oljem veselja bolj nego sodeležnike tvoje“.

¹⁰And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands:

¹⁰In: „Ti si v začetku, Gospod, ustanovil zemljo, in rok tvojih dela so nebesa;

¹¹They shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment;

¹¹njih bode konec, ti pa ostaneš; in vsa se bodo postarala kakor obleka,

¹²And as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.

¹²in kakor plašč jih boš zvil, in izpremenila se bodo; ti pa si isti, in let tvojih ne bode konec“.

¹³But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool?

¹³Kateremu izmed angelov pa je kdaj rekel: „Sedi na desnico mojo, dokler ne položim sovražnikov tvojih za podnožje nogam tvojim“?Niso li vsi služabni duhovi, v službo pošiljani zaradi njih, ki imajo podedovati zveličanje?

¹⁴Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?

¹⁴Niso li vsi služabni duhovi, v službo pošiljani zaradi njih, ki imajo podedovati zveličanje?
