| 5 | For to which of the angels has God at any time, said You are my Son, this day have I begotten you?

| 7 | And of the angels he said thus, Who makes his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire. | Of the angels he says, “He makes his angels winds, and his ministers a flame of fire.” | In speaking of the angels he says, “He makes his angels spirits, and his servants flames of fire.” | |
| 8 | But of the Son he said, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the scepter of thy kingdom is a right scepter. | But of the Son he says, “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom. | But about the Son he says, “Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever; a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom. | |
| 9 | You have loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore, God, even your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness more than your fellows. | You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness beyond your companions.” | You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions by anointing you with the oil of joy.” | |

| 13 | For to which of the angels has he at any time said, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool under your feet? | And to which of the angels has he ever said, “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet”? | To which of the angels did God ever say, “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet|? | |
