A   God in tyme past dyuersly ∧ many wayes, spake vnto þe; fathers by prophetes, but in these last dayes he hath spoken vnto vs by his sonne, ^note whom he hath made heyre of all thinges, by whom also he made the worlde. ^noteWhich (sonne) beynge the brightnes of his glory, ∧ the very ymage of his substaunce, bearinge vp all thinges with the worde of his power, ^note hath in his owne personne pourged oure synnes, and is set on the righte hande of the maiestie on hye: beynge eu&ebar; as moch more excell&ebar;t th&ebar; þe; angels, as he hath optayned a more excell&ebar;t ^note name then they.

B   For vnto which of the angels sayde he at eny tyme: ^note Thou art my sonne, this daye haue I begotten the? And agayne: ^note I will be his father, ∧ he shalbe my sonne: And agayne, wh&abar; he bryngeth in the fyrst begott&ebar; sonne in to the worlde, he sayeth: ^note And all the angels of God shal worshippe him. And of the angels he sayeth: ^note He maketh his angels spretes, ∧ his mynisters fl&abar;mes of fyre. But vnto þe; sonne he sayeth: ^note God, þi; seate endureth for euer ∧ euer: the cepter of þi; kyngdome is a right cepter. Thou hast loued righteousnes, ∧ hated iniquyte: wherfore God (which is thy God) hath anoynted the with the oyle of gladnesse aboue þi; felowes. ^noteAnd thou LORDE in þe; begynnynge hast layed the foundacion of the earth, and þe; heau&ebar;s are the workes of thy handes, ^note they shal perishe, but thou shalt endure: they all shal waxe olde as doth a garm&ebar;t, and as a vesture shalt thou chaunge them, and they shalbe chaunged. But thou art þe; same, and thy yeares shal not fayle. Vnto which of the angels sayde he at eny tyme: ^note Syt thou on my righte h&abar;de, tyll I make thyne enemies thy fote stole? Are they not all mynistrynge spretes, sent to mynister for their sakes, which shalbe heyres of saluacion?
