1 Dios habló hace mucho tiempo, muchas veces y de muchas maneras a los antepasados por medio de los profetas. 2 En estos últimos días nos habló por medio del Hijo, a Quien declaró Heredero de todas las cosas, por medio de Quien también hizo los universos, 3 Quien es [el] resplandor de la Gloria y reproducción exacta de su esencia, Quien sustenta todas las cosas con la Palabra de su poder. Después de purificarnos de los pecados por medio de Él mismo, se sentó a [la] derecha de la Majestad en [las] alturas. 4 Como es superior a los ángeles, heredó un Nombre más excelente que ellos. 5 Porque ¿a cuál de los ángeles dijo alguna vez: Mi hijo eres Tú. Yo te engendré hoy? Y otra vez: ¿Yo le seré Padre, Y Él me será Hijo? 6 Otra vez, cuando introduce al Primogénito en el mundo, dice: Adórenlo todos los ángeles de Dios. 7 Y de los ángeles dice: Quien convierte a sus ángeles en espíritus, Y a sus ministros en llama de fuego. 8 Pero del Hijo [dijo]: Tu trono, oh Dios, es por el siglo del siglo, Y el cetro de tu reino es cetro de justicia. 9 Amaste [la] justicia y aborreciste [la ]iniquidad. Por tanto Dios te ungió, el Dios tuyo, Con aceite de regocijo por encima de tus compañeros. 10 Y: Tú, Señor, desde [el] principio fundaste la tierra, Y los cielos son obras de tus manos, 11 Y se acabarán, pero Tú permaneces. Y todos envejecerán como ropa. 12 Como un vestido los enrollarás, Y como ropa serán mudados. Pero Tú eres el mismo, Y tus años no acabarán. 13 Y, ¿A cuál de los ángeles [Dios] dijo alguna vez: Siéntate a mi derecha, Hasta que ponga a tus enemigos como tarima para tus pies? 14 ¿No son todos [los ángeles] espíritus servidores, enviados para ayudar a los herederos de [la] salvación?

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Truly, "where sin abounded, grace did much more abound." ( Rom. v. 20.) This at least the blessed Paul intimates here also, in the very beginning of his Epistle to the Hebrews.

… knowledge, "who, being the brightness of His majesty, is by so much greater than the angels, as He hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they." For it is thus written, "Who maketh His angels spirits, and His ministers a flame of fire." But concerning His Son the Lord spoke thus: "Thou art my Son, to-day have I …
Since, "in many places, and in diverse manners," as the Epistle to the Hebrews saith, "God spoke in former times to the fathers through the Prophets;" yet He spoke of Him whom He sent afterwards, that the words of the Prophets might be fulfilled: for "all the promises of God in Him are yea." Psalm CIX

At least Paul puts it as a peculiar privilege of the Only-Begotten, saying, "To which of the angels said He at any time, Sit thou on my right hand? And of the angels He saith, who maketh His angels spirits; but unto the Son, Thy throne, O God.'" How then saith He, "To sit on my right hand and on …

Hear also a second testimony to Christ's Deity, that which has just now been read, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever.
