1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets,
1 DIOS, habiendo hablado muchas veces y en muchas maneras en otro tiempo á los padres por los profetas,
1 God, having in the past spoken to the fathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways,
2 Hath in these last days spoken to us by [his] Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
2 En estos postreros días nos ha hablado por el Hijo, al cual constituyó heredero de todo, por el cual asimismo hizo el universo:
2 has at the end of these days spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, through whom also he made the worlds.
3 Who 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 made purification of our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
3 El cual siendo el resplandor de su gloria, y la misma imagen de su sustancia, y sustentando todas las cosas con la palabra de su potencia, habiendo hecho la purgación de nuestros pecados por sí mismo, se sentó á la diestra de la Majestad en las alturas,
3 His Son is the radiance of his glory, the very image of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, who, when he had by himself purified us of our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high,
4 Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
4 Hecho tanto más excelente que los ángeles, cuanto alcanzó por herencia más excelente nombre que ellos.
4 having become as much better than the angels as the more excellent name he has inherited is better than theirs.
5 For to 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?
5 Porque ¿á cuál de los ángeles dijo [Dios] jamás: Mi hijo eres tú, hoy yo te he engendrado? y otra vez: Yo seré á él Padre, y él me será á mí hijo?
5 For to which of the angels did he say at any time, “You are my Son. Today I have become your father?” and again, “I will be to him a Father, and he will be to me a Son?”
6 And again, when he bringeth in the first-begotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.
6 Y otra vez, cuando introduce al Primogénito en la tierra, dice: Y adórenle todos los ángeles de Dios.
6 When he again brings in the firstborn into the world he says, “Let all the angels of God worship him.”
7 And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
7 Y ciertamente de los ángeles dice: El que hace á sus ángeles espíritus, y á sus ministros llama de fuego.
7 Of the angels he says, “He makes his angels winds, and his servants a flame of fire.”
8 But to the Son, [he saith] , Thy throne, O God, [is] for ever and ever: a scepter of righteousness [is] the scepter of thy kingdom.
8 Mas al hijo: Tu trono, oh Dios, por el siglo del siglo; vara de equidad la vara de tu reino;
8 But of the Son he says, “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever. The scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your Kingdom.
9 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, [even] thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
9 Has amado la justicia, y aborrecido la maldad; por lo cual te ungió Dios, el Dios tuyo, con óleo de alegría más que á tus compañeros.
9 You have loved righteousness and hated iniquity; therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows.”
10 And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the works of thy hands.
10 Y: Tú, oh Señor, en el principio fundaste la tierra; y los cielos son obras de tus manos:
10 And, “You, Lord, in the beginning, laid the foundation of the earth. The heavens are the works of your hands.
11 They shall perish; but thou remainest: and they all shall become old as doth a garment;
11 Ellos perecerán, mas tú eres permanente; y todos ellos se envejecerán como una vestidura;
11 They will perish, but you continue. They all will grow old like a garment does.
12 And as a vesture wilt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed; but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.
12 Y como un vestido los envolverás, y serán mudados; empero tú eres el mismo, y tus años no acabarán.
12 You will roll them up like a mantle, and they will be changed; but you are the same. Your years won’t fail.”
13 But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thy enemies thy footstool?
13 Pues, ¿á cuál de los ángeles dijo jamás: Siéntate á mi diestra, hasta que ponga á tus enemigos por estrado de tus pies?
13 But which of the angels has he told at any time, “Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet?”
14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall inherit salvation?
14 ¿No son todos espíritus administradores, enviados para servicio á favor de los que serán herederos de salud?
14 Aren’t they all serving spirits, sent out to do service for the sake of those who will inherit salvation?

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.

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 …
