1:5 For to which of the angels did God 1 ever say, “You are my son! Today I have fathered you”? 2 And in another place 3 he says, 4 “I will be his father and he will be my son.” 5
1 tn Grk “he”; the referent (God) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
2 tn Grk “I have begotten you.”
3 tn Grk “And again,” quoting another OT passage.
4 tn The words “he says” are not in the Greek text but are supplied to make a complete English sentence. In the Greek text this is a continuation of the previous sentence, but English does not normally employ such long and complex sentences.
5 tn Grk “I will be a father to him and he will be a son to me.”
