The F.O.G
[6] And when God brings His firstborn Son into the world, He commands, "Let all God's angels worship Him."
The F.O.G Paraphrase
and when again He may bring in the first-born to the world, He saith, ‘And let them bow before him—all messengers of God;’
Young's Literal Translation

Footnotes:

We see the author link angelic messengers to gods (elohim) here because in Psalm 97:7, the Psalmist doesn’t say angels but gods: “Worship Him, all you gods.” This highlights that, to a Hebrew, elohim or god meant a heavenly being. However, the One and only Elohim (The Supreme Heavenly Being or the Godhead) is different and Most High Above all other elohim. His name, as we know it today, is Yahweh Yeshua or the LORD Jesus. Whenever you see all caps LORD in your Bible, that is the personally revealed name יהוה (Yahweh). See Exodus 3:13-14.
