Hebrews 13
- 1Let brotherly love continue.
- 2Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers. For by it some have entertained angels without knowing it.
- 3Remember those who are in bonds, as bound with them, and those who suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body.
- 4Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled. But sexually immoral people and adulterers God will judge.
- 5Let your conduct be free from the love of money. Be content with such things as you have. For he has said, I will never leave you, or abandon you.
- 6So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do to me.
- 7Remember those who have the rule over you, who have spoken to you the word of God. Imitate their faith, considering the end of their conduct.
- 8Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever.
- 9Do not be carried about with various and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace, not with foods, which have not profited those who have been occupied in it.
- 10We have an altar from which those who serve the tabernacle have no right to eat.
- 11For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned outside the camp.
- 12Therefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered outside the gate.
- 13Let us go out therefore to him outside the camp, bearing the disgrace he bore.
- 14For here we have no continuing city, but we seek one to come.
- 15By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.
- 16But do not forget to do good and to share. For with such sacrifices God is well pleased.
- 17Obey those who have the rule over you, and submit yourselves. For they watch for your souls, as those who must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief. For that is unprofitable for you.
- 18Pray for us, for we trust that we have a good conscience and want to behave honorably in everything.
- 19But I urge you the more to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.
- 20Now the God of peace, who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,
- 21Equip you in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ. To him be glory forever and ever. Amen.
- 22And I urge you, brothers and sisters, bear with the word of encouragement. For I have written a letter to you in few words.
- 23Know that our brother Timothy is set at liberty. If he comes soon, I will see you with him.
- 24Greet all those who have the rule over you, and all the saints. They of Italy greet you.
- 25Grace be with you all. Amen.
