Heb 13
1
Let love of the brethren continue.
2
Forget not to show love to strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
3
Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; them that are illtreated, as
being yourselves also in the body.
4
[Let] marriage [be] had in honor among all, and [let] the bed [be] undefiled: for
fornicators and adulterers God will judge.
5
Be you free from the love of money; content with such things as you have: for himself
has said, I will in no wise fail you, neither will I in any wise forsake you.
6
So that with good courage we say, The Lord is my helper; I will not fear: What shall
man do to me?
7
Remember them that had the rule over you, men that spoke to you the word of God; and
considering the issue of their life, imitate their faith.
8
Jesus Christ [is] the same yesterday and to-day, [yea] and for ever.
9
Be not carried away by divers and strange teachings: for it is good that the heart
be established by grace; not by meats, wherein they that occupied themselves were
not profited.
10
We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat that serve the tabernacle.
11
For the bodies of those beasts whose blood is brought into the holy place by the high
priest [as an offering] for sin, are burned without the camp.
12
Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people through his own blood, suffered
without the gate.
13
Let us therefore go forth to him without the camp, bearing his reproach.
14
For we have not here an abiding city, but we seek after [the city] which is to come.
15
Through him then let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is,
the fruit of lips which make confession to his name.
16
But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well
pleased.
17
Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit [to them]: for they watch in behalf
of your souls, as they that shall give account; that they may do this with joy, and
not with grief: for this [were] unprofitable for you.
18
Pray for us: for we are persuaded that we have a good conscience, desiring to live
honorably in all things.
19
And I exhort [you] the more exceedingly to do this, that I may be restored to you
the sooner.
20
Now the God of peace, who brought again from the dead the great shepherd of the sheep
with the blood of an eternal covenant, [even] our Lord Jesus,
21
make you perfect in every good thing to do his will, working in us that which is well-pleasing
in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom [be] the glory for ever and ever. Amen.
22
But I exhort you, brethren, bear with the word of exhortation, for I have written
to you in few words.
23
Know you that our brother Timothy has been set at liberty; with whom, if he come shortly,
I will see you.
24
Salute all them that have the rule over you, and all the saints. They of Italy salute
you.
25
Grace be with you all. Amen.
