RKJNT - Hebrews - 13

13:1  Let brotherly love continue.

13:2  Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers: for by so doing some have entertained angels without knowing it.

13:3  Remember those who are in prison, as if in prison with them; and those who suffer adversity, since you yourselves are also in the body.

13:4  Marriage is to be held in honour by all, and the marriage bed is to be undefiled: for the sexually immoral and adulterers God will judge.

13:5  Let your lives be free from the love of money; and be content with such things as you have: for he has said, I will never leave you, nor forsake you.

13:6  So we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man can do to me.

13:7  Remember those who lead you, who have spoken to you the word of God: consider the outcome of their way of life, and imitate their faith.

13:8  Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, and today, and forever.

13:9  Do not be carried away by varied and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing for the heart to be established by grace, not by foods, which have not benefitted those who have been occupied with them.

13:10  We have an altar, from which those who serve at the tabernacle have no right to eat.

13:11  For the bodies of those animals, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest as an offering for sin, are burned outside the camp.

13:12  Therefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people by his own blood, suffered outside the gate.

13:13  Therefore, let us go forth to him outside the camp, bearing his reproach.

13:14  For here we do not have an enduring city, but we seek the one which is to come.

13:15  Therefore, through him let us continually offer a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that confess his name.

13:16  Do not forget to do good and to share: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

13:17  Obey those who lead you, and submit to them: for they watch over your souls as those who must give account. Let it be a joyful task for them, not a sad one: for that would be unprofitable for you.

13:18  Pray for us: for we are sure we have a good conscience, in all things desiring to live honestly.

13:19  I urge you more earnestly to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.

13:20  Now may the God of peace, who brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the eternal covenant,

13:21  Equip you with every good thing to do his will, working in you that which is well-pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

13:22  And I urge you, brethren, bear with this word of exhortation: for I have written to you a letter of few words.

13:23  I want you to know that our brother Timothy has been set at liberty; with whom, if he arrives shortly, I will come to see you.

13:24  Greet all those who lead you, and all the saints. Those in Italy greet you.

13:25  Grace be with you all. Amen.
