RWebster - Hebrews - 13

13:1  Let brotherly love continue.

13:2  Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for by this some have entertained angels unawares.

13:3  Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; and them who suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body.

13:4  Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but fornicators and adulterers God will judge.

13:5  Let your manner of life be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

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

13:7  Remember them who have the rule over you, who have spoken to you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their manner of life.

13:8  Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.

13:9  Be not carried about with various and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied in them.

13:10  We have an altar, of which they have no right to eat who serve the tabernacle.

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

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

13:13  Let us go forth therefore to him outside the camp, bearing his reproach.

13:14  For here we have no continuing city, but we seek one to come.

13:15  By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.

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

13:17  Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.

13:18  Pray for us: for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to live honestly.

13:19  But I beseech you the rather to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.

13:20  Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,

13:21  Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

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

13:23  Know ye that our brother Timothy is set at liberty; with whom, if he come shortly, I will see you.

13:24  Greet all them that have the rule over you, and all the saints. They of Italy greet you.

13:25  Grace be with you all. Amen. Written to the Hebrews from Italy, by Timothy.
