Hebrews 13
- Let brotherly love continue.
- Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have
entertained angels unawares.
- Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; and them which
suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the
body.
- Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed
undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.
- Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with
such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake
thee.
- So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear
what man shall do unto me.
- Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you
the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation.
- Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
- Be not carried about with divers 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 therein.
- We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat which serve the
tabernacle.
- For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the
sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned without the camp.
- Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own
blood, suffered without the gate.
- Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his
reproach.
- For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come.
- 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.
- But to do good and to communicate forget
not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.
- 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.
- Pray for us: for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things
willing to live honestly.
- But I beseech you the rather to do this, that I may be restored to
you the sooner.
- 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,
- 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.
- And I beseech you, brethren, suffer the word of exhortation: for I
have written a letter unto you in few words.
- Know ye that our brother Timothy is set at
liberty; with whom, if he come shortly, I will see you.
- Salute all them that have the rule over you, and all the saints.
They of Italy
salute you.
- Grace be with you all. Amen.
