Hebrews 13

1Let the charity of the brotherhood abide in you.● 2And hospitality do not forget: for by this some, being not aware of it, have entertained angels.● 3Remember them that are in bands, as if you were bound with them: and them that labour, as being yourselves also in the body.● 4Marriage honourable in all, and the bed undefiled. For fornicators and adulterers God will judge.● 5Let your manners be without covetousness, contented with such things as you have. For he hath said: I will not leave thee: neither will I forsake thee.● 6So that we may confidently say: The Lord is my helper: I will not fear what man shall do to me.● 7Remember your prelates who have spoken the word of God to you: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation,● 8Jesus Christ, yesterday, and today: and the same for ever.● 9Be not led away with various and strange doctrines. For it is best that the heart be established with grace, not with meats: which have not profited those that walk in them.● 10We have an altar whereof they have no power to eat who serve the tabernacle.● 11For the bodies of those beasts whose blood is brought into the holies by the high priest for sin are burned without the camp.● 12Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people by his own blood, suffered without the gate.● 13Let us go forth therefore to him without the camp, bearing his reproach. Let us go forth therefore to him without the camp, bearing his● 14For, we have not here a lasting city: but we seek one that is to come.● 15By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise always to God, that is to say, the fruit of lips confessing to his name.● 16And do not forget to do good and to impart: for by such sacrifices God's favour is obtained.● 17Obey your prelates and be subject to them. For they watch as being to render an account of your souls: that they may do this with joy and not with grief. For this is not expedient for you.● 18Pray for us. For we trust we have a good conscience, being willing to behave ourselves well in all things.● 19And I beseech you the more to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.● 20And may the God of peace, who brought again from the dead the great pastor of the sheep, our Lord Jesus Christ, in the blood of the everlasting testament,● 21Fit you in all goodness, that you may do his will; doing in you that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom is glory for ever and ever. Amen.● 22And I beseech you, brethren, that you suffer this word of consolation. For I have written to you in a few words.● 23Know ye that our brother Timothy is set at liberty: with whom (if he come shortly) I will see you.● 24Salute all your prelates and all the saints. The brethren from Italy salute you.● 25Grace be with you all. Amen.●
