The Letter to the Hebrews, Chapter 13
{13:1} Let brotherly love continue. {13:2} Don't forget to show
hospitality to strangers, for in doing so, some have entertained
angels without knowing it. {13:3} Remember those who are in bonds, as
bound with them; and those who are ill-treated, since you are also in
the body. {13:4} Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the
bed be undefiled: but God will judge the sexually immoral and
adulterers. {13:5} Be free from the love of money, content with such
things as you have, for he has said, "I will in no way leave you,
neither will I in any way forsake you." {13:6} So that with good
courage we say,
"The Lord is my helper. I will not fear.
What will man do to me?"
{13:7} Remember your leaders, men who spoke to you the word of God,
and considering the results of their conduct, imitate their faith.
{13:8} Yeshua the Messiah is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
{13:9} Don't be carried away by various and strange teachings, for it
is good that the heart be established by grace, not by food, through
which those who were so occupied were not benefited.
{13:10} We have an altar from which those who serve the holy tent
have no right to eat. {13:11} For the bodies of those animals, whose
blood is brought into the holy place by the [1>]Kohen Gadol[<1] as an
offering for sin, are burned outside of the camp. {13:12} Therefore
Yeshua also, that he might sanctify the people through his own blood,
suffered outside of the gate. {13:13} Let us therefore go forth to him
outside of the camp, bearing his reproach. {13:14} For we don't have
here an enduring city, but we seek that which is to come. {13:15}
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. {13:16} But don't forget to be doing good and sharing, for with
such sacrifices God is well pleased. {13:17} Obey those who have the
rule over you, and submit to them, for they watch on behalf of your
souls, as those who will give account, that they may do this with joy,
and not with groaning, for that would be unprofitable for you. {13:18}
Pray for us, for we are persuaded that we have a good conscience,
desiring to live honorably in all things. {13:19} I strongly urge you
to do this, that I may be restored to you sooner. {13:20} Now may the
God of shalom, who brought again from the dead the great shepherd of
the sheep with the blood of an eternal covenant, our Lord Yeshua,
{13:21} make you complete in every good work to do his will, working
in you that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Yeshua the
Messiah, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amein.
{13:22} But I exhort you, brothers, endure the word of exhortation,
for I have written to you in few words. {13:23} Know that our brother
Timothy has been freed, with whom, if he comes shortly, I will see
you. {13:24} Greet all of your leaders and all the holy ones. The
Italians greet you. {13:25} Grace be with you all. Amein.
