Hebrews 13:1-19

Lexham English Bible LEB

1 Brotherly love must continue.

2 Do not neglect hospitality, because through this some have received angels as guests without knowing [it].

3 Remember the prisoners, as [though you were] fellow-prisoners; [remember] the mistreated, as [though] [you] yourselves also are being [mistreated] in the body.

4 Marriage [must be] held in honor by all, and the marriage bed [be] undefiled, because God will judge sexually immoral people and adulterers.

5 Your lifestyle [must be] free from the love of money, being content with what you have. For he himself has said, "I will never desert you, and I will never abandon you."

6 So then, we can say with confidence, "The Lord [is] my helper, I will not be afraid.<note: Some manuscripts have "and I will not be afraid"> What will man do to me?"<note: A quotation from Ps 118:6>

7 Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you; {considering the outcome of their way of life}, imitate their faith.

8 Jesus Christ [is] the same yesterday and today and {forever}.

9 Do not be carried away by various and strange teachings, for [it is] good [for] the heart to be strengthened by grace, not by foods by which those who participate have not benefited.

10 We have an altar from which those who serve in the tabernacle do not have the right to eat.

11 For the bodies of those animals whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sins are burned up outside the camp.

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

13 So we must go out to him outside the camp, bearing his reproach.

14 For here we do not have a permanent city, but we seek the [city] that is to come.

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

16 And do not neglect doing good and generosity, for God is pleased with such sacrifices.

17 Obey your leaders and submit [to them], for they keep watch over your souls as those who will give an account, so that they can do this with joy and not [with] groaning, for this [would be] unprofitable for you.

18 Pray for us, for we are convinced that we have a good conscience, [and] want to conduct ourselves commendably in every [way].

19 And I especially urge [you] to do this, so that I may be restored to you more quickly.

New International Version NIV

1 Keep on loving one another as brothers and sisters.

2 Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.

3 Continue to remember those in prison as if you were together with them in prison, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering.

4 Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.

5 Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.”

6 So we say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?”

7 Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith.

8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

9 Do not be carried away by all kinds of strange teachings. It is good for our hearts to be strengthened by grace, not by eating ceremonial foods, which is of no benefit to those who do so.

10 We have an altar from which those who minister at the tabernacle have no right to eat.

11 The high priest carries the blood of animals into the Most Holy Place as a sin offering, but the bodies are burned outside the camp.

12 And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate to make the people holy through his own blood.

13 Let us, then, go to him outside the camp, bearing the disgrace he bore.

14 For here we do not have an enduring city, but we are looking for the city that is to come.

15 Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise—the fruit of lips that openly profess his name.

16 And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.

17 Have confidence in your leaders and submit to their authority, because they keep watch over you as those who must give an account. Do this so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no benefit to you.

18 Pray for us. We are sure that we have a clear conscience and desire to live honorably in every way.

19 I particularly urge you to pray so that I may be restored to you soon.
