Hebrews 13:17 RHE/NIV - Online Parallel Bible
| Douay-Rheims (RHE) | New International Version (NIV) |
| 17 Obey 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. | 17 Obey your leaders and submit to their authority. They keep watch over you as men who must give an account. Obey them so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no advantage to you. |
