Hebrews 13

Third Millennium Bible TMB

1 Let brotherly love continue.

2 Be not forgetful to entertain strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.

3 Remember those who are in bonds as though you were bound with them, and thse who suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body.

4 Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled; but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.

5 Let your manner of living be without covetousness, and be content with such things as ye have. For He hath said, "I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee";

6 so that we may boldly say, "The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me."

7 Remember those who have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the Word of God. Follow their faith, considering the outcome of their manner of living.

8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, and today, and for ever.

9 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 those who have been occupied therewith.

10 We have an altar from which they have no right to eat, who serve the tabernacle.

11 For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned outside the camp.

12 Therefore Jesus also, that He might sanctify the people with His own blood, suffered outside the gate.

13 Let us go forth therefore unto Him outside the camp, bearing His reproach.

14 For here we have no continuing city, but we seek one to come.

15 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.

16 But to do good and to communicate forget not, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

17 Obey those who have the rule over you and submit yourselves, for they keep watch over your souls as ones who must give an account, that they may do it with joy and not with grief, for that is unprofitable for you.

18 Pray for us, for we trust we have a good conscience in all things, willing to live honestly.

19 But I beseech you the more earnestly to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.

20 Now the God of peace, who brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,

21 make you perfect in every good work to do His will, working in you that which is well pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

22 And I beseech you, brethren, suffer the word of exhortation, for I have written this letter unto you with few words.

23 Know ye that our brother Timothy is set at liberty, with whom, if he come shortly, I will see you.

24 Salute all those who have the rule over you, and all the saints. Those from Italy salute you.

25 Grace be with you all. Amen.

GOD'S WORD Translation GW

1 Continue to love each other.

2 Don't forget to show hospitality to believers you don't know. By doing this some believers have shown hospitality to angels without being aware of it.

3 Remember those in prison as if you were in prison with them. Remember those who are mistreated as if you were being mistreated.

4 Marriage is honorable in every way, so husbands and wives should be faithful to each other. God will judge those who commit sexual sins, especially those who commit adultery.

5 Don't love money. Be happy with what you have because God has said, "I will never abandon you or leave you."

6 So we can confidently say, "The Lord is my helper. I will not be afraid. What can mortals do to me?"

7 Remember your leaders who have spoken God's word to you. Think about how their lives turned out, and imitate their faith.

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

9 Don't get carried away by all kinds of unfamiliar teachings. Gaining inner strength from God's kindness is good for us. This strength does not come from following rules about food, rules that don't help those who follow them.

10 Those who serve at the tent have no right to eat what is sacrificed at our altar.

11 The chief priest brings the blood of animals into the holy place as an offering for sin. But the bodies of those animals were burned outside the Israelite camp.

12 That is why Jesus suffered outside the gates of Jerusalem. He suffered to make the people holy with his own blood.

13 So we must go to him outside the camp and endure the insults he endured.

14 We don't have a permanent city here on earth, but we are looking for the city that we will have in the future.

15 Through Jesus we should always bring God a sacrifice of praise, that is, words that acknowledge him.

16 Don't forget to do good things for others and to share what you have with them. These are the kinds of sacrifices that please God.

17 Obey your leaders, and accept their authority. They take care of you because they are responsible for you. Obey them so that they may do this work joyfully and not complain about you. (Causing them to complain would not be to your advantage.)

18 Pray for us. We are sure that our consciences are clear because we want to live honorably in every way.

19 I especially ask for your prayers so that I may come back to you soon.

20 The God of peace brought the great shepherd of the sheep, our Lord Jesus, back to life through the blood of an eternal promise.

21 May this God of peace prepare you to do every good thing he wants. May he work in us through Jesus Christ to do what is pleasing to him. Glory belongs to Jesus Christ forever. Amen.

22 I urge you, brothers and sisters, to listen patiently to my encouraging words. I have written you a short letter.

23 You know that Timothy, our brother, has been freed. If he comes here soon, both of us will visit you.

24 Greet all your leaders and all God's holy people. Those who are with us from Italy greet you.

25 May God's good will be with all of you!
