1 | Let brotherly love continue . |
2 | Be not forgetful to entertain strangers : for thereby some have entertained angels unawares . |
3 | Remember them that are in bonds , as bound with them ; [and] them which suffer adversity , as being yourselves also in the body . |
4 | Marriage [is] honourable in all , and the bed undefiled : but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge . |
5 | [Let your] conversation [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 them which have the rule over you , who have spoken unto you the word of God : whose faith follow , considering the end of [their] conversation . |
8 | Jesus Christ the same yesterday , and to day , 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 them that have been occupied therein . |
10 | We have an altar , whereof they have no right to eat which 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 without the camp . |
12 | Wherefore Jesus also , that he might sanctify the people with his own blood , suffered without the gate . |
13 | Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp , bearing his reproach . |
14 | For here have we 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 them that have the rule over you , and submit yourselves : for they watch for your souls , as they that must give 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 rather to do this , that I may be restored to you the sooner . |
20 | Now the God of peace , that brought again 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 wellpleasing 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 a letter unto you in 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 them that have the rule over you , and all the saints . They of Italy salute you . |
25 | Grace [be] with you all . Amen . to the Hebrews from Italy , by Timothy > |
