| Hebrews 13: (ASV) |
| 1) Let love of the brethren continue. |
| 2) Forget not to show love unto strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares. |
| 3) Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; them that are ill-treated, as being yourselves also in the body. |
| 4) Let marriage be had in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled: for fornicators and adulterers God will judge. |
| 5) Be ye free from the love of money; content with such things as ye have: for himself hath said, I will in no wise fail thee, neither will I in any wise forsake thee. |
| 6) So that with good courage we say, The Lord is my helper; I will not fear: What shall man do unto me? |
| 7) Remember them that had the rule over you, men that spake unto you the word of God; and considering the issue of their life, imitate their faith. |
| 8) Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and to-day, yea and for ever. |
| 9) Be not carried away by divers and strange teachings: for it is good that the heart be established by grace; not by meats, wherein they that occupied themselves were not profited. |
| 10) We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat that serve the tabernacle. |
| 11) For the bodies of those beasts whose blood is brought into the holy place by the high priest as an offering for sin, are burned without the camp. |
| 12) Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people through his own blood, suffered without the gate. |
| 13) Let us therefore go forth unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach. |
| 14) For we have not here an abiding city, but we seek after the city which is to come. |
| 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. |
| 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 to them: for they watch in behalf of your souls, as they that shall give account; that they may do this with joy, and not with grief: for this were unprofitable for you. |
| 18) Pray for us: for we are persuaded that we have a good conscience, desiring to live honorably in all things. |
| 19) And I exhort you the more exceedingly to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner. |
| 20) Now the God of peace, who brought again from the dead the great shepherd of the sheep with the blood of an eternal covenant, even our Lord Jesus, |
| 21) make you perfect in every good thing to do his will, working in us that which is well-pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be the glory for ever and ever. Amen. |
| 22) But I exhort you, brethren, bear with the word of exhortation: for I have written unto you in few words. |
| 23) Know ye that our brother Timothy hath been 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. |
