Hebrews:13
Seeker Overlay ON
*
You should continue to love one another as brothers .
*
Show hospitality to strangers ,
for some have entertained angels without knowing it .
*
Remember those who are in prison ,
as though you were in prison with them .
Remember those who are suffering ,
as though you were suffering as they are .
*
Let marriage be honorable among all ,
and let the marriage bed be undefiled :
for God will judge fornicators and adulterers .
*
You should be free from the love of money .
Be content with what you have ,
for he has said : »
I will not leave you .
I will not forsake you .«
*
So that with good confidence we say : »
Jehovah is my helper ;
I will not fear :
What shall man do to me ?« (
Psalm strkjv @
56:11 )
*
Remember those who are taking the lead among you ,
men that spoke the Word of God to you .
Consider their behavior and imitate their faith .
*
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever .
*
Do not be carried away by varied and strange teachings .
It is good that the heart is established by grace and not by food .
Those who are occupied by them are not benefited .
*
We have an altar from which those who serve the tabernacle have no right to eat .
*
For the bodies of those animals whose blood is brought into the Holy Place by the high priest as an offering for sin ,
are burned outside the camp .
*
Jesus suffered outside the gate that he might sanctify the people through his own blood .
*
Let us therefore go forth to him outside the camp ,
bearing his reproach .
*
We do not have a city that continues .
We seek after the city that is to come .
*
Let us continually offer a sacrifice of praise to God through him ,
that is ,
the fruit of lips that make confession to his name .
*
Do not forget to do good and to communicate ,
for with such sacrifices God is well pleased .
*
Obey those who lead you .
Submit to them :
for they watch in behalf of your lives and must account for this .
Obey them that their work may be a joy and not a burden ;
that would be without gain for you .
*
Pray for us ,
for we are persuaded that we have a good conscience .
And we wish to live honorably in all things .
*
I exhort you the more exceedingly to do this ,
that I may be restored to you the sooner .
*
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 ,
*
make you perfect in every good thing .
May you 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 .
*
I urge you ,
brothers ,
bear with the word of exhortation .
I have written to you in few words .
*
Do you know that brother Timothy has been released ?
If he comes shortly ,
I will see you .
*
Greet all those who rule over you ,
and all the holy ones .
They in Italy greet you .
*
Grace be with you all .
Amen .
