Hebrews 13, side by side

¹Let brotherly love continue.

²Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it.

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

³Remember those in prison as if you were bound with them, and those who are mistreated as if you were suffering with them.

⁴Marriage should be honored by all and the marriage bed kept undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers.

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

⁵Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, for God has said: “Never will I leave you, never will I forsake you.”

⁵Let 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.

⁶So we say with confidence: “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?”

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

⁷Remember your leaders who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith.

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

⁸Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.

⁹Do not be carried away by all kinds of strange teachings, for it is good for the heart to be strengthened by grace and not by foods of no value to those devoted to them.

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

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

¹¹Although the high priest brings the blood of animals into the Holy Place as a sacrifice for sin, the bodies are burned outside the camp.

¹¹For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned without the camp.

¹²And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate, to sanctify the people by His own blood.

¹²Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate.

¹³Therefore let us go to Him outside the camp, bearing the disgrace He bore.

¹³Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach.

¹⁴For here we do not have a permanent city, but we are looking for the city that is to come.

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

¹⁵Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise, the fruit of lips that confess His name.

¹⁵By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.

¹⁶And do not neglect to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.

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

¹⁷Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they watch over your souls as those who must give an account. To this end, allow them to lead with joy and not with grief, for that would be of no advantage to you.

¹⁷Obey 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.

¹⁸Pray for us; we are convinced that we have a clear conscience and desire to live honorably in every way.

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

¹⁹And I especially urge you to pray that I may be restored to you soon.

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

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

²⁰Now 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,

²¹equip you with every good thing to do His will. And may He accomplish in us what is pleasing in His sight through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.

²¹Make 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.

²²I urge you, brothers, to bear with my word of exhortation, for I have only written to you briefly.

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

²³Be aware that our brother Timothy has been released. If he arrives soon, I will come with him to see you.

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

²⁴Greet all your leaders and all the saints. Those from Italy send you greetings.

²⁴Salute all them that have the rule over you, and all the saints. They of Italy salute you.

²⁵Grace be with all of you.

²⁵Grace be with you all. Amen.
