Hebrews 13
1 Let the love of the brethren continue in you;
Let brotherly love continue.
2 and kindness to strangers forget not; for in this some who were made worthy, while not perceiving it, have received angels.
Do not forget hospitality to strangers, for in doing so some have entertained angels without knowing it.
3 Remember those who are bound, as if with them ye were bound: be mindful of those who are afflicted, as men (should) who are clothed with flesh.
Remember the prisoners as if chained with them, those who are being mistreated as if you yourselves were physically there.
4 Honourable is marriage among all, and their bed is undefiled; but whoremongers and adulterers Aloha judgeth.
Marriage is honorable among all and the marriage bed undefiled, but God will judge fornicators and adulterers.
5 Let not your mind love money; but let whatever ye have suffice you: for the Lord hath said, I will not abandon thee, nor withhold from thee support.
Your way of life should be free from the love of money, being content with what you have, because He Himself has said: “I absolutely will not desert you; I most certainly will not abandon you.”
6 And it is ours to say confidently, My Lord is my helper, I will not fear: what a man do to me?
So we can say with confidence: “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?”
7 Remember your leaders; those who have spoken to you the word of Aloha: reflect on the consummation of their course, and imitate their faith.
Remember your leaders, those who spoke the Word of God to you, whose faith imitate, considering the outcome of their conduct.
Jesus Christ is Himself, yesterday and today and into the ages. (aiōn g165)
9 Unto strange and variable doctrines be not led away; for it is good that with grace we confirm our hearts, and not by meats, because they have not been helped who have walked in them.
Do not be carried away by various and strange teachings, because it is good that the heart be established by grace, not foods, by which those who were so occupied were not benefited.
10 But we have an altar of which it is not lawful for them to eat who minister in the tabernacle.
We have an altar from which those who serve in the Tabernacle have no right to eat.
11 For those animals, whose blood the high priest took into the sanctuary for sins, had their flesh burned without the camp.
Because the bodies of the animals—whose blood, concerning sin, is brought into the Holies by the high priest—are burned up outside the camp,
12 On this account Jeshu, that he might sanctify his people by his blood, without the city suffered.
therefore Jesus also, so that He might sanctify the people by His own blood, suffered outside the city gate.
13 Therefore let us also go forth unto him without the camp, being, clothed with his ignominy.
So then, let us go out to Him, outside the camp, bearing His disgrace;
14 For we have no city which is permanent here; but one that is to come we are expecting.
because here we do not have a permanent city, but we seek the coming one.
15 By him, therefore, let us offer up at all time unto Aloha the sacrifices of praise, which are the fruits of the lips which give thanks to his name.
Through Him therefore, at all times, let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God—the fruit of lips that identify with His name.
16 And forget not compassion and communication to the poor: for with these sacrifices a man pleaseth Aloha.
(But do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.)
17 Be persuaded by your leaders, and obey them; for they watch for your souls as men who must render an account of you, that with joy they may do this, and not with groans; for that is not profitable for you.
Obey your leaders and submit, for they keep watch over your souls, as those who must give account, so that they may do it with joy and not sighing (which would be unprofitable for you).
18 Pray for us; for we are confident we have a good conscience, that in all things we desire to act aright.
Pray for us; for we are confident that we have a good conscience, desiring to live commendably in all things;
19 And more especially I ask from you to do this, that I may be turned to you quickly.
I especially urge you to do this so that I may be restored to you more quickly.
20 But the God of peace, who brought up from the house of the dead the great Shepherd of the flock, by the blood of the eternal covenant, who is Jeshu Meshiha, our Lord, (aiōnios g166)
Now 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— (aiōnios g166)
21 make you perfect in every good work, that ye may do his will, and effect in you whatever is good before him, by Jeshu Meshiha: to him be glory unto the age of ages. Amen. (aiōn g165)
equip you for every good work to do His will, working in you what is well pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
22 Now I request from you, my brethren, that ye prolong your minds on the word of exhortation; for in a few (words) I have written to you.
Now I appeal to you, brothers, bear with this word of exhortation, for I have written to you in few words.
23 But know that our brother Timotheos is released; and if he come soon, with him I will see you.
Know that brother Timothy has been released, with whom I will see you, if he comes quickly.
24 Ask for the peace of all your leaders, and of all the saints: they of Italia ask for your peace.
Greet all your leaders and all the saints. Those from Italy greet you.
25 Grace be with you all. Amen.
The Grace be with you all. Amen.
