< Hebræos 13 >
1 Charitas fraternitatis maneat in vobis.
Let brotherly love continue.
2 Et hospitalitatem nolite oblivisci, per hanc enim placuerunt quidam, Angelis hospitio receptis.
Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
3 Mementote vinctorum, tamquam simul vincti: et laborantium, tamquam et ipsi in corpore morantes.
Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; [and] them which suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body.
4 Honorabile connubium in omnibus, et thorus immaculatus. Fornicatores enim, et adulteros iudicabit Deus.
Marriage [is] honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.
5 Sint mores sine avaritia, contenti praesentibus: ipse enim dixit: Non te deseram, neque derelinquam.
[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 Ita ut confidenter dicamus: Dominus mihi adiutor: non timebo quid faciat mihi homo.
So that we may boldly say, The Lord [is] my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.
7 Mementote praepositorum vestrorum, qui vobis locuti sunt verbum Dei: quorum intuentes exitum conversationis, imitamini fidem.
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 Iesus Christus heri, et hodie: ipse et in saecula. (aiōn )
Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever. (aiōn )
9 Doctrinis variis, et peregrinis nolite abduci. Optimum est enim gratia stabilire cor, non escis: quae non profuerunt ambulantibus in eis.
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 Habemus altare, de quo edere non habent potestatem, qui tabernaculo deserviunt.
We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat which serve the tabernacle.
11 Quorum enim animalium infertur sanguis pro peccato in Sancta per pontificem, horum corpora cremantur extra castra.
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 Propter quod et Iesus, ut sanctificaret per suum sanguinem populum, extra portam passus est.
Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate.
13 Exeamus igitur ad eum extra castra, improperium eius portantes.
Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach.
14 Non enim habemus hic manentem civitatem, sed futuram inquirimus.
For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come.
15 Per ipsum ergo offeramus hostiam laudis semper Deo, id est, fructum labiorum confitentium nomini eius.
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 Beneficentiae autem, et communionis nolite oblivisci: talibus enim hostiis promeretur Deus.
But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.
17 Obedite praepositis vestris, et subiacete eis. Ipsi enim pervigilant quasi rationem pro animabus vestris reddituri, ut cum gaudio hoc faciant, et non gementes: hoc enim non expedit vobis.
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 Orate pro nobis: confidimus enim quia bonam conscientiam habemus in omnibus bene volentes conversari.
Pray for us: for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to live honestly.
19 Amplius autem deprecor vos hoc facere, quo celerius restituar vobis.
But I beseech [you] the rather to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.
20 Deus autem pacis, qui eduxit de mortuis pastorem magnum ovium, in sanguine testamenti aeterni, Dominum nostrum Iesum Christum, (aiōnios )
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, (aiōnios )
21 aptet vos in omni bono, ut faciatis eius voluntatem: faciens in vobis quod placeat coram se per Iesum Christum: cui est gloria in saecula saeculorum. Amen. (aiōn )
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. (aiōn )
22 Rogo autem vos fratres, ut sufferatis verbum solatii. Etenim perpaucis scripsi vobis.
And I beseech you, brethren, suffer the word of exhortation: for I have written a letter unto you in few words.
23 Cognoscite fratrem nostrum Timotheum dimissum: cum quo (si celerius venerit) videbo vos.
Know ye that [our] brother Timothy is set at liberty; with whom, if he come shortly, I will see you.
24 Salutate omnes praepositos vestros, et omnes sanctos. Salutant vos de Italia fratres.
Salute all them that have the rule over you, and all the saints. They of Italy salute you.
25 Gratia cum omnibus vobis. Amen.
Grace [be] with you all. Amen.
