Hebrews 13:17-19

New International Version

¹⁷ Have confidence in your leaders^(A) and submit to their authority, because they keep watch over you^(B) as those who must give an account. Do this so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no benefit to you.

¹⁸ Pray for us.^(C) We are sure that we have a clear conscience^(D) and desire to live honorably in every way. ¹⁹ I particularly urge you to pray so that I may be restored to you soon.^(E)
