Hebrews 13

New International Version

Concluding Exhortations

13 Keep on loving one another as brothers and sisters.^(A) ²Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers,^(B) for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.^(C) ³Continue to remember those in prison^(D) as if you were together with them in prison, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering.

⁴Marriage should be honored by all,^(E) and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.^(F) ⁵Keep your lives free from the love of money^(G) and be content with what you have,^(H) because God has said,

“Never will I leave you;
never will I forsake you.”^[a]^(I)

⁶So we say with confidence,

“The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid.
What can mere mortals do to me?”^[b]^(J)

⁷Remember your leaders,^(K) who spoke the word of God^(L) to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate^(M) their faith. ⁸Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.^(N)

⁹Do not be carried away by all kinds of strange teachings.^(O) It is good for our hearts to be strengthened^(P) by grace, not by eating ceremonial foods,^(Q) which is of no benefit to those who do so.^(R) ¹⁰We have an altar from which those who minister at the tabernacle^(S) have no right to eat.^(T)

¹¹The high priest carries the blood of animals into the Most Holy Place as a sin offering,^(U) but the bodies are burned outside the camp.^(V) ¹²And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate^(W) to make the people holy^(X) through his own blood.^(Y) ¹³Let us, then, go to him^(Z) outside the camp, bearing the disgrace he bore.^(AA) ¹⁴For here we do not have an enduring city,^(AB) but we are looking for the city that is to come.^(AC)

¹⁵Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice^(AD) of praise—the fruit of lips^(AE) that openly profess his name. ¹⁶And do not forget to do good and to share with others,^(AF) for with such sacrifices^(AG) God is pleased.

¹⁷Have confidence in your leaders^(AH) and submit to their authority, because they keep watch over you^(AI) 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.

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

Benediction and Final Greetings

²⁰Now may the God of peace,^(AM) who through the blood of the eternal covenant^(AN) brought back from the dead^(AO) our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep,^(AP) ²¹equip you with everything good for doing his will,^(AQ) and may he work in us^(AR) what is pleasing to him,^(AS) through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.^(AT)

²²Brothers and sisters, I urge you to bear with my word of exhortation, for in fact I have written to you quite briefly.^(AU)

²³I want you to know that our brother Timothy^(AV) has been released. If he arrives soon, I will come with him to see you.

²⁴Greet all your leaders^(AW) and all the Lord’s people. Those from Italy^(AX) send you their greetings.

²⁵Grace be with you all.^(AY)

Îndemnuri finale

13 Stăruiţi în dragostea frăţească! ²Nu neglijaţi să arătaţi ospitalitate străinilor, pentru că, prin aceasta, unii au găzduit, fără să ştie, îngeri! ³Amintiţi-vă de cei care sunt închişi, ca şi cum aţi fi închişi împreună cu ei, şi de cei care sunt torturaţi, ca şi cum voi înşivă aţi fi în suferinţă! ⁴Căsătoria să fie onorată în toate, iar patul să fie păstrat nepângărit, pentru că Dumnezeu îi va judeca pe cei desfrânaţi şi adulteri! ⁵Să nu fiţi dintre cei care iubesc banii! Fiţi mulţumiţi cu ceea ce aveţi, pentru că El a spus: „Nicidecum nu te voi părăsi, nici nu te voi uita!“^[a] ⁶Astfel, putem spune cu încredere:

„Domnul este ajutorul meu; de aceea nu mă voi teme!
Ce-mi poate face un om?!“^[b]

⁷Amintiţi-vă de conducătorii voştri, care v-au spus Cuvântul lui Dumnezeu! Uitaţi-vă la sfârşitul felului lor de viaţă şi urmaţi-le exemplul de credinţă! ⁸Isus Cristos este acelaşi – ieri, astăzi şi în veci! ⁹Să nu fiţi duşi în rătăcire de tot felul de învăţături străine, pentru că este bine pentru inimă să fie întărită prin har, nu prin porunci cu privire la mâncare, porunci care nu i-au ajutat pe cei ce au ascultat de ele! ¹⁰Noi avem un altar de unde cei care slujesc la cort nu au dreptul să mănânce. ¹¹Căci sângele animalelor este adus ca jertfă pentru păcate în Locul Preasfânt de către marele preot, iar trupurile animalelor sunt arse afară din tabără. ¹²De aceea, Isus a suferit dincolo de poarta cetăţii, ca să sfinţească poporul prin sângele Lui. ¹³Aşadar, să ieşim la El, în afara taberei, şi să îndurăm ruşinea Lui. ¹⁴Noi nu avem aici o cetate permanentă, ci suntem în căutarea celei care urmează să vină. ¹⁵Prin El deci să-I aducem întotdeauna o jertfă de laudă lui Dumnezeu, adică rodul buzelor noastre care mărturisesc Numele Lui! ¹⁶Să nu uitaţi binefacerea şi dărnicia, pentru că lui Dumnezeu astfel de jertfe Îi plac!

¹⁷Ascultaţi de conducătorii voştri şi supuneţi-vă lor, căci ei au grijă de sufletele voastre şi vor fi răspunzători de ele, pentru ca astfel ei să facă aceasta cu bucurie şi nu gemând, lucru care nu v-ar fi de nici un folos!

¹⁸Rugaţi-vă pentru noi! Suntem siguri că avem o conştiinţă bună, dorind să ne comportăm bine în toate. ¹⁹Vă îndemn tot mai mult să faceţi aceasta, ca să vă fiu trimis înapoi repede!

²⁰Dumnezeul păcii, Care L-a adus înapoi dintre cei morţi pe Domnul nostru Isus, marele Păstor^[c] al oilor, prin sângele legământului veşnic, ²¹să vă echipeze cu orice lucru bun, pentru a-I face voia, lucrând între noi ceea ce este plăcut înaintea Lui, prin Isus Cristos, Căruia I se cuvine slava în vecii vecilor! Amin.

²²Vă îndemn, fraţilor, să primiţi cuvântul de încurajare pe care vi l-am scris. De aceea v-am scris pe scurt. ²³Vreau să ştiţi că fratele nostru Timotei a fost eliberat. Dacă soseşte curând, va fi cu mine când vă voi vedea.

²⁴Salutaţi-i pe toţi conducătorii voştri şi pe toţi sfinţii! Cei din Italia vă salută. ²⁵Harul să fie cu voi toţi!

Hebrews 13

King James Version

13 Let brotherly love continue.

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

³Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; and them which suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body.

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

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

⁷Remember 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.

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

⁹Be 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.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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,

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.

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

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

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

²⁵Grace be with you all. Amen.

Concluding Moral Directions

13 Let ^(A)brotherly love continue. ²^(B)Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing ^(C)some have unwittingly entertained angels. ³^(D)Remember the prisoners as if chained with them—those who are mistreated—since you yourselves are in the body also.

⁴^(E)Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed undefiled; ^(F)but fornicators and adulterers God will judge.

⁵Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, ^(G)“I will never leave you nor forsake you.” ⁶So we may boldly say:

^(H)“The Lord is my helper;
I will not fear.
What can man do to me?”

Concluding Religious Directions

⁷Remember those who ^[a]rule over you, who have spoken the word of God to you, whose faith follow, considering the outcome of their conduct. ⁸Jesus Christ is ^(I)the same yesterday, today, and forever. ⁹Do not be carried ^[b]about with various and strange doctrines. For it is good that the heart be established by grace, not with foods which have not profited those who have been occupied with them.

¹⁰We have an altar from which those who serve the tabernacle have no right to eat. ¹¹For the bodies of those animals, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned outside the camp. ¹²Therefore Jesus also, that He might ^[c]sanctify the people with His own blood, suffered outside the gate. ¹³Therefore let us go forth to Him, outside the camp, bearing ^(J)His reproach. ¹⁴For here we have no continuing city, but we seek the one to come. ¹⁵^(K)Therefore by Him let us continually offer ^(L)the sacrifice of praise to God, that is, ^(M)the fruit of our lips, ^[d]giving thanks to His name. ¹⁶^(N)But do not forget to do good and to share, for ^(O)with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

¹⁷^(P)Obey those who ^[e]rule over you, and be submissive, for ^(Q)they watch out for your souls, as those who must give account. Let them do so with joy and not with grief, for that would be unprofitable for you.

Prayer Requested

¹⁸^(R)Pray for us; for we are confident that we have ^(S)a good conscience, in all things desiring to live honorably. ¹⁹But I especially urge you to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.

Benediction, Final Exhortation, Farewell

²⁰Now may ^(T)the God of peace ^(U)who brought up our Lord Jesus from the dead, ^(V)that great Shepherd of the sheep, ^(W)through the blood of the everlasting covenant, ²¹make you ^[f]complete in every good work to do His will, ^(X)working in ^[g]you what is well pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.

²²And I appeal to you, brethren, bear with the word of exhortation, for I have written to you in few words. ²³Know that our brother Timothy has been set free, with whom I shall see you if he comes shortly.

²⁴Greet all those who ^[h]rule over you, and all the saints. Those from Italy greet you.

Sacrifices Pleasing to God

13 Let ^(A)brotherly love continue. ²^(B)Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby ^(C)some have entertained angels unawares. ³^(D)Remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them, and those who are mistreated, since you also are in the body. ⁴^(E)Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge ^(F)the sexually immoral and adulterous. ⁵Keep your life ^(G)free from love of money, and ^(H)be content with what you have, for he has said, ^(I)“I will never leave you nor forsake you.” ⁶So we can confidently say,

^(J)“The Lord is my helper;
^(K)I will not fear;
what can man do to me?”

⁷Remember ^(L)your leaders, those who spoke to you the word of God.

¹⁷Obey ^(AD)your leaders and submit to them, ^(AE)for they are keeping watch over your souls, as those who will have to ^(AF)give an account. ^(AG)Let them do this with joy and not with groaning, for that would be of no advantage to you.

¹⁸^(AH)Pray for us, for we are sure that we have a clear conscience, desiring to act honorably in all things. ¹⁹I urge you the more earnestly to do this in order ^(AI)that I may be restored to you the sooner.

Benediction

²⁰Now ^(AJ)may the God of peace ^(AK)who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, ^(AL)the great shepherd of the sheep, by ^(AM)the blood of the eternal covenant, ²¹^(AN)equip you with everything good that you may do his will, ^(AO)working in us^[b] that which is pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, ^(AP)to whom be glory forever and ever.
