10 We have an altar (A)from which those who serve the tent[a] have no right to eat. 11 For (B)the bodies of those animals whose blood is brought into the holy places by the high priest as a sacrifice for sin are burned (C)outside the camp. 12 So Jesus also (D)suffered (E)outside the gate in order to sanctify the people (F)through his own blood. 13 Therefore let us go to him outside the camp and bear (G)the reproach he endured. 14 For (H)here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is to come. 15 (I)Through him then let us continually offer up (J)a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, (K)the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name. 16 Do not neglect to do good and (L)to share what you have, for such (M)sacrifices are pleasing to God.

  1. Hebrews 13:10 Or tabernacle

10 We have an altar from which those who minister at the tabernacle(A) have no right to eat.(B)

11 The high priest carries the blood of animals into the Most Holy Place as a sin offering,(C) but the bodies are burned outside the camp.(D) 12 And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate(E) to make the people holy(F) through his own blood.(G) 13 Let us, then, go to him(H) outside the camp, bearing the disgrace he bore.(I) 14 For here we do not have an enduring city,(J) but we are looking for the city that is to come.(K)

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