10 We have an altar (A)from which those (B)who serve the [a]tabernacle have no right to eat. 11 For (C)the bodies of those animals whose blood is brought into the Holy Place by the high priest as an offering for sin are burned outside the camp. 12 Therefore Jesus also suffered (D)outside the gate, (E)that He might sanctify the people (F)through His own blood. 13 So then, let us go out to Him outside the camp, (G)bearing His reproach. 14 For here (H)we do not have a lasting city, but we are seeking (I)the city which is to come.

God-pleasing Sacrifices

15 (J)Through Him then, let’s continually offer up a (K)sacrifice of praise to God, that is, (L)the fruit of lips praising His name. 16 And do not neglect doing good and (M)sharing, for (N)with such sacrifices God is pleased.

  1. Hebrews 13:10 Or sacred tent

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.
