Mga Hebreo 13
Magandang Balita Biblia (with Deuterocanon)
Paglilingkod na Nakalulugod sa Diyos
13 Patuloy kayong magmahalan bilang magkakapatid kay Cristo. 2 Palaging(A) maging bukás ang inyong mga tahanan para sa mga taga-ibang bayan. May ilang tao noon na nakapagpatulóy ng mga anghel, lingid sa kanilang kaalaman. 3 Alalahanin ninyo ang mga nakabilanggo, na parang kayo'y nakabilanggo ring kasama nila. Damayan din ninyo ang mga pinagmamalupitan, na parang kayo'y dumaranas din ng ganoon.
4 Dapat(B) ituring na marangal ng lahat ang pag-aasawa at maging tapat kayo sa isa't isa, sapagkat hahatulan ng Diyos ang mga nakikiapid at nangangalunya.
5 Huwag(C) kayong magmukhang pera; at masiyahan na kayo sa anumang nasa inyo. Sapagkat sinabi ng Diyos, “Hindi kita iiwan ni pababayaan man.” 6 Kaya't(D) malakas ang loob nating masasabi,
“Ang Panginoon ang tumutulong sa akin,
hindi ako matatakot.
Ano ang magagawa sa akin ng tao?”
7 Alalahanin ninyo ang mga namumuno sa inyo, na nagpahayag sa inyo ng salita ng Diyos. Isipin ninyo kung paano sila namuhay, at tularan ninyo ang kanilang pananampalataya. 8 Kung sino si Jesu-Cristo noon ay siya rin ngayon at magpakailanman. 9 Huwag kayong patangay sa mga sari-sari at kakaibang katuruan. Mas mabuti para sa atin ang mapanatag ang ating kalooban sa pamamagitan ng kagandahang-loob ng Diyos kaysa sa pamamagitan ng pagsunod sa mga walang pakinabang na mga utos tungkol sa pagkain.
10 Tayo'y may isang dambana, at ang mga paring naglilingkod sa sambahan ay hindi maaaring kumain ng mga inihandog sa dambanang ito. 11 Ang(E) dugo ng mga hayop ay dinadala ng pinakapunong pari sa Dakong Kabanal-banalan upang ialay bilang handog dahil sa kasalanan, ngunit ang katawan ng mga hayop ay sinusunog sa labas ng kampo. 12 Gayundin naman, namatay si Jesus sa labas ng lungsod upang linisin niya ang tao sa kanilang kasalanan, sa pamamagitan ng kanyang dugo. 13 Kaya't pumunta tayo sa kanya sa labas ng kampo at magtiis din ng kahirapang kanyang tiniis. 14 Sapagkat hindi rito sa lupa ang tunay na lungsod natin, at ang hinahanap natin ay ang lungsod na darating. 15 [Kaya't][a] lagi tayong mag-alay ng papuri bilang handog sa Diyos sa pamamagitan ni Jesus, papuring mula sa ating mga labi na nagpapahayag ng ating pagkilala sa kanyang pangalan. 16 At huwag nating kaligtaan ang paggawa ng mabuti at ang pagtulong sa kapwa, sapagkat iyan ang alay na kinalulugdan ng Diyos.
17 Pasakop kayo at sumunod sa mga namamahala sa inyo. Sila'y nangangalaga sa inyo, at mananagot sila sa Diyos sa gawaing ito. Kung sila'y susundin ninyo, magagalak sila sa pagtupad ng kanilang tungkulin; kung hindi, sila'y mamimighati, at hindi ito makakabuti sa inyo.
18 Ipanalangin ninyo kami. Nakakatiyak kaming malinis ang aming budhi at hinahangad naming mabuhay nang matuwid sa lahat ng panahon. 19 Higit sa lahat, hinihiling kong ipanalangin ninyo na ako'y makabalik agad sa inyo.
Panalangin
20 Ang Diyos ng kapayapaan ang siyang muling bumuhay sa ating Panginoong Jesus, na naging Dakilang Pastol ng mga tupa dahil sa kanyang dugo na nagpatibay sa walang hanggang tipan. 21 Nawa'y ipagkaloob niya sa inyo ang lahat ng kailangan ninyo upang maisagawa ang kanyang kalooban, at sa pamamagitan ni Jesu-Cristo ay gawin niya sa atin ang nakalulugod sa kanya. Papurihan nawa si Cristo magpakailanman! Amen.
Panghuling Pangungusap
22 Mga kapatid, hinihiling ko na pagtiyagaan ninyong pakinggan ang mga pangaral kong ito sapagkat hindi naman gaanong mahaba ang sulat na ito. 23 Nais ko ring malaman ninyo na pinalaya na ang ating kapatid na si Timoteo, at kung darating siya agad, isasama ko siya pagpunta ko riyan.
24 Ikumusta ninyo kami sa mga namumuno sa inyo at sa lahat ng hinirang ng Diyos. Kinukumusta kayo ng mga kapatid sa Italia.
25 Nawa'y sumainyong lahat ang kagandahang-loob ng Diyos. [Amen.][b]
Hebrews 13
King James Version
13 Let brotherly love continue.
2 Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
3 Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; and them which suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body.
4 Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.
5 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 So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.
7 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 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
9 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 We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat which serve the tabernacle.
11 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 Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate.
13 Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach.
14 For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come.
15 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 But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.
17 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 Pray for us: for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to live honestly.
19 But I beseech you the rather to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.
20 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,
21 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.
22 And I beseech you, brethren, suffer the word of exhortation: for I have written a letter unto you in few words.
23 Know ye that our brother Timothy is set at liberty; with whom, if he come shortly, I will see you.
24 Salute all them that have the rule over you, and all the saints. They of Italy salute you.
25 Grace 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.
5 Let 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.” 6 So we may boldly say:
(H)“The Lord is my helper;
I will not fear.
What can man do to me?”
Concluding Religious Directions
7 Remember those who [a]rule over you, who have spoken the word of God to you, whose faith follow, considering the outcome of their conduct. 8 Jesus Christ is (I)the same yesterday, today, and forever. 9 Do 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.
10 We have an altar from which those who serve the tabernacle have no right to eat. 11 For the bodies of those animals, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned outside the camp. 12 Therefore Jesus also, that He might [c]sanctify the people with His own blood, suffered outside the gate. 13 Therefore let us go forth to Him, outside the camp, bearing (J)His reproach. 14 For 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. 19 But I especially urge you to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.
Benediction, Final Exhortation, Farewell
20 Now 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, 21 make 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.
22 And I appeal to you, brethren, bear with the word of exhortation, for I have written to you in few words. 23 Know that our brother Timothy has been set free, with whom I shall see you if he comes shortly.
24 Greet all those who [h]rule over you, and all the saints. Those from Italy greet you.
25 Grace be with you all. Amen.
