13:1LET brotherly love continue.

13:2Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.

13:3Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; and them which suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body.

13:4Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.

13:5Let 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.

13:6So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.

13:7Remember 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.

13:8Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.

13:9Be 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.

13:10We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat which serve the tabernacle.

13:11For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned without the camp.

13:12Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate.

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

13:14For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come.

13:15By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.

13:16But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

13:17Obey 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.

13:18Pray for us: for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to live honestly.
