let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:
29
For our
God
is
a consuming fire.
CHAPTER 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.
