Hebrews 13:14-25

14For here 1we do not have a lasting city, but we are seeking 2the city which is to come. 153Through Him then, let us continually offer up a 4sacrifice of praise to God, that is, 5the fruit of lips that 6give thanks to His name. 16And do not neglect doing good and 7sharing, for 8with such sacrifices God is pleased.

179Obey your leaders and submit to them, for 10they keep watch over your souls as those who will give an account. 11Let them do this with joy and not 12with grief, for this would be unprofitable for you.

1813Pray for us, for we are sure that we have a 14good conscience, desiring to conduct ourselves honorably in all things. 19And I urge you all the more to do this, 15so that I may be restored to you the sooner.

20Now 16the God of peace, who 17brought up from the dead the 18great Shepherd of the sheep 19through 20the blood of the 21eternal covenant, even Jesus our Lord, 2122equip you in every good thing to do His will, 23working in us that 24which is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, 25to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

22But 26I urge you, 27brethren, 28bear with 29this 30word of exhortation, for 31I have written to you briefly. 2332Take notice that 33our brother Timothy has been released, with whom, if he comes soon, I will see you. 24Greet 34all of your leaders and all the 3536saints. Those from 37Italy greet you.

2538Grace be with you all.
