Hebrews 13
13
1 May fraternal charity remain in you.
2 And do not be willing to forget hospitality. For by it, certain persons, without realizing it, have received Angels as guests.
3 Remember those who are prisoners, just as if you were imprisoned with them, and those who endure hardships, just as if you were in their place.
4 May marriage be honorable in every way, and may the marriage bed be immaculate. For God will judge fornicators and adulterers.
5 Let your behavior be without avarice; be content with what you are offered. For he himself has said, "I will not abandon you, and I will not neglect you."
6 So then, we may confidently say, "The Lord is my helper. I will not fear what man can do to me."
7 Remember your leaders, who have spoken the Word of God to you, whose faith you imitate, by observing the goal of their way of life:
8 Jesus Christ, yesterday and today; Jesus Christ forever.
9 Do not be led away by changing or strange doctrines. And it is best for the heart to be sustained by grace, not by foods. For the latter have not been as useful to those who walked by them.
10 We have an altar: those who serve in the tabernacle have no authority to eat from it.
11 For the bodies of those animals whose blood is carried into the Holy of holies by the high priest, on behalf of sin, are burned outside the camp.
12 Because of this, Jesus, too, in order to sanctify the people by his own blood, suffered outside the gate.
13 And so, let us go forth to him, outside the camp, bearing his reproach.
14 For in this place, we have no everlasting city; instead, we seek one in the future.
15 Therefore, through him, let us offer the sacrifice of continual praise to God, which is the fruit of lips confessing his name.
16 But do not be willing to forget good works and fellowship. For God is deserving of such sacrifices.
17 Obey your leaders and be subject to them. For they watch over you, as if to render an account of your souls. So then, may they do this with joy, and not with grief. Otherwise, it would not be as helpful to you.
18 Pray for us. For we trust that we have a good conscience, being willing to conduct ourselves well in all things.
19 And I beg you, all the more, to do this, so that I may be quickly returned to you.
20 Then may the God of peace, who led back from the dead that great Pastor of sheep, our Lord Jesus Christ, with the blood of the eternal testament,
21 equip you with all goodness, so that you may do his will. May he accomplish in you whatever is pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom is glory forever and ever. Amen.
22 And I beg you, brothers, that you may permit this word of consolation, especially since I have written to you with few words.
23 Know that our brother Timothy has been set free. If he arrives soon, then I will see you with him.
24 Greet all your leaders and all the saints. The brothers from Italy greet you.
25 Grace be with you all. Amen.

Hebrews 13
13
1Let ahavat achim (brotherly love) continue.
2Do not neglect hachnosas orchim (hospitality), for by this some without having da'as of it, have entertained malachim.
3Have zikaron of the prisoners in the beis hasohar, as if having been bound with sharsherot (chains) with them; and those being tortured as though you were also.
4Let the marriage Chuppah have respect in the eyes of all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for those guilty of gilui arayot (sexual immorality) and no'afim (adulterers), Hashem will judge.
5Fier zich (comport oneself) in your derech free of chamdanut (covetousness), being content with what you have, for He Himself has said, LO ARPECHA V'LO E'EZVECHA#13:5 Dt 31:6,8; Josh 1:5 (I will never desert you, nor will I ever forsake you),
6So that we say with bitachon, HASHEM LI my helper, LO IRA MAH YA'ASEH LI ADAM?#13:6 Ps 118:6 (The L-rd is my helper, I will not be afraid. What shall man do to me?)
7Remember your manhigim and be machshiv (respect) and mechabed (honor) those who spoke to you the dvar Hashem; and considering the toitzaa (outcome) of their derech, imitate their Emunah.
8Yehoshua — Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, the same etmol, hayom, ul'Olamim.
9Do not be carried away by various torot zarot; for it is tov for the lev to be given chizzuk by the Chen v'Chesed Hashem, not by okhel through which those who were thus occupied were not benefited.
10We have a Mizbe'ach from which those who serve the Mishkan have no right to eat.
11For the zevakhim whose dahm is brought into the Kodesh HaKodashim by the Kohen Gadol as a Kapparat HaChet are burned outside the makhaneh (camp).
12Therefore, Yehoshua also, that he might make the Am Brit kedoshim through his own dahm, suffered outside the sha'ar.
13So then, let us go out to him outside the makhaneh, bearing the reproach of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.
14For we do not have here a lasting Ir HaKodesh, but we seek one to come.
15By him, therefore, let us offer up a zevach todah to Hashem continually, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving hoda'ah (confession) to SHMO (HIS NAME).#13:15 Zech 6:11-12; 3:8
16But do not drift away from ma'asim tovim and sharing; for with such zevakhim Hashem is well pleased.
17Obey your manhigim and submit to them; for they are being shomer over your neshamot, as those who have achraius (answerability, accountability) [to Hashem]. Let them do so with simcha and not with agmat nefesh, for that would not be profitable for you.
18Daven tefillos for us, for we are persuaded that we have a clear matzpun (conscience) in everything, wishing to conduct ourselves commendably in all things.
19And I urge you all the more to do this, that I may be restored to you more quickly.
20Now the Elohei Hashalom, who brought up in the Techiyas HaMoshiach, HaRo'eh HaTzon HaGadol, through the Dahm Brit Olam, even Adoneinu,
21May He equip you with every ma'aseh tov in order to do His ratzon, working in us that which is well pleasing in His sight through Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua, to whom be kavod l'Olemei Olamim. Omein.
22Now I urge you, Achim b'Moshiach, bear with this dvar hachizzuk, for indeed an iggeret I have written you bekitzur (briefly, concisely).
23Have da'as that our Ach b'Moshiach Timotiyos has been released, with whom if he comes shortly, I will see you.
24Shalom greetings to all your manhigim and all the kedoshim. The ones from Italy send shalom greetings to you.
25Chen v'Chesed Hashem be with all of you.
