1 Let love of the brethren continue. Let brotherly love continue. Keep on loving one another as brothers and sisters.
2 Forget not to shew love unto strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares. Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares. Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.
3 Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; them that are evil entreated, as being yourselves also in the body. Remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them, and those who are mistreated, since you also are in the body. Continue to remember those in prison as if you were together with them in prison, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering.
4 Let marriage be had in honour among all, and let the bed be undefiled: for fornicators and adulterers God will judge. Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous. Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.
5 Be ye free from the love of money; content with such things as ye have: for himself hath said, I will in no wise fail thee, neither will I in any wise forsake thee. Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.”
6 So that with good courage we say, The Lord is my helper; I will not fear: What shall man do unto me? So we can confidently say, “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear; what can man do to me?” So we say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?”
7 Remember them that had the rule over you, which spake unto you the word of God; and considering the issue of their life, imitate their faith. Remember your leaders, those who spoke to you the word of God. Consider the outcome of their way of life, and imitate their faith. Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith.
8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today, yea and for ever. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.
9 Be not carried away by divers and strange teachings: for it is good that the heart be stablished by grace; not by meats, wherein they that occupied themselves were not profited. Do not be led away by diverse and strange teachings, for it is good for the heart to be strengthened by grace, not by foods, which have not benefited those devoted to them. Do not be carried away by all kinds of strange teachings. It is good for our hearts to be strengthened by grace, not by eating ceremonial foods, which is of no benefit to those who do so.
10 We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat which serve the tabernacle. We have an altar from which those who serve the tent have no right to eat. We have an altar from which those who minister at the tabernacle have no right to eat.
11 For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the holy place by the high priest as an offering for sin, are burned without the camp. For the bodies of those animals whose blood is brought into the holy places by the high priest as a sacrifice for sin are burned outside the camp. The high priest carries the blood of animals into the Most Holy Place as a sin offering, but the bodies are burned outside the camp.
12 Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people through his own blood, suffered without the gate. So Jesus also suffered outside the gate in order to sanctify the people through his own blood. And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate to make the people holy through his own blood.
13 Let us therefore go forth unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach. Therefore let us go to him outside the camp and bear the reproach he endured. Let us, then, go to him outside the camp, bearing the disgrace he bore.
14 For we have not here an abiding city, but we seek after the city which is to come. For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is to come. For here we do not have an enduring city, but we are looking for the city that is to come.
15 Through him then let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips which make confession to his name. Through him then let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name. Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise—the fruit of lips that openly profess his name.
16 But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God. And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.
17 Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit to them: for they watch in behalf of your souls, as they that shall give account; that they may do this with joy, and not with grief: for this were unprofitable for you. Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they are keeping watch over your souls, as those who will have to give an account. Let them do this with joy and not with groaning, for that would be of no advantage to you. Have confidence in your leaders and submit to their authority, because they keep watch over you as those who must give an account. Do this so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no benefit to you.
18 Pray for us: for we are persuaded that we have a good conscience, desiring to live honestly in all things.

We are sure that we have a clear conscience and desire to live honorably in every way.

Amen. equip you with everything good for doing his will, and may he work in us what is pleasing to him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
22 But I exhort you, brethren, bear with the word of exhortation: for I have written unto you in few words. I appeal to you, brothers, bear with my word of exhortation, for I have written to you briefly. Brothers and sisters, I urge you to bear with my word of exhortation, for in fact I have written to you quite briefly.
23 Know ye that our brother Timothy hath been set at liberty; with whom, if he come shortly, I will see you.

If he arrives soon, I will come with him to see you.
