Hebrews 13:15-25 ▼

15 Therefore, through him let us always bring God a sacrifice of praise, that is, the fruit of our lips that confess his name.

16 Do not neglect to do good and to be generous, for God is pleased with such sacrifices.

17 Continue to follow and be submissive to your leaders, since they are watching over your souls as those who will have to give a word of explanation. By doing this, you will be letting them carry out their duties joyfully, and not with grief, for that would be harmful for you.

18 Pray for us, for we are sure that we have a clear conscience and desire to live honorably in every way.

19 I especially ask you to do this so that I may be brought back to you sooner.

20 Now may the God of peace, who by the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, the Great Shepherd of the sheep,

21 equip you with everything good to do his will, accomplishing in us what pleases him through Jesus, the Messiah. To him be glory forever and ever! Amen.

22 I urge you, brothers, to listen patiently to my encouraging message, for I have written you a short letter.

23 You should know that our brother Timothy has been set free. If he comes soon, he will be with me when I see you.

24 Greet all your leaders and all the saints. Those who are from Italy greet you.

25 May grace be with all of you!
