希伯來書

第十三章

教導信徒該作的事
1 你們總要保持弟兄的愛。
2 不要忘了用愛心接待人，有人就是這樣作，在無意中就款待了天使。
3 你們要記念那些被囚禁的人，好像跟他們一起被囚禁；也要記念那些受虐待的人，好像你們也親自受過。
4 人人都應該尊重婚姻，婚床也不要玷污，因為　神一定審判淫亂的和姦淫的人。
5 你們為人不要貪愛錢財，要以現在所有的為滿足；因為　神親自說過：“我決不撇下你，也不離棄你。”
6 所以我們可以放膽說：“主是我的幫助，我決不害怕，人能把我怎麼樣呢？”
7 你們要記念那些領導過你們，把　神的道傳給你們的人；你們要觀察他們一生的成果，要效法他們的信心。
8 耶穌基督昨天、今天、一直到永遠都是一樣的。
9 你們不要被各樣怪異的教訓勾引去了。人心靠着恩典，而不是靠着食物得到堅定，才是好的；因為那些拘守食物的人，從來沒有得過益處。
10 我們有一座祭壇，壇上的祭物，是那些在會幕中供職的人沒有權利吃的。
11 那些祭牲的血，由大祭司帶進聖所作贖罪祭，祭牲的身體卻要在營外焚燒。
12 所以耶穌也是這樣在城門外受苦，為的是要借着自己的血使人民成聖。
13 那麼，讓我們也出到營外到他那裡去，擔當他的凌辱。
14 因為在這裡我們沒有長存的城，我們卻是尋求那將要來的城。
15 所以，我們要借着耶穌，常常把頌讚的祭品獻給　神，這就是承認他的名的人嘴唇的果子。
16 你們也不要忘記行善和捐輸，這樣的祭是　神所喜悅的。
17 你們要聽從那些領導你們的人，也要順服他們；因為他們為你們的靈魂警醒，好像要交帳的人一樣。你們要使他們交帳的時候快快樂樂，不至於嘆息；如果他們嘆息，對你們就沒有好處了。
18 請為我們禱告，因為我們深信自己良心無虧，願意凡事遵行正道。
19 我更加要求你們為我們禱告，好使我們能夠快點回到你們那裡去。

祝福和問安
20 願賜平安的　神，就是那憑着永約的血，把群羊的大牧人我們的主耶穌，從死人中領出來的那一位，
21 在一切善事上成全你們，好使你們遵行他的旨意；又借着耶穌基督在我們裡面，行他所喜悅的事。願榮耀歸給他，直到永永遠遠。阿們。
22 弟兄們，我勸你們耐心接受我這勸勉的話，因為我只是簡略地寫給你們。
23 你們要知道，我們的弟兄提摩太已經釋放了；如果他來得早，我就跟他一起去看你們。
24 請問候所有領導你們的人和所有聖徒。從意大利來的人也問候你們。
25 願恩惠與你們眾人同在。

NIV:

1 Keep on loving each other as brothers.
2 Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it.
3 Remember those in prison as if you were their fellow prisoners, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering.
4 Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.
5 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 we say with confidence, "The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?"
7 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 and forever.
9 Do not be carried away by all kinds of strange teachings. It is good for our hearts to be strengthened by grace, not by ceremonial foods, which are of no value to those who eat them.
10 We have an altar from which those who minister at the tabernacle have no right to eat.
11 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 And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate to make the people holy through his own blood.
13 Let us, then, go to him outside the camp, bearing the disgrace he bore.
14 For here we do not have an enduring city, but we are looking for the city that is to come.
15 Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise--the fruit of lips that confess his name.
16 And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.
17 Obey your leaders and ???? to their authority. They keep watch over you as men who must give an account. Obey them so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no advantage to you.
18 Pray for us. We are sure that we have a clear conscience and desire to live honorably in every way.
19 I particularly urge you to pray so that I may be restored to you soon.
20 May the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep,
21 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 Brothers, I urge you to bear with my word of exhortation, for I have written you only a short letter.
23 I want you to know that our brother Timothy has been released. If he arrives soon, I will come with him to see you.
24 Greet all your leaders and all God's people. Those from Italy send you their greetings.
25 Grace be with you all.
