1Keep on loving one another as brothers and sisters.

1Keep on loving each other as brothers and sisters.

2Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.

2Don’t forget to show hospitality to strangers, for some who have done this have entertained angels without realizing it!

3Continue 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.

3Remember those in prison, as if you were there yourself. Remember also those being mistreated, as if you felt their pain in your own bodies.

4Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.

4Give honor to marriage, and remain faithful to one another in marriage. God will surely judge people who are immoral and those who commit adultery.

5Keep 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."

5Don’t love money; be satisfied with what you have. For God has said, “I will never fail you. I will never abandon you.”

6So we say with confidence, "The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?"

6So we can say with confidence, “The LORD is my helper, so I will have no fear. What can mere people do to me?”

7Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith.

7Remember your leaders who taught you the word of God. Think of all the good that has come from their lives, and follow the example of their faith.

8Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

9Do 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.

9So do not be attracted by strange, new ideas. Your strength comes from God’s grace, not from rules about food, which don’t help those who follow them.

10We have an altar from which those who minister at the tabernacle have no right to eat.

10We have an altar from which the priests in the Tabernacle have no right to eat.

11The high priest carries the blood of animals into the Most Holy Place as a sin offering, but the bodies are burned outside the camp.

11Under the old system, the high priest brought the blood of animals into the Holy Place as a sacrifice for sin, and the bodies of the animals were burned outside the camp.

12And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate to make the people holy through his own blood.

12So also Jesus suffered and died outside the city gates to make his people holy by means of his own blood.

13Let us, then, go to him outside the camp, bearing the disgrace he bore.

13So let us go out to him, outside the camp, and bear the disgrace he bore.

14For here we do not have an enduring city, but we are looking for the city that is to come.

14For this world is not our permanent home; we are looking forward to a home yet to come.

15Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise--the fruit of lips that openly profess his name.

15Therefore, let us offer through Jesus a continual sacrifice of praise to God, proclaiming our allegiance to his name.

16And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.

16And don’t forget to do good and to share with those in need. These are the sacrifices that please God.

17Have 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.

17Obey your spiritual leaders, and do what they say. Their work is to watch over your souls, and they are accountable to God. Give them reason to do this with joy and not with sorrow. That would certainly not be for your benefit.

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

18Pray for us, for our conscience is clear and we want to live honorably in everything we do.

19I particularly urge you to pray so that I may be restored to you soon.

19And especially pray that I will be able to come back to you soon.

20Now 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,

20Now may the God of peace— who brought up from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great Shepherd of the sheep, and ratified an eternal covenant with his blood—

21equip 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.

21may he equip you with all you need for doing his will. May he produce in you, through the power of Jesus Christ, every good thing that is pleasing to him. All glory to him forever and ever! Amen.

22Brothers and sisters, I urge you to bear with my word of exhortation, for in fact I have written to you quite briefly.

22I urge you, dear brothers and sisters, to pay attention to what I have written in this brief exhortation.

23I want you to know that our brother Timothy has been released. If he arrives soon, I will come with him to see you.

23I want you to know that our brother Timothy has been released from jail. If he comes here soon, I will bring him with me to see you.

24Greet all your leaders and all the Lord's people. Those from Italy send you their greetings.

24Greet all your leaders and all the believers there. The believers from Italy send you their greetings.

25Grace be with you all.

25May God’s grace be with you all.
