STUTTGARTENSIA-DELITZSCH	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 אַהֲבַת הָאַחִים תַּעֲמֹד	1 May fraternal charity remain in you.
2 הַכְנָסַת אֹרְחִים אַל־תִּשְׁכָּחוּ כִּי־יֵשׁ אֲשֶׁר הִכְנִיסוּ־בָהּ מַלְאָכִים וְלֹא יָדָעוּ	2 And do not be willing to forget hospitality. For by it, certain persons, without realizing it, have received Angels as guests.
3 זִכְרוּ אֶת־הָאֲסוּרִים כְּאִלּוּ אַתֶּם אֲסוּרִים עִמָּהֶם וְאֵת הַנִּלְחָצִים בַּאֲשֶׁר גַּם־אַתֶּם בַּבָּשָׂר	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 הָאִישׁוּת תִּיקַר בַּכֹּל וְעֶרֶשׂ יְצוּעֲכֶם אַל־יְחֻלָּל אֶת־הַזֹּנִים וְאֶת־הַמְנָאֲפִים יָדִין אֱלֹהִים	4 May marriage be honorable in every way, and may the marriage bed be immaculate. For God will judge fornicators and adulterers.
5 רַחֲקוּ מֵאַהֲבַת כֶּסֶף וְשִׂמְחוּ בְחֶלְקְכֶם כִּי הוּא אָמַר לֹא אַרְפְּךָ וְלֹא אֶעֶזְבֶךָּ	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 עַל־כֵּן נִבְטַח וְנֹאמַר יְהוָֹה לִי בְּעֹזְרָי לֹא אִירָא מַה־יַּעֲשֶׂה לִי אָדָם	6 So then, we may confidently say, “The Lord is my helper. I will not fear what man can do to me.”
7 זִכְרוּ אֶת־מַנְהִיגֵיכֶם אֲשֶׁר־הִגִּידוּ לָכֶם אֶת־דְּבַר הָאֱלֹהִים בִּינוּ לְאַחֲרִית דַּרְכָּם וּלְכוּ בֶּאֱמוּנָתָם	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 יֵשׁוּעַ הַמָּשִׁיחַ גַּם־תְּמוֹל גַּם־הַיּוֹם הוּא הוּא וְגַם־לְעוֹלָמִים	8 Jesus Christ, yesterday and today; Jesus Christ forever.
9 אַל־תִּנּוֹעוּ בְּתוֹרוֹת שֹׁנוֹת וְזָרוֹת כִּי טוֹב לְכוֹנֵן לִבֵּנוּ בַּחֶסֶד וְלֹא בְּעִנְיְנֵי מַאֲכָל אֲשֶׁר לֹא הוֹעִילוּ לַמִּתְהַלְּכִים בָּהֶם	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 יֶשׁ־לָנוּ מִזְבֵּחַ אֲשֶׁר אֵינָם רַשָּׁאִים לֶאֱכֹל מֵעָלָיו מְשָׁרְתֵי הַמִּשְׁכָּן	10 We have an altar: those who serve in the tabernacle have no authority to eat from it.
11 כִּי־הַבְּהֵמוֹת אֲשֶׁר הוּבָא דָמָן בַּקֹּדֶשׁ לְכַפָּרַת הַחֵטְא עַל־יְדֵי הַכֹּהֵן הַגָּדוֹל גְּוִיּוֹתֵיהֶן נִשְׂרְפוּ מִחוּץ לַמַּחֲנֶה	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 בַּעֲבוּר זֹאת גַּם־יֵשׁוּעַ לְמַעַן קַדֵּשׁ בְּדָמוֹ אֶת־הָעָם עֻנָּה מִחוּץ לַשָּׁעַר	12 Because of this, Jesus, too, in order to sanctify the people by his own blood, suffered outside the gate.
13 לָכֵן נֵצְאָה־נָּא אֵלָיו אֶל־מִחוּץ לַמַּחֲנֶה וְנִשָּׂא אֶת־חֶרְפָּתוֹ	13 And so, let us go forth to him, outside the camp, bearing his reproach.
14 כִּי־פֹה אֵין־לָנוּ עִיר עֹמָדֶת כִּי אֶת־הָעֲתִידָה אֲנַחְנוּ מְבַקְשִׁים	14 For in this place, we have no everlasting city; instead, we seek one in the future.
15 לָכֵן נַקְרִיב עַל־יָדוֹ בְּכָל־עֵת זֶבַח תּוֹדָה לֵאלֹהִים הִיא־פְרִי שְׂפָתַיִם הַמּוֹדוֹת לִשְׁמוֹ	15 Therefore, through him, let us offer the sacrifice of continual praise to God, which is the fruit of lips confessing his name.
16 וְאַל־תִּשְׁכְּחוּ לִגְמֹל חֶסֶד וְלָתֵת לָאֶבְיוֹנִים כִּי־זְבָחִים כָּאֵלֶּה יֶעֶרְבוּ לֵאלֹהִים	16 But do not be willing to forget good works and fellowship. For God is deserving of such sacrifices.
17 שִׁמְעוּ אֶל־מַנְהִיגֵיכֶם וְהִכָּנְעוּ מִפְּנֵיהֶם כִּי־שֹׁקְדִים הֵם עַל־נַפְשֹׁתֵיכֶם כַּעֲתִידִים לָתֵת חֶשְׁבּוֹן לְמַעַן יַעֲשֹוּ־זֹאת בְּשִׂמְחָה וְלֹא בַאֲנָחָה כִּי זֹאת לֹא־לְהוֹעִיל לָכֶם	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 הִתְפַּלְלוּ בַּעֲדֵנוּ כִּי יָדַעְנוּ אֲשֶׁר שְׁלֵמָה מַחֲשַׁבְתֵּנוּ וְנַחְפֹּץ לָלֶכֶת דֶּרֶךְ יְשָׁרָה בַּכֹּל	18 Pray for us. For we trust that we have a good conscience, being willing to conduct ourselves well in all things.
19 וּבְחָזְקָה אֲבַקֵּשׁ מִכֶּם לַעֲשׂוֹת זֹאת לְמַעַן אוּשַׁב אֲלֵיכֶם בִּמְהֵרָה	19 And I beg you, all the more, to do this, so that I may be quickly returned to you.
20 וֵאלֹהֵי הַשָּׁלוֹם אֲשֶׁר בְּדַם בְּרִית עוֹלָם הֶעֱלָה מִן־הַמֵּתִים אֶת־רֹעֵה הַצֹּאן הַגָּדוֹל אֶת־יֵשׁוּעַ אֲדֹנֵינוּ	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 הוּא יַשְׁלִימְכֶם בְּכָל־מַעֲשֶׂה טוֹב לַעֲשׂוֹת רְצוֹנוֹ בְּפָעֳלוֹ בָכֶם אֶת־הָרָצוּי לְפָנָיו בְּיַד־יֵשׁוּעַ הַמָּשִׁיחַ אֲשֶׁר־לוֹ הַכָּבוֹד לְעוֹלְמֵי עוֹלָמִים אָמֵן	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 וַאֲבַקֵּשׁ מִכֶּם אַחַי שְׂאוּ־נָא דְּבַר הַתּוֹכֵחָה כִּי כָתַבְתִּי אֲלֵיכֶם בִּקְצָרָה	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 וּדְעוּ כִּי טִימוֹתִיּוֹס אָחִינוּ יָצָא מִבֵּית הָאֲסוּרִים וְהָיָה אִם־יָבֹא בִמְהֵרָה אֶרְאֶה אִתּוֹ אֶת־פְּנֵיכֶם	23 Know that our brother Timothy has been set free. If he arrives soon, then I will see you with him.
24 שַׁאֲלוּ לִשְׁלוֹם כָּל־מַנְהִיגֵיכֶם וְלִשְׁלוֹם כָּל־הַקְּדשִׁים בְּנֵי אֶרֶץ אִיטַלְיָא שֹׁאֲלִים לִשְׁלוֹמְכֶם	24 Greet all your leaders and all the saints. The brothers from Italy greet you.
25 הַחֶסֶד עִם־כֻּלְּכֶם אָמֵן	25 Grace be with you all. Amen.
