Hebrews 13

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 May fraternal charity remain in you.	1 Let the charity of the brotherhood abide in you.
2 And do not be willing to forget hospitality. For by it, certain persons, without realizing it, have received Angels as guests.	2 And hospitality do not forget; for by this some, being not aware of it, have entertained angels.
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.	3 Remember them that are in bands, as if you were bound with them; and them that labour, as being yourselves also in the body.
4 May marriage be honorable in every way, and may the marriage bed be immaculate. For God will judge fornicators and adulterers.	4 Marriage honourable in all, and the bed undefiled. For fornicators and adulterers God will judge.
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.”	5 Let your manners be without covetousness, contented with such things as you have; for he hath said: I will not leave thee, neither will I forsake thee.
6 So then, we may confidently say, “The Lord is my helper. I will not fear what man can do to me.”	6 So that we may confidently say: The Lord is my helper: I will not fear what man shall do to me.
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:	7 Remember your prelates who have spoken the word of God to you; whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation,
8 Jesus Christ, yesterday and today; Jesus Christ forever.	8 Jesus Christ, yesterday, and to day; and the same for ever.
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.	9 Be not led away with various and strange doctrines. For it is best that the heart be established with grace, not with meats; which have not profited those that walk in them.
10 We have an altar: those who serve in the tabernacle have no authority to eat from it.	10 We have an altar, whereof they have no power to eat who serve the tabernacle.
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.	11 For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the holies by the high priest for sin, are burned without the camp.
12 Because of this, Jesus, too, in order to sanctify the people by his own blood, suffered outside the gate.	12 Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people by his own blood, suffered without the gate.
13 And so, let us go forth to him, outside the camp, bearing his reproach.	13 Let us go forth therefore to him without the camp, bearing his reproach.
14 For in this place, we have no everlasting city; instead, we seek one in the future.	14 For we have not here a lasting city, but we seek one that is to come.
15 Therefore, through him, let us offer the sacrifice of continual praise to God, which is the fruit of lips confessing his name.	15 By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise always to God, that is to say, the fruit of lips confessing to his name.
16 But do not be willing to forget good works and fellowship. For God is deserving of such sacrifices.	16 And do not forget to do good, and to impart; for by such sacrifices God's favour is obtained.
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.	17 Obey your prelates, and be subject to them. For they watch as being to render an account of your souls; that they may do this with joy, and not with grief. For this is not expedient for you.
18 Pray for us. For we trust that we have a good conscience, being willing to conduct ourselves well in all things.	18 Pray for us. For we trust we have a good conscience, being willing to behave ourselves well in all things.
19 And I beg you, all the more, to do this, so that I may be quickly returned to you.	19 And I beseech you the more to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.
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,	20 And may the God of peace, who brought again from the dead the great pastor of the sheep, our Lord Jesus Christ, in the blood of the everlasting testament,
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.	21 Fit you in all goodness, that you may do his will; doing in you that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom is glory for ever and ever. Amen.
22 And I beg you, brothers, that you may permit this word of consolation, especially since I have written to you with few words.	22 And I beseech you, brethren, that you suffer this word of consolation. For I have written to you in a few words.
23 Know that our brother Timothy has been set free. If he arrives soon, then I will see you with him.	23 Know ye that our brother Timothy is set at liberty: with whom (if he come shortly) I will see you.
24 Greet all your leaders and all the saints. The brothers from Italy greet you.	24 Salute all your prelates, and all the saints. The brethren from Italy salute you.
25 Grace be with you all. Amen.	25 Grace be with you all. Amen.
