Hebrews 13:14

Hebrews 13:14

12 Therefore Jesus also, that He might¹ sanctify the people with His own blood, suffered outside the gate.

13 Therefore let us go forth to Him, outside the camp, bearing ^aHis reproach.

14 For here we have no continuing city, but we seek the one to come.

15 ^aTherefore by Him let us continually offer ^bthe sacrifice of praise to God, that is, ^cthe fruit of our lips, giving thanks to His name.

16 ^aBut do not forget to do good and to share, for ^bwith such sacrifices God is well pleased.

17 ^aObey those who¹ rule over you, and be submissive, for ^bthey watch out for your souls, as those who must give account. Let them do so with joy and not with grief, for that would be unprofitable for you.

Prayer Requested

18 ^aPray for us; for we are confident that we have ^ba good conscience, in all things desiring to live honorably.

Hebrews 13:15 >>

Hebrews 13:14 For here have we no continuing city. The temple itself, and Jerusalem the city of their race, were about to be destroyed. They were all pilgrims seeking a city as their fathers did (Hebrews 11:13-16). But we seek one to come. They should then go forth like their fathers.
