Hebrews 13:10–19

10 We have an altar afrom which those bwho serve the 1tabernacle have no right to eat.

11 For athe bodies of those animals whose blood is brought into the holy place by the high priest as an offering for sin, are burned outside the camp.

12 Therefore Jesus also, athat He might sanctify the people bthrough His own blood, suffered coutside the gate.

13 So, let us go out to Him outside the camp, abearing His reproach.

14 For here awe do not have a lasting city, but we are seeking bthe city which is to come.

God-pleasing Sacrifices

15 aThrough Him then, let us continually offer up a bsacrifice of praise to God, that is, cthe fruit of lips that 1give thanks to His name.

16 And do not neglect doing good and asharing, for bwith such sacrifices God is pleased.

17 aObey your leaders and submit to them, for bthey keep watch over your souls as those who will give an account. 1Let them do this with joy and not 2with grief, for this would be unprofitable for you.

18 aPray for us, for we are sure that we have a bgood conscience, desiring to conduct ourselves honorably in all things.

19 And I urge you all the more to do this, aso that I may be restored to you the sooner.
