New Testament

Hebrews 13:12-18 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

12. Because of this, Jesus, too, in order to sanctify the people by his own blood, suffered outside the gate.

13. And so, let us go forth to him, outside the camp, bearing his reproach.

14. For in this place, we have no everlasting city; instead, we seek one in the future.

15. Therefore, through him, let us offer the sacrifice of continual praise to God, which is the fruit of lips confessing his name.

16. But do not be willing to forget good works and fellowship. For God is deserving of such sacrifices.

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. Pray for us. For we trust that we have a good conscience, being willing to conduct ourselves well in all things.
