Hebrews 13:16-21

English Standard Version

¹⁶Do not neglect to do good and ^(A)to share what you have, for such ^(B)sacrifices are pleasing to God.

¹⁷Obey ^(C)your leaders and submit to them, ^(D)for they are keeping watch over your souls, as those who will have to ^(E)give an account. ^(F)Let them do this with joy and not with groaning, for that would be of no advantage to you.

¹⁸^(G)Pray for us, for we are sure that we have a clear conscience, desiring to act honorably in all things. ¹⁹I urge you the more earnestly to do this in order ^(H)that I may be restored to you the sooner.

Benediction

²⁰Now ^(I)may the God of peace ^(J)who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, ^(K)the great shepherd of the sheep, by ^(L)the blood of the eternal covenant, ²¹^(M)equip you with everything good that you may do his will, ^(N)working in us^[a] that which is pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, ^(O)to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.
