Hebrews 13

1 Continue in brotherly love.

1 你們務要常存弟兄相愛的心。

2 Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it.

2 不可忘記用愛心接待客旅；因為曾有接待客旅的，不知不覺就接待了天使。

3 Remember those in prison as if you were bound with them, and those who are mistreated as if you were suffering with them.

3 你們要記念被捆綁的人，好像與他們同受捆綁；也要記念遭苦害的人，想到自己也在肉身之內。

4 Marriage should be honored by all and the marriage bed kept undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers.

4 婚姻，人人都當尊重，床也不可污穢；因為苟合行淫的人，上帝必要審判。

5 Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, for God has said: “Never will I leave you, never will I forsake you.”

5 你們存心不可貪愛錢財，要以自己所有的為足；因為主曾說：「我總不撇下你，也不丟棄你。」

6 So we say with confidence: “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?”

6 所以我們可以放膽說： 主是幫助我的，我必不懼怕； 人能把我怎麼樣呢？

7 Remember your leaders who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith.

7 從前引導你們、傳上帝之道給你們的人，你們要想念他們，效法他們的信心，留心看他們為人的結局。

8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

8 耶穌基督昨日、今日、一直到永遠，是一樣的。

9 Do not be carried away by all kinds of strange teachings, for it is good for the heart to be strengthened by grace and not by foods of no value to those devoted to them.

9 你們不要被那諸般怪異的教訓勾引了去；因為人心靠恩得堅固才是好的，並不是靠飲食。那在飲食上專心的從來沒有得着益處。

10 We have an altar from which those who serve at the tabernacle have no right to eat.

10 我們有一祭壇，上面的祭物是那些在帳幕中供職的人不可同吃的。

11 Although the high priest brings the blood of animals into the Holy Place as a sacrifice for sin, the bodies are burned outside the camp.

11 原來牲畜的血被大祭司帶入聖所作贖罪祭；牲畜的身子被燒在營外。

12 And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate, to sanctify the people by His own blood.

12 所以，耶穌要用自己的血叫百姓成聖，也就在城門外受苦。

13 Therefore let us go to Him outside the camp, bearing the disgrace He bore.

13 這樣，我們也當出到營外，就了他去，忍受他所受的凌辱。

14 For here we do not have a permanent city, but we are looking for the city that is to come.

14 我們在這裏本沒有常存的城，乃是尋求那將來的城。

15 Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise, the fruit of lips that confess His name.

15 我們應當靠着耶穌，常常以頌讚為祭獻給上帝，這就是那承認主名之人嘴唇的果子。

16 And do not neglect to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.

16 只是不可忘記行善和捐輸的事，因為這樣的祭是上帝所喜悅的。

17 Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they watch over your souls as those who must give an account. To this end, allow them to lead with joy and not with grief, for that would be of no advantage to you.

17 你們要依從那些引導你們的，且要順服；因他們為你們的靈魂時刻警醒，好像那將來交帳的人。你們要使他們交的時候有快樂，不致憂愁；若憂愁就與你們無益了。

18 Pray for us; we are convinced that we have a clear conscience and desire to live honorably in every way.

18 請你們為我們禱告，因我們自覺良心無虧，願意凡事按正道而行。

19 And I especially urge you to pray that I may be restored to you soon.

19 我更求你們為我禱告，使我快些回到你們那裏去。

20 Now may the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep,

20 但願賜平安的上帝，就是那憑永約之血、使群羊的大牧人－我主耶穌從死裏復活的上帝，

21 equip you with every good thing to do His will. And may He accomplish in us what is pleasing in His sight through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.

21 在各樣善事上成全你們，叫你們遵行他的旨意；又藉着耶穌基督在你們心裏行他所喜悅的事。願榮耀歸給他，直到永永遠遠。阿們！

22 I urge you, brothers, to bear with my word of exhortation, for I have only written to you briefly.

22 弟兄們，我略略寫信給你們，望你們聽我勸勉的話。

23 Be aware that our brother Timothy has been released. If he arrives soon, I will come with him to see you.

23 你們該知道，我們的兄弟提摩太已經釋放了；他若快來，我必同他去見你們。

24 Greet all your leaders and all the saints. Those from Italy send you greetings.

24 請你們問引導你們的諸位和眾聖徒安。從意大利來的人也問你們安。

25 Grace be with all of you.

25 願恩惠常與你們眾人同在。阿們！
