Hebrews 13:16 Context
14For here haue we no continuing citie, but we seeke one to come. 15By him therefore let vs offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lippes, giuing thankes to his Name. 16But to doe good, and to communicate forget not, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. 17Obey them that haue the rule ouer you, and submit your selues: for they watch for your soules, as they that must giue account, that they may doe it with ioy, and not with griefe: for that is vnprofitable for you. 18Pray for vs: for we trust wee haue a good conscience in all things, willing to liue honestly.
