17 Have Confidence in your Leaders
And Submit to their Authority,
Because they Keep Watch over you
As those who must Give Account.
Do this so that their Work will be a Joy,
Not a Burden,
For that would be of No Benefit to you.
18 Pray for us.
We are sure that we have a Clear Conscience
And Desire to Live Honorably in Every Way.
19 I Particularly Urge you to Pray
So that I may be Restored to you Soon.
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,
21 Equip you with Everything Good
For Doing His Will,
And may He Work in us
What is Pleasing to Him,
Through Jesus Christ,
To Whom be Glory for Ever and Ever.
Amen.
(Hebrews 13:17-21, NIV)
