Hebrews 13:16-18
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
16 And do not be forgetting good-doing and sharing. For with such sacrifices God is pleased.
Yield To Your Leaders
17 Be obeying[a] the ones leading you and be yielding[b], for they are keeping-watch for your souls as ones who will render an account— in order that they may be doing this with joy, and not while groaning, for this would be unprofitable for you.
Pray For Us
18 Be praying for us. For we are persuaded that we have a good conscience, wanting to conduct-ourselves well[c] in all[d] things.

Hebrews 13:16-18
New International Version
16 And do not forget to do good and to share with others,(A) for with such sacrifices(B) God is pleased.
17 Have confidence in your leaders(C) and submit to their authority, because they keep watch over you(D) as those who must give an 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.(E) We are sure that we have a clear conscience(F) and desire to live honorably in every way.
