Hebrews 13:16

Concluding Ethical Instructions

¹⁵ For by him offer we the sacrifice of praise always to God: that is to say, the fruit of those lips, which confess his name. ¹⁶ To do good, and to distribute, forget not: for with such sacrifices God is pleased. ¹⁷ Obey them that have the oversight of you, and submit yourselves to them, for they watch for your souls, even as they that must give accounts for them: that they may do it with joy, and not with grief. For that is an unprofitable thing for you.
