Hebrews 11
11Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.G1161G4102G2076G5287G1679G1650G4229G3756G9912For by it the elders obtained a good report.G1063G1722G5026G4245G31403Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.G4102G3539G165G2675G4487G2316G1519G3588G991G1096G3361G1096G1537G53164By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.G4102G6G4374G2316G4119G2378G3844G2535G1223G3739G3140G1511G1342G2316G3140G1909G846G1435G2532G1223G846G599G2089G2980G29805By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.G4102G1802G3346G1492G3361G1492G2288G2532G2147G3756G2147G1360G2316G3346G846G1063G4253G846G3331G3140G2100G23166But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.G1161G5565G4102G102G2100G1063G4334G2316G1163G4100G3754G2076G2532G1096G3406G1567G8467By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.G4102G3575G5537G4012G3369G991G3369G2125G2680G2787G1519G4991G846G3624G1223G3739G2632G2889G2532G1096G2818G1343G2596G41028By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.G4102G11G2564G1831G1519G5117G3739G3195G2983G1519G2817G5219G2532G1831G3361G1987G4226G20649By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:G4102G3939G1519G1093G1860G5613G245G2730G1722G4633G3326G2464G2532G2384G4789G846G186010For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.G1063G1551G4172G2192G2310G3739G5079G2532G1217G231611Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised.G4102G2532G4564G846G2983G1411G1519G2602G4690G2532G5088G3844G2540G2244G1893G2233G4103G186112Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.G1352G1080G2532G575G1520G2532G5023G3499G2531G798G3772G4128G2532G5616G285G3588G3844G2281G5491G38213These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.G3778G3956G599G2596G4102G3361G2983G1860G235G1492G846G4207G2532G3982G2532G782G2532G3670G3754G1526G3581G2532G3927G1909G109314For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country.G1063G3004G5108G1718G3754G1934G396815And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned.G2532G3303G1487G3421G1565G575G3739G1831G302G2192G2540G34416But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.G1161G3570G3713G2909G5123G2032G1352G2316G1870G3756G1870G846G1941G846G2316G1063G2090G846G417217By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son,G4102G11G3985G4374G2464G2532G324G1860G4374G343918Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called:G4314G3739G2980G3754G1722G2464G2564G4671G4690G256419Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.G3049G3754G2316G1415G1453G2532G1537G3498G3606G2532G2865G846G1722G385020By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.G4102G2464G2127G2384G2532G2269G4012G319521By faith Jacob, when he was a dying, blessed both the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff.G4102G2384G599G2127G1538G5207G2501G2532G4352G1909G206G846G446422By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones.G4102G2501G5053G3421G4012G1841G5207G2474G2532G1781G4012G846G374723By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months of his parents, because they saw he was a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king's commandment.G4102G3475G1080G2928G5150G5259G846G3962G1360G1492G791G3813G2532G5399G3756G5399G935G129724By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter;G4102G3475G1096G3173G720G3004G5207G5328G236425Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;G138G3123G4778G2992G2316G2228G2192G619G266G434026Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.G2233G3680G5547G3187G4149G2233G2344G1722G125G1063G578G1519G340527By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.G4102G2641G125G3361G5399G2372G935G1063G2594G5613G3708G51728Through faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them.G4102G4160G3957G2532G4378G129G3363G3645G4416G2345G84629By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the Egyptians assaying to do were drowned.G4102G1224G2063G2281G5613G1223G3584G3739G124G3984G2983G266630By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they were compassed about seven days.G4102G5038G2410G4098G2944G1909G2033G225031By faith the harlot Rahab perished not with them that believed not, when she had received the spies with peace.G4102G4204G4460G4881G3756G544G1209G2685G3326G151532And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets:G2532G5101G3004G2089G3004G1063G5550G1952G3165G1334G4012G1066G5037G913G2532G4546G2532G2422G1138G2532G5037G4545G2532G439633Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions.G3739G1223G4102G2610G932G2038G1343G2013G1860G5420G4750G302334Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens.G4570G1411G4442G5343G4750G3162G575G769G1743G1096G2478G1722G4171G2827G3925G24535Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:G1135G2983G846G3498G1537G386G1161G243G5178G3756G4327G629G2443G5177G2909G38636And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment:G1161G2087G2983G3984G1701G2532G3148G1161G2089G1199G2532G543837They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented;G3034G4249G3985G599G1722G5408G3162G4022G1722G3374G1722G122G1192G5302G2346G255838(Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.G3739G2889G2258G3756G514G4105G1722G2047G2532G3735G2532G4693G2532G3692G109339And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise:G2532G3778G3956G3140G1223G4102G2865G3756G186040God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.G2316G4265G5100G2909G5100G4012G2257G3363G5048G5565G2257G5048G3363G5048
