By Faith

11Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.G1161G4102G2076G5287G1679G1650G4229G3756G991 2For by it the people of old received their commendation.G1063G1722G5026G4245G3140 3By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible.G4102G3539G165G2675G4487G2316G1519G3588G991G1096G3361G1096G1537G5316 4By faith Abel offered to God a more acceptable sacrifice than Cain, through which he was commended as righteous, God commending him by accepting his gifts. And through his faith, though he died, he still speaks.G4102G6G4374G2316G4119G2378G3844G2535G1223G3739G3140G1511G1342G2316G3140G1909G846G1435G2532G1223G846G599G2089G2980G2980 5By faith Enoch was taken up so that he should not see death, and he was not found, because God had taken him. Now before he was taken he was commended as having pleased God.G4102G1802G3346G1492G3361G1492G2288G2532G2147G3756G2147G1360G2316G3346G846G1063G4253G846G3331G3140G2100G2316 6And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.G1161G5565G4102G102G2100G1063G4334G2316G1163G4100G3754G2076G2532G1096G3406G1567G846 7By faith Noah, being warned by God concerning events as yet unseen, in reverent fear constructed an ark for the saving of his household. By this he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness that comes by faith.G4102G3575G5537G4012G3369G991G3369G2125G2680G2787G1519G4991G846G3624G1223G3739G2632G2889G2532G1096G2818G1343G2596G4102 8By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to a place that he was to receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.G4102G11G2564G1831G1519G5117G3739G3195G2983G1519G2817G5219G2532G1831G3361G1987G4226G2064 9By faith he went to live in the land of promise, as in a foreign land, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, heirs with him of the same promise.G4102G3939G1519G1093G1860G5613G245G2730G1722G4633G3326G2464G2532G2384G4789G846G1860 10For he was looking forward to the city that has foundations, whose designer and builder is God.G1063G1551G4172G2192G2310G3739G5079G2532G1217G2316 11By faith Sarah herself received power to conceive, even when she was past the age, since she considered him faithful who had promised.G4102G2532G4564G846G2983G1411G1519G2602G4690G2532G5088G3844G2540G2244G1893G2233G4103G1861 12Therefore from one man, and him as good as dead, were born descendants as many as the stars of heaven and as many as the innumerable grains of sand by the seashore.G1352G1080G2532G575G1520G2532G5023G3499G2531G798G3772G4128G2532G5616G285G3588G3844G2281G5491G382 13These all died in faith, not having received the things promised, but having seen them and greeted them from afar, and having acknowledged that they were strangers and exiles on the earth.G3778G3956G599G2596G4102G3361G2983G1860G235G1492G846G4207G2532G3982G2532G782G2532G3670G3754G1526G3581G2532G3927G1909G1093 14For people who speak thus make it clear that they are seeking a homeland.G1063G3004G5108G1718G3754G1934G3968 15If they had been thinking of that land from which they had gone out, they would have had opportunity to return.G2532G3303G1487G3421G1565G575G3739G1831G302G2192G2540G344 16But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city.G1161G3570G3713G2909G5123G2032G1352G2316G1870G3756G1870G846G1941G846G2316G1063G2090G846G4172 17By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises was in the act of offering up his only son,G4102G11G3985G4374G2464G2532G324G1860G4374G3439 18of whom it was said, "Through Isaac shall your offspring be named."G4314G3739G2980G3754G1722G2464G2564G4671G4690G2564 19He considered that God was able even to raise him from the dead, from which, figuratively speaking, he did receive him back.G3049G3754G2316G1415G1453G2532G1537G3498G3606G2532G2865G846G1722G3850 20By faith Isaac invoked future blessings on Jacob and Esau.G4102G2464G2127G2384G2532G2269G4012G3195 21By faith Jacob, when dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, bowing in worship over the head of his staff.G4102G2384G599G2127G1538G5207G2501G2532G4352G1909G206G846G4464 22By faith Joseph, at the end of his life, made mention of the exodus of the Israelites and gave directions concerning his bones.G4102G2501G5053G3421G4012G1841G5207G2474G2532G1781G4012G846G3747 23By faith Moses, when he was born, was hidden for three months by his parents, because they saw that the child was beautiful, and they were not afraid of the king's edict.G4102G3475G1080G2928G5150G5259G846G3962G1360G1492G791G3813G2532G5399G3756G5399G935G1297 24By faith Moses, when he was grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter,G4102G3475G1096G3173G720G3004G5207G5328G2364 25choosing rather to be mistreated with the people of God than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin.G138G3123G4778G2992G2316G2228G2192G619G266G4340 26He considered the reproach of Christ greater wealth than the treasures of Egypt, for he was looking to the reward.G2233G3680G5547G3187G4149G2233G2344G1722G125G1063G578G1519G3405 27By faith he left Egypt, not being afraid of the anger of the king, for he endured as seeing him who is invisible.G4102G2641G125G3361G5399G2372G935G1063G2594G5613G3708G517 28By faith he kept the Passover and sprinkled the blood, so that the Destroyer of the firstborn might not touch them.G4102G4160G3957G2532G4378G129G3363G3645G4416G2345G846 29By faith the people crossed the Red Sea as on dry land, but the Egyptians, when they attempted to do the same, were drowned.G4102G1224G2063G2281G5613G1223G3584G3739G124G3984G2983G2666 30By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they had been encircled for seven days.G4102G5038G2410G4098G2944G1909G2033G2250 31By faith Rahab the prostitute did not perish with those who were disobedient, because she had given a friendly welcome to the spies.G4102G4204G4460G4881G3756G544G1209G2685G3326G1515 32And what more shall I say? For time would fail me to tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets—G2532G5101G3004G2089G3004G1063G5550G1952G3165G1334G4012G1066G5037G913G2532G4546G2532G2422G1138G2532G5037G4545G2532G4396 33who through faith conquered kingdoms, enforced justice, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,G3739G1223G4102G2610G932G2038G1343G2013G1860G5420G4750G3023 34quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, were made strong out of weakness, became mighty in war, put foreign armies to flight.G4570G1411G4442G5343G4750G3162G575G769G1743G1096G2478G1722G4171G2827G3925G245 35Women received back their dead by resurrection. Some were tortured, refusing to accept release, so that they might rise again to a better life.G1135G2983G846G3498G1537G386G1161G243G5178G3756G4327G629G2443G5177G2909G386 36Others suffered mocking and flogging, and even chains and imprisonment.G1161G2087G2983G3984G1701G2532G3148G1161G2089G1199G2532G5438 37They were stoned, they were sawn in two, they were killed with the sword. They went about in skins of sheep and goats, destitute, afflicted, mistreated—G3034G4249G3985G599G1722G5408G3162G4022G1722G3374G1722G122G1192G5302G2346G2558 38of whom the world was not worthy—wandering about in deserts and mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.G3739G2889G2258G3756G514G4105G1722G2047G2532G3735G2532G4693G2532G3692G1093 39And all these, though commended through their faith, did not receive what was promised,G2532G3778G3956G3140G1223G4102G2865G3756G1860 40since God had provided something better for us, that apart from us they should not be made perfect.G2316G4265G5100G2909G5100G4012G2257G3363G5048G5565G2257G5048G3363G5048
