NowG1161 faithG4102 is the substanceG5287 of thingsG4229 hopedG1679 for, the evidenceG1650 of things not seen.G991
2
For by it the eldersG4245 obtainedG3140 a good report.G3140
3
Through faithG4102 we understandG3539 that the worldsG165 were framedG2675 by the wordG4487 of God,G2316 soG1519 that things whichG3588 are seenG991 were not madeG1096 of things which do appear.G5316
4
By faithG4102 AbelG6 offeredG4374 to GodG2316 a more excellentG4119 sacrificeG2378 thanG3844 Cain,G2535 by whichG3739 he obtainedG3140 witnessG3140 that he was righteous,G1342 GodG2316 testifyingG3140 of his gifts:G1435 and by it he being deadG599 yetG2089 speaks.G2980
5
By faithG4102 EnochG1802 was translatedG3346 that he should not seeG1492 death;G2288 and was not found,G2147 becauseG1360 GodG2316 had translatedG3346 him: for beforeG4253 his translationG3331 he had this testimony,G3140 that he pleasedG2100 God.G2316
6
But withoutG5565 faithG4102 it is impossibleG102 to pleaseG2100 him: for he that comesG4334 to GodG2316 mustG1163 believeG4100 that he is, and that he is a rewarderG3406 of them that diligentlyG1567 seekG1567 him.
7
By faithG4102 Noah,G3575 being warnedG5537 of God of things not seenG991 as yet,G3369 movedG2125 with fear,G2125 preparedG2680 an arkG2787 to the savingG4991 of his house;G3624 by the whichG3739 he condemnedG2632 the world,G2889 and becameG1096 heirG2818 of the righteousnessG1343 which is by faith.G4102
8
By faithG4102 Abraham,G11 when he was calledG2564 to goG1831 out intoG1519 a placeG5117 whichG3739 he shouldG3195 afterG3195 receiveG2983 for an inheritance,G2817 obeyed;G5219 and he wentG1831 out, not knowingG1987 whereG4226 he went.G2064
9
By faithG4102 he sojournedG3939 in the landG1093 of promise,G1860 as in a strangeG245 country, dwellingG2730 in tabernaclesG4633 with IsaacG2464 and Jacob,G2384 the heirsG4789 with him of the same promise:G1860
10
For he lookedG1551 for a cityG4172 which hasG2192 foundations,G2310 whoseG3739 builderG5079 and makerG1217 is God.G2316
11
Through faithG4102 alsoG2532 SaraG4564 herselfG846 receivedG2983 strengthG1411 to conceiveG2602 seed,G4690 and was deliveredG5088 of a childG5088 when she was pastG3844 age,G2244 becauseG1893 she judgedG2233 him faithfulG4103 who had promised.G1861
12
ThereforeG1352 sprangG1080 there evenG2532 of one,G1520 and him as good as dead,G3499 so many as the starsG798 of the skyG3772 in multitude,G4128 and as the sandG285 whichG3588 is by the seaG2281 shoreG5491 innumerable.G382
13
TheseG3778 allG3956 diedG599 in faith,G4102 not having receivedG2983 the promises,G1860 but having seenG1492 them afarG4207 off, and were persuadedG3982 of them, and embracedG782 them, and confessedG3670 that they were strangersG3581 and pilgrimsG3927 onG1909 the earth.G1093
14
For they that sayG3004 suchG5108 things declareG1718 plainlyG1718 that they seekG1934 a country.G3968
15
And truly,G3303 ifG1487 they had been mindfulG3421 of that country from whereG3739 they cameG1831 out, they might haveG2192 hadG2192 opportunityG2540 to have returned.G344
16
But nowG3570 they desireG3713 a betterG2909 country, that is, an heavenly:G2032 whyG1352 GodG2316 is not ashamedG1870 to be calledG1941 their God:G2316 for he has preparedG2090 for them a city.G4172
17
By faithG4102 Abraham,G11 when he was tried,G3985 offeredG4374 up Isaac:G2464 and he that had receivedG324 the promisesG1860 offeredG4374 up his onlyG3439 begottenG3439 son,
18
Of whomG3739 it was said,G2980 That in IsaacG2464 shall your seedG4690 be called:G2564
19
AccountingG3049 that GodG2316 was ableG1415 to raiseG1453 him up, evenG2532 from the dead;G3498 from whereG3606 alsoG2532 he receivedG2865 him in a figure.G3850
20
By faithG4102 IsaacG2464 blessedG2127 JacobG2384 and EsauG2269 concerningG4012 things to come.G3195
21
By faithG4102 Jacob,G2384 when he was a dying,G599 blessedG2127 bothG1538 the sonsG5207 of Joseph;G2501 and worshipped,G4352 leaning on the topG206 of his staff.G4464
22
By faithG4102 Joseph,G2501 when he died,G5053 madeG3421 mentionG3421 of the departingG1841 of the childrenG5207 of Israel;G2474 and gave commandmentG1781 concerningG4012 his bones.G3747
23
By faithG4102 Moses,G3475 when he was born,G1080 was hidG2928 threeG5150 monthsG5150 of his parents,G3962 becauseG1360 they sawG1492 he was a properG791 child;G3813 and they were not afraidG5399 of the king'sG935 commandment.G1297
24
By faithG4102 Moses,G3475 when he was comeG1096 to years,G1096 G3173 refusedG720 to be calledG3004 the sonG5207 of Pharaoh'sG5328 daughter;G2364
25
ChoosingG138 ratherG3123 to sufferG4778 afflictionG4778 with the peopleG2992 of God,G2316 thanG2228 to enjoyG2192 G619 the pleasuresG2237 of sinG266 for a season;G4340
26
EsteemingG2233 the reproachG3680 of ChristG5547 greaterG3187 richesG4149 than the treasuresG2344 in Egypt:G125 for he had respectG578 to the recompenseG3405 of the reward.G3405
27
By faithG4102 he forsookG2641 Egypt,G125 not fearingG5399 the wrathG2372 of the king:G935 for he endured,G2594 as seeingG3708 him who is invisible.G517
28
Through faithG4102 he keptG4160 the passover,G3957 and the sprinklingG4378 of blood,G129 lestG2443 G3361 he that destroyedG3645 the firstbornG4416 should touchG2345 them.
29
By faithG4102 they passedG1224 throughG1224 the RedG2281 seaG2281 as by dryG3584 land: whichG3739 the EgyptiansG124 assayingG3984 G2983 to do were drowned.G2666
30
By faithG4102 the wallsG5038 of JerichoG2410 fellG4098 down, after they were compassedG2944 aboutG2944 sevenG2033 days.G2250
31
By faithG4102 the harlotG4204 RahabG4460 perishedG4881 not with them that believedG544 not, when she had receivedG1209 the spiesG2685 with peace.G1515
32
And whatG5101 shall I moreG2089 say?G3004 for the timeG5550 would failG1952 me to tellG1334 of Gedeon,G1066 and of Barak,G913 and of Samson,G4546 and of Jephthae;G2422 of DavidG1138 also,G5037 and Samuel,G4545 and of the prophets:G4396
33
WhoG3739 throughG1223 faithG4102 subduedG2610 kingdoms,G932 workedG2038 righteousness,G1343 obtainedG2013 promises,G1860 stoppedG5420 the mouthsG4750 of lions.G3023
34
QuenchedG4570 the violenceG1411 of fire,G4442 escapedG5343 the edgeG4750 of the sword,G3162 out of weaknessG769 were madeG1743 strong,G1743 waxedG1096 valiantG2478 in fight,G4171 turnedG2827 to flightG5437 the armiesG3925 of the aliens.G245
35
WomenG1135 receivedG2983 their deadG3498 raisedG386 to life again:G386 and othersG243 were tortured,G5178 not acceptingG4327 deliverance;G629 that they might obtainG5177 a betterG2909 resurrection:G386
36
And othersG2087 hadG2983 trialG3984 of cruel mockingsG1701 and scourgings,G3148 yes,G1161 moreoverG1161 of bondsG1199 and imprisonment:G5438
37
They were stoned,G3034 they were sawnG4249 asunder,G4249 were tempted,G3985 were slainG1722 with the sword:G3162 they wanderedG4022 aboutG4022 in sheepskinsG3374 and goatskins;G122 G1192 being destitute,G5302 afflicted,G2346 tormented;G2558
38
(Of whomG3739 the worldG2889 was not worthy:G514) they wanderedG4105 in deserts,G2047 and in mountains,G3735 and in densG4693 and cavesG3692 of the earth.G1093
39
And theseG3778 all,G3956 having obtainedG3140 a good reportG3140 throughG1223 faith,G4102 receivedG2865 not the promise:G1860
40
GodG2316 having providedG4265 someG5100 betterG2909 thing for us, that they withoutG5565 us should not be madeG5048 perfect.G5048
