Hebrews 11:1-7

1NowG1161 faithG4102 isG1510 assuranceG5287 ofthingsG4229hopedG1679 for, a conviction of thingsG4229 not seenG991.

2For therein the eldersG4245 had witnessG3140 borne to them.

3By faithG4102 we understandG3539 that the worlds have been framed by the word of GodG2316, so that what is seenG991 hath not been made out of things which appearG5316.

4By faithG4102 AbelG6 offeredG4374 unto GodG2316 a moreG4183 excellent sacrificeG2378 than CainG2535, through which he had witnessG3140 borne to him that he wasG1510 righteousG1342, GodG2316 bearing witnessG3140 in respect of his giftsG1435: and through it he beingG1510 deadG599 yet speaketh.

5By faithG4102 EnochG1802 was translated that he should not seeG3708 deathG2288; and he was not foundG2147, because GodG2316 translated him: for he hath had witnessG3140 borne to him that before his translation he had been well-pleasing unto GodG2316:

6and without faithG4102 it isG1510 impossibleG102 to beG1510 well-pleasing unto him; for he that cometh to GodG2316 must believeG4100 that he isG1510, and that he isG1510 a rewarder of them that seek after him.

7By faithG4102 NoahG3575, being warnedG5537 of God concerningG4012 thingsG3739 not seenG991 as yet, moved with godly fear, preparedG2680 an arkG2787 to the saving of his houseG3624; through which he condemnedG2632 the worldG2889, and becameG1096 heirG2818 of the righteousnessG1343 which is accordingG2596 to faithG4102.
