Hebrews 11:16-39

16But nowG1161 they desire a better country, that isG1510, a heavenlyG2032: wherefore GodG2316 isG1510 not ashamedG1870 of them, to beG1510 calledG1941 their GodG2316; for he hath preparedG2090 for them a cityG4172.

17By faithG4102 AbrahamG11, being tried, offeredG4374 up IsaacG2464: yea, he that had gladly received the promisesG1860 was offeringG4374 up his onlyG3439 begottenG3439 son; 18even he to whom it was saidG2980, In IsaacG2464 shall thy seedG4690 be calledG2564: 19accounting that GodG2316 is ableG1415 to raiseG1453 up, evenG2532 from the deadG3498; from whence he did alsoG2532 in a figure receiveG2865 him backG2865. 20By faithG4102 IsaacG2464 blessedG2127 JacobG2384 and EsauG2269, evenG2532 concerningG4012 thingsG3195 to comeG3195. 21By faithG4102 JacobG2384, when he was dyingG599, blessedG2127 each of the sonsG5207 of JosephG2501; and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staffG4464. 22By faithG4102 JosephG2501, when his end was nigh, made mention of the departure of the children of IsraelG2474; and gaveG1781 commandment concerningG4012 his bones. 23By faithG4102 MosesG3475, when he was bornG1080, was hidG2928 three months by his parents, because they sawG3708 he was a goodly childG3813; and they were not afraidG5399 of the king’sG935 commandment. 24By faithG4102 MosesG3475, whenG1096 he was grown up, refused to be called the sonG5207 of Pharaoh’s daughterG2364; 25choosing ratherG3123 to share ill treatment with the peopleG2992 of GodG2316, than to enjoy the pleasures of sinG266 for a season; 26accounting the reproachG3680 of ChristG5547 greaterG3173 richesG4149 than the treasuresG2344 of EgyptG125: for he looked unto the recompense of rewardG3405. 27By faithG4102 he forsook EgyptG125, not fearingG5399 the wrathG2372 of the kingG935: for he endured, as seeingG3708 him who is invisibleG517. 28By faithG4102 he kept the passoverG3957, and the sprinkling of the bloodG129, that the destroyer of the firstbornG4416 should not touchG2345 them. 29By faithG4102 they passed through the RedG2063 seaG2281 as by dryG3584 landG1093: which the EgyptiansG124 assaying to do were swallowedG2666 up. 30By faithG4102 the wallsG5038 of JerichoG2410 fellG4098 downG4098, after they had been compassed about for sevenG2033 daysG2250. 31By faithG4102 RahabG4460 the harlot perished not with them that were disobedientG544, having receivedG1209 the spies with peaceG1515.

32And what shall I moreG2089 sayG3004? for the timeG5550 will fail me if I tellG3004 of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah; of DavidG1138 and SamuelG4545 and the prophetsG4396: 33who through faithG4102 subdued kingdomsG932, wrought righteousnessG1343, obtainedG2013 promisesG1860, stopped the mouthsG4750 of lionsG3023, 34quenchedG4570 the powerG1411 of fireG4442, escaped the edge of the swordG3162, from weaknessG769 were made strongG2478, waxed mightyG2478 in warG4171, turned to flight armies of aliens. 35WomenG1135 receivedG2983 their deadG3498 by a resurrectionG386: and othersG243 were tortured, not acceptingG4327 their deliverance; that they might obtainG5177 a better resurrectionG386: 36and othersG2087 had trial of mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment: 37they were stonedG3034, they were sawn asunder, they were temptedG3985, they were slain with the swordG3162: they went about in sheepskins, in goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, ill-treated 38(of whom the worldG2889 wasG1510 not worthyG514), wandering in deserts and mountainsG3735 and caves, and the holes of the earthG1093. 39And these all, having had witnessG3140 borne to them through their faithG4102, receivedG2865 not the promiseG1860,
