Hebrews 11:8-16
8By faithG4102 AbrahamG11, being calledG2564, obeyedG5219 to goG1831 out into the placeG5117 which he was to receiveG2983 for an inheritanceG2817, and wentG1831 out, not knowingG1987 whereG4226 he was going.
9By faithG4102 he sojourned as a strangerG245 in the landG1093 of promiseG1860 as a foreign country, having dwelt in tents with IsaacG2464 and JacobG2384, the heirs with [him] of the sameG846 promiseG1860;
10for he waited for the cityG4172 which has foundationsG2310, of which 1GodG2316 is [the] artificer and constructor.
11By faithG4102 alsoG2532 SarahG4564 herself receivedG2983 strength for [the] conception of seedG4690, and [that] beyond a seasonable age; since she counted him faithfulG4103 who promisedG1861.
12Wherefore alsoG2532 there have been bornG1080 of oneG1520, and that of oneG1520 become dead, evenG2532 as the starsG798 of heavenG3772 in multitudeG4128, and as the countless sandG285 which [is] by the seaG2281 shore.
13All these diedG599 in faithG4102, not having receivedG2983 the promisesG1860, but having seenG3708 them from afar off and embraced [them], and confessedG3670 that they wereG1510 strangersG3581 and sojourners on the earthG1093.
14For they who sayG3004 suchG5108 thingsG5108 shew clearly that they seekG1934 [their] country.
15And if they had called to mind that from whence they went out, they had had opportunityG2540 to have returned;
16but nowG1161 they seek a better, that isG1510, a heavenlyG2032; wherefore 2GodG2316 isG1510 not ashamedG1870 of them, to beG1510 calledG1941 their 3GodG2316; for he has preparedG2090 for them a cityG4172.
