Hebrews 11:13-16

131AllG3956 theseG3778 diedG599 in faithG4102, 2withoutG3361 receivingG2865 the promisesG1860, but 3having seenG3708 and welcomedG782 them from a distanceG4207, and 4having confessedG3670 that they were strangersG3581 and exilesG3927 on the earthG1093. 14For thoseG3588 who sayG3004 suchG5108 thingsG5108 makeG1718 it clearG1718 that they are seekingG1934 a countryG3968 ofG3968 their ownG3968. 15And indeedG3303 ifG1487 they had been 5thinkingG3421 of that country whichG3739 they leftG1544, 6they would have hadG2192 opportunityG2540 to returnG344. 16But as it is, they desireG3713 a betterG2909 country, that is, a 7heavenlyG2032 oneG2032. ThereforeG1352 8GodG2316 isG1870 not 9ashamedG1870 to be 10calledG1941 their GodG2316; for 11He has preparedG2090 a cityG4172 for them.
