Hebrews 11:1-7

1NowG1161 faithG4102 isG1510 the substanceG5287 of things hoped forG1679, the evidenceG1650 of thingsG4229 notG3756 seenG991.

2ForG1063 byG1722 itG3778 the eldersG4245 had witness borne to themG3140.

3Through faithG4102 we understandG3539 thatG2675 the worldsG3588G165 were framedG2675 by the wordG4487 of GodG2316, so thatG1519 things which are seenG991 wereG1096 notG3361 madeG1096 ofG1537 things which do appearG5316.

4By faithG4102 AbelG6 offeredG4374 unto GodG3588G2316 aG2378 more excellentG4119 sacrificeG2378 thanG3844 CainG2535, byG1223 whichG3739 he obtained witnessG3140 that he wasG1510 righteousG1342, GodG3588G2316 testifyingG3140 ofG1909 hisG846 giftsG3588G1435: andG2532 byG1223 itG846 he being deadG599 yetG2089 speakethG2980.

5By faithG4102 EnochG1802 was translatedG3346 thatG3361 he shouldG3708 notG3361 seeG3708 deathG2288; andG2532 wasG2147 notG3756 foundG2147, becauseG1360 GodG3588G2316 had translatedG3346 himG846: forG1063 beforeG4253 hisG846 translationG3588G3331 he had this testimonyG3140, that he pleasedG2100 GodG3588G2316.

6ButG1161 withoutG5565 faithG4102 it is impossibleG102 to pleaseG2100 him: forG1063 he that comethG3588G4334 to GodG3588G2316 mustG1163 believeG4100 thatG3754 he isG1510, andG2532 that he isG1096 a rewarderG3406 of them that diligently seekG3588G1567 himG846.

7By faithG4102 NoahG3575, being warned of GodG5537 ofG4012 thingsG991 notG3588G3369 seenG991 as yetG3588G3369, moved with fearG2125, preparedG2680 an arkG2787 toG1519 the savingG4991 ofG3588G3624 hisG846 houseG3588G3624; byG1223 the whichG3739 he condemnedG2632 the worldG3588G2889, andG2532 becameG1096 heirG2818 of the righteousnessG1343 which is byG3588G2596 faithG4102.
