Hebrews 11:8-22
8ByG5117 faithG4102 AbrahamG11, whenG2532 heG2532 was calledG2564, obeyedG5219 toG1519 goG1831 outG1831 unto a placeG5117 whichG3739 heG2532 was toG1519 receiveG2983 forG1519 anG2532 inheritanceG2817; andG2532 heG2532 wentG1831 outG1831, notG3361 knowingG1987 whither heG2532 wentG1831.
9ByG1722 faithG4102 heG2532 became a sojourner inG1722 theG3588 landG1093 ofG1093 promiseG1860, asG5613 inG1722 a landG1093 notG2532 hisG846 ownG846, dwellingG2730 inG1722 tentsG4633, withG3326 IsaacG2464 andG2532 JacobG2384, theG3588 heirsG4789 withG3326 himG846 ofG1093 theG3588 sameG846 promiseG1860:
10forG1063 heG2532 looked forG1063 theG3588 cityG4172 whichG3739 hath theG3588 foundationsG2310, whoseG3739 builderG1217 andG2532 maker is GodG2316.
11ByG3844 faithG4102 evenG2532 SarahG4564 herselfG846 receivedG2983 powerG1411 toG1519 conceive seedG4690 whenG2532 sheG846 was past ageG2540, sinceG1893 sheG846 countedG2233 himG846 faithfulG4103 whoG3588 had promisedG1861:
12whereforeG1352 alsoG2532 there sprang ofG1080 oneG1520, andG2532 himG2532 asG5613 good asG5613 deadG3499, soG2532 many asG5613 theG3588 starsG798 ofG1080 heavenG3772 inG2532 multitudeG4128, andG2532 asG5613 theG3588 sandG285, whichG3588 is byG575 theG3588 seaG2281 shore, innumerableG382.
13TheseG3778 allG3956 diedG599 inG1909 faithG4102, notG3361 having receivedG2983 theG3956 promisesG1860, butG235 having seenG3708 themG846 andG2532 greetedG782 themG846 fromG2596 afar, andG2532 having confessedG3670 thatG3754 theyG846 wereG1510 strangersG3581 andG2532 pilgrims onG1909 theG3956 earthG1093.
14ForG1063 theyG3754 thatG3754 sayG3004 suchG5108 thingsG5108 makeG1718 itG3004 manifest thatG3754 theyG3754 are seekingG1934 afterG1063 a countryG3968 ofG3004 theirG3754 ownG3968.
15AndG2532 ifG1487 indeedG2532 theyG3739 had beenG2192 mindful ofG575 thatG3739 country fromG575 whichG3739 theyG3739 went outG575, theyG3739 wouldG302 have had opportunityG2540 toG2532 returnG344.
16ButG1161 nowG1161 theyG846 desireG3713 aG1510 betterG2909 country, thatG3778 isG1510, aG1510 heavenlyG2032: whereforeG1352 GodG2316 isG1510 notG3756 ashamedG1870 ofG2316 themG846, toG3778 beG1510 calledG1941 theirG846 GodG2316: forG1063 heG846 hath preparedG2090 forG1063 themG846 aG1510 cityG4172.
17ByG2532 faithG4102 AbrahamG11, being triedG3985, offeredG4374 upG4374 IsaacG2464: yea, heG2532 that had gladly receivedG324 theG3588 promisesG1860 was offeringG4374 upG4374 hisG2532 onlyG3439 begottenG3439 son;
18even heG3739 toG4314 whomG3739 itG3739 was saidG2980, InG1722 IsaacG2464 shallG2564 thy seedG4690 beG4690 calledG2564:
19accounting thatG3754 GodG2316 is ableG1415 toG2532 raiseG1453 upG1453, evenG2532 fromG1537 theG3588 deadG3498; fromG1537 whence heG2532 did alsoG2532 inG1722 a parableG3850 receiveG2865 himG846 backG2865.
20ByG2532 faithG4102 IsaacG2464 blessedG2127 JacobG2384 andG2532 EsauG2269, evenG2532 concerningG4012 thingsG3195 toG3195 comeG3195.
21ByG1909 faithG4102 JacobG2384, whenG2532 heG2532 was a dyingG599, blessedG2127 eachG1538 ofG5207 theG3588 sonsG5207 ofG5207 JosephG2501; andG2532 worshipped, leaning uponG1909 theG3588 topG206 ofG5207 hisG846 staffG4464.
22ByG2532 faithG4102 JosephG2501, whenG2532 hisG846 end was nigh, madeG3421 mentionG3421 ofG5207 theG3588 departureG1841 ofG5207 theG3588 children ofG5207 IsraelG2474; andG2532 gaveG1781 commandment concerningG4012 hisG846 bonesG3747.
