< Hebrews 11 >
1 Is now faith of [things] hoped for [the] assurance, of things [the] conviction not being seen.

5 By faith Enoch was translated not to see death and not was he found because took up him God; Before for the translation (of him *k) he has been commended to have pleased God;
6 Without now faith [it is] impossible to please [Him]; To believe for it behooves the one drawing near to God that He exists and [that] to those earnestly seeking out Him a rewarder He becomes.
7 By faith having been divinely instructed Noah concerning the [things] not yet seen having been moved with fear he prepared an ark for [the] salvation of the household of him, through which he condemned the world and of the according to faith righteousness [that is] he became heir.
8 By faith (the [one] *o) being called Abraham obeyed to go out into a place that he was going to receive for an inheritance and went out not knowing where he is going.

10 He was awaiting for the foundations having city of which [the] architect and builder [is] God.
11 By faith also herself Sarah ([being] barren *N) power for [the] conception of seed received even beyond [the] opportune age (she brought forth *K) since faithful she considered the [One] having promised.
12 Therefore also from one man were born, and he as good as dead, even as the stars of heaven in multitude and (as *N+kO) the sand by the shore of the sea countless.
13 In faith died these all not (having received *NK+O) the promises but from afar them having seen and (having been persuaded and *K) having embraced [them] and having confessed that strangers and sojourners they are on the earth.
14 Those for such things saying make manifest that their country they are seeking.
15 And if indeed that [one] (they were remembering *NK+o) from where (they came out, *N+kO) they had then would opportunity to return;
16 (now *N+kO) however to a better [one] they stretch forward to, That is to a heavenly [one]; Therefore not is ashamed of them God God to be called of them; He has prepared indeed for them a city.
17 By faith has offered up Abraham Isaac Being tested, even [his] only begotten [son] was offering up the [one] the promises having received,
18 as to whom it was said that In Isaac will be reckoned your offspring;
19 having reasoned that even out from [the] dead to raise able [was] God, from where him also in a simile he received.
20 By faith (also *no) concerning [the things] coming blessed Isaac Jacob and Esau.
21 By faith Jacob dying each of the sons of Joseph blessed and worshiped on the top of the staff of him.

24 By faith Moses grown having become he refused to be named [the] son of [the] daughter of Pharaoh,
25 rather having chosen to suffer affliction with the people of God than [the] temporary to have of sin enjoyment;
26 greater wealth having esteemed than that (in *k) (Egypt *N+kO) treasures the reproach of Christ; he was looking for toward the reward.
27 By faith he left Egypt not having feared the anger of the king; the for Invisible [One] as seeing he persevered.

30 By faith the walls of Jericho (fell *N+kO) having been encircled for seven days.
31 By faith Rahab the prostitute not did perish with those having disobeyed having received the spies with peace.
32 And what more shall I say? Will fail me for telling the time of Gideon, Barak, (both and *k) Samson, (and *k) Jephthah, David also and Samuel and the prophets;
33 who through faith conquered kingdoms, administered justice, obtained promises, shut [the] mouths of lions,
34 quenched [the] power of fire, escaped [the] blades of [the] sword, (be empowered *N+kO) out of weakness, became mighty in war, [the] armies put to flight of foreigners.
35 Received back women by resurrection the dead of them; others then were tortured not having accepted release, so that a better resurrection they may obtain;
36 Others then of mockings and of scourgings trial received, in addition also of chains and imprisonment;
37 They were stoned, they were sawed in two (tested *KO) by slaughter of [the] sword they were killed; they wandered in sheepskins, in goats’ skins, being destitute, being oppressed, being mistreated,
38 of whom not was worthy the world; (in *N+kO) deserts wandering and in mountains and in caves and in the holes of the earth.
39 And these all having been commended through the faith not did receive the promise
40 God for us better something having planned, so that not apart from us they may be made perfect.
