Hebrews - Chapter: 11


11:1	Fayth is a sure confydence of thynges, whych are hoped for, & a certayntie of thynges whych are not sene.
11:2	For by it the elders obtayned a good reporte.
11:3	Thorowe fayth we vnderstande, that the worlde was ordeyned by the worde of God, and that thinges whych are sene, were made of thynges whych were not sene.
11:4	By fayth Abel offered vnto God a more plenteous sacryfyce then Cayn: by whych he obteyned witnes that he was ryghteous, God testyfyinge of his gyftes: by whych also he beyng deed, yet speaketh.
11:5	By fayth was Enoch translated, that he shulde not se deeth: nether was he founde: for god had taken him awaye. For a fore he was taken awaye, he obteyned a good reporte, that he pleased God:
11:6	but without fayth it can not be that anye man shuld please him. For he that commeth to God, must beleue that God is, & that he is a rewarder of them that seke hym.
11:7	By fayth Noe beynge warned of God, eschued the thynges which were as yet not sene, and prepared the arke to the sauynge of hys housholde, thorow the whych arke, he condempned the worlde, and became heyre of the ryghtewesnes which is accordyng to fayth.
11:8	By fayth Abraham, when he was called obeyed, to go out into a place, which he shuld afterwarde receaue to inheritaunce: & he went out, not knowing whether he shuld go.
11:9	By fayth he remoued into the lande of promes, as into a straunge countre, whan he had dwelt in tabernacles: & so dyd Isaac & Iacob heyres wt hym of the same promes.
11:10	For he loked for a cytie hauyng a foundacyon, whose buylder and maker is God.
11:11	Thorow fayth Sara also receaued strength to conceaue and be with chylde, and was delyuered of a childe when she was past age, because she iudged him faythful which had promysed.
11:12	And therfore sprange ther of one (euen of one whych was as good as deed) so many in multitude as are the starres of the skye, & as the sond, that which is by the see shore, innumerable.
11:13	These all dyed accordinge to fayth, whan they had not receaued the promises: but sawe them a farre of, and beleued them, & saluted them, and confessed, that they were straungers and pilgrems on the erthe.
11:14	For they that saye soch thynges, declare, that they seke a countre.
11:15	Also yf they had bene myndfull of the countre, from whence they came out, they had leasure to haue returned agayne:
11:16	but now they desyre a better (that is to saye) a heauenly. Wherfore God himselfe is not ashamed to be called theyr God for he hath prepared for them a citye.
11:17	By fayth Abraham offered vp Isaac, when he was proued, and he offered him beyng his only begotten sonne, in whom he had receaued the promyses.
11:18	And to hym it was sayde, in Isaac shal thy seed be called:
11:19	for he consydered, that God was able to rayse vp agayne from deeth. Therfore, receaued he him also for an ensample of the resurreccion.
11:20	By fayth did Isaac blesse Iacob and Esau, concernyng thynges to come.
11:21	By fayth Iacob when he was a dying, blessed both the sonnes of Ioseph, & bowed him selfe towarde the toppe of hys scepter.
11:22	By fayth Ioseph when he dyed, remembred the departing of the children of Israel, & gaue commaundement of hys bones.
11:23	By fayth Moses when he was borne was hyd thre monethes of his father & mother because they sawe he was a proper childe, nether feared they the kynges commaundement.
11:24	By fayth Moses when he was great, refused to be called the sonne of Pharaos daughter,
11:25	& chose rather to suffre aduersitie wyth the people of God, then to enioye the pleasures of synne for a ceason,
11:26	and estemed the rebuke of Christ greater riches then the treasures of Egypt. For he had respect vnto the rewarde.
11:27	By fayth he forsoke Egipt & feared not the fearcenes of the king. For he endured, euen as though he had sene him which is inuisible.
11:28	Thorow fayth he ordeyned the passeouer and that effusyon of bloud, lest he that destroyed the fyrst borne, shulde touch them.
11:29	By fayth they passed thorow the reed see as by drye lande: which when the Egypcyans had assayed to do, they were drowned.
11:30	By fayth the walles of Iericho fell downe after they were compassed about seuen dayes.
11:31	By fayth that harlot Raab perisshed not wt them that were disobedient, when she had receaued the spyes to lodgyng peaseably.
11:32	And what shall I more saye: for the tyme wyll be to short for me to tell of Gedon, of Barach, & of Sampson, & of Iephthae, of Dauid also & Samuel, & of the Prophetes:
11:33	Which thorow faith subdued kingdomes wrought righteousnes: obteyned the promyses: stopped the mouthes of lyons:
11:34	quenched that violence of fyre: escaped the edge of the swearde: out of weaknesse, were made stronge: waxed valient in fyght: turned to flight the armyes of the alientes
11:35	the wemen receaued theyr deed raysed to lyfe agayne. Other were racked, & wolde not be delyuered, that they myght inheret a better resurrection.
11:36	Agayne, other were tried wt mockynges & scourginges moreouer, wt bondes & presonment:
11:37	were stoned, were hewen asunder, were tempted, were slayne wt swearde, walked vp & downe in shepe skynnes, and goates skynnes, being destitute, troubled & vexed:
11:38	which men that worlde was not worthy of: they wandred in wildernesses: & in mountaynes, and in dennes, and caues of erth.
11:39	And these all thorow faith obtained good reporte, & receaued not the promes,
11:40	because God had prouided a better thing for vs, that they wt out vs shuld not be made parfecte.


11:1	But feith is the substaunce of thingis that ben to be hopid, and an argument of thingis not apperynge.
11:2	And in this feith elde men han gete witnessyng.
11:3	Bi feith we vndurstonden that the worldis weren maad bi Goddis word, that visible thingis weren maad of vnuysible thingis.
11:4	Bi feith Abel offride a myche more sacrifice than Caym to God, bi which he gat witnessyng to be iust, for God bar witnessyng to hise yiftis; and bi that feith he deed spekith yit.
11:5	Bi feith Ennok was translatid, that he schulde not se deth; and he was not foundun, for the Lord translatide him. For bifore translacioun he hadde witnessing that he pleside God.
11:6	And it is impossible to plese God without feith. For it bihoueth that a man comynge to God, bileue that he is, and that he is rewardere to men that seken hym.
11:7	Bi feith Noe dredde, thorouy answere takun of these thingis that yit weren not seyn, and schapide a schip in to the helthe of his hous; bi which he dampnede the world, and is ordeyned eir of riytwisnesse, which is bi feith.
11:8	By feith he that is clepid Abraham, obeiede to go out in to a place, whiche he schulde take in to eritage; and he wente out, not witinge whidur he schulde go.
11:9	Bi feith he dwelte in the loond of biheest, as in an alien loond, dwellynge in litle housis with Ysaac and Jacob, euene heiris of the same biheest.
11:10	For he abood a citee hauynge foundementis, whos crafti man and maker is God.
11:11	Bi feith also the ilke Sara bareyn, took vertu in consceyuyng of seed, yhe, ayen the tyme of age; for sche bileuede hym trewe, that hadde bihiyte.
11:12	For which thing of oon, and yit nyy deed, ther ben borun as sterris of heuene in multitude, and as grauel that is at the see side out of noumbre.
11:13	Bi feith alle these ben deed, whanne the biheestis weren not takun, but thei bihelden hem afer, and gretynge hem wel, and knoulechide that thei weren pilgryms, and herboryd men on the erthe.
11:14	And thei that sayn these thingis, signifien that thei sechen a cuntre.
11:15	`If thei hadden hadde mynde of the ilke, of which thei wenten out, thei hadden tyme of turnyng ayen;
11:16	but now thei desiren a betere, that is to seie, heuenli. Therfor God is not confoundid to be clepid the God of hem; for he made redi to hem a citee.
11:17	Bi feith Abraham offride Ysaac, whanne he was temptid; and he offride the oon bigetun, whych had takun the biheestis;
11:18	to whom it was seid, For in Ysaac the seed schal be clepid to thee.
11:19	For he demyde, that God is myyti to reise hym, yhe, fro deth; wherfor he took hym also in to a parable.
11:20	Bi feith also of thingis to comynge, Ysaac blesside Jacob and Esau.
11:21	Bi feith Jacob diynge blesside alle the sones of Joseph, and onouride the hiynesse of his yerde.
11:22	Bi feith Joseph dyynge hadde mynde of the passyng forth of the children of Israel, and comaundide of hise boonys.
11:23	Bi feith Moyses borun, was hid thre monethis of his fadir and modir, for that thei seiyen the yonge child fair; and thei dredden not the maundement of the king.
11:24	Bi feith Moises was maad greet, and denyede that he was the sone of Faraos douytir,
11:25	and chees more to be turmentid with the puple of God, than to haue myrthe of temporal synne;
11:26	demynge the repreef of Crist more richessis than the tresours of Egipcians; for he bihelde in to the rewarding.
11:27	Bi feith he forsook Egipt, and dredde not the hardynesse of the king; for he abood, as seinge hym that was vnuysible.
11:28	Bi feith he halewide pask, and the scheding out of blood, that he that distriede the firste thingis of Egipcians, schulde not touche hem.
11:29	Bi feith thei passiden the reed see, as bi drye lond, which thing Egipcians asaiynge weren deuourid.
11:30	Bi feith the wallis of Jerico felden doun, bi cumpassyng of seuene daies.
11:31	Bi feith Raab hoor resseyuede the aspieris with pees, and perischide not with vnbileueful men.
11:32	And what yit schal Y seie? For tyme schal faile to me tellynge of Gedeon, Barak, Sampson, Jepte, Dauid, and Samuel, and of othere prophetis;
11:33	whiche bi feith ouercamen rewmes, wrouyten riytwisnesse, gaten repromyssiouns; thei stoppiden the mouthis of liouns,
11:34	thei quenchiden the feersnesse of fier, thei dryueden awei the egge of swerd, thei coueriden of sijknesse, thei weren maad strong in batel, thei turneden the oostis of aliens.
11:35	Wymmen resseyueden her deed children fro deth to lijf; but othere weren holdun forth, not takinge redempcioun, that thei schulden fynde a betere ayenrising.
11:36	And othere asaieden scornyngis and betingis, more ouer and boondis and prisouns.
11:37	Thei weren stoned, thei weren sawid, thei weren temptid, thei weren deed in sleyng of swerd. Thei wenten aboute in broc skynnes, and in skynnes of geet, nedi, angwischid, turmentid;
11:38	to whiche the world was not worthi. Thei erriden in wildernessis, in mounteynes and dennes, and caues of the erthe.
11:39	And alle these, preued bi witnessing of feith, token not repromyssioun;
11:40	for God purueiede sum betere thing for vs, that thei schulden not be maad perfit with outen vs.


11:1	Faith is a sure confidence of thinges which are hoped for, and a certaynte of thinges which are not sene.
11:2	By it ye Elders were well reported of.
11:3	Thorow faith we vnderstonde, that the worlde and all the thinges which are sene, were made of naughte by the worde of God.
11:4	By faith offered Abell vnto God a more plenteous sacrifice: by the which he optayned wytnesse, that he was righteous: God testifyenge of his giftes, by the which also he beynge deed, yet speaketh.

11:6	But without faith it is vnpossible to please God. For he that commeth vnto God, must beleue that God is, & yt he is a rewarder of them that seke him.
11:7	By faith Noe honoured God, after yt he was warned of thinges which were not sene, & prepared the Arke, to ye sauinge of his housholde: thorow the which Arke he condemned the worlde, and became heyre of the righteousnes, which commeth by faith.
11:8	By faith Abraham (wha he was called) obeyed, to go out in to the place, which he shulde afterwarde receaue to inheritaunce: and he wente out, not knowynge whither he shulde go.
11:9	By faith was he a straunger in the lode of promes as in a straunge countre, & dwelt in tabernacles: and so dyd Isaac & Iacob, heyres with him of the same promes:
11:10	for he loked for a cite which hath a foundacion, whose buylder and maker is God.
11:11	By faith Sara also receaued strength to be with childe, and was delyuered of a childe whan she was past age, because she iudged him to be faithfull which had promysed.
11:12	And therfore spronge there of one (yee euen off one which was as good as deed concernynge the body) so many in multitude as the starres off the skye, and as the sonde off the See shore, which is innumerable.
11:13	All these dyed acordinge to faith, and receaued not the promyses, but sawe the afarre off, and beleued them, and saluted them: and cofessed, that they were straungers & pilgrems vpo earth.
11:14	For they that saye soch thinges, declare, that they seke a naturall countre.
11:15	And doutles yf they had bene myndefull off that countre from whence they came out, they had leysure to haue returned agayne.
11:16	But now they desyre a better, that is to saye, a heauely. Wherfore God is not ashamed of the, eue to be called their God: for he hath prepared a cite for them.
11:17	By faith Abraha offered vp Isaac, wha he was tempted, and gaue ouer his onely begotten sonne, in whom he had receaued the promyses,
11:18	of whom it was sayde: In Isaac shal thy sede be called:

11:20	By faith Isaac blessed Iacob and Esau, concernynge thinges to come.
11:21	By faith Iacob, whan he was a dyenge, blessed both the sonnes off Ioseph, & bowed himselfe towarde the toppe of his cepter.
11:22	By faith Ioseph whan he dyed, remembred ye departynge of the childre of Israel, & gaue comaundemet concernynge his bones.
11:23	By faith Moses wha he was borne, was hyd thre monethes of his Elders, because they sawe that he was a proper childe, nether feared they the kynges comaundemet.
11:24	By faith Moses whan he was greate, refused to be called the sonne of Pharaos doughter:
11:25	and chose rather to suffre aduersite with the people of God, then to enioye ye pleasures of synne for a season:
11:26	and estemed the rebuke of Christ greater riches, then the treasure of Egipte: for he had respecte vnto the rewarde.
11:27	By faith he forsoke Egipte, and feared not the fearcenes of the kynge: for he endured, eue as though he had sene him which is inuisible.
11:28	By faith he helde Easter, and the effusion of bloude, lest he which slewe the firstborne, shulde touche them.

11:31	By faith the harlot Raab perished not with the vnbeleuers, wha she had receaued the spyes to lodginge peaceably.
11:32	And what shal I more saye? ye tyme wolde be to shorte for me to tell of Gedeon, of Barac, and of Samson, & of Iepthae, and of Dauid, and Samuel, and of the prophetes,
11:33	which thorow faith subdued kyngdomes, wroughte righteousnes, optayned ye promyses, stopped ye mouthes of lyos
11:34	quenched the violece of fyre, escaped ye edge of the swerde, of weake were made stronge, became valeaunt in batayll, turned to flighte the armyes of the aleauntes,
11:35	the wemen receaued their deed agayne from resurreccion. But other were racked, and accepted no delyueraunce, that they mighte optayne the resurreccion that better is.
11:36	Other taisted of mockinges and scourginges, of bondes also and presonment:
11:37	were stoned, were hewen a sunder, were tempted, were slayne with the swerde, wente aboute in shepe skynnes and goates skynnes, in nede, in tribulacion, in vexacion,
11:38	which (men) the worlde was not worthy of: they wandred aboute in wyldernesses, vpon mountaynes, in dennes and caues of the earth.
11:39	And these all thorow faith optayned good reporte, and receaued not ye promes:
11:40	because God had prouyded a better thinge for vs, that they without vs shulde not be made perfecte.
