Hebrews - Chapter: 11

>
11:1And faith is of things hoped for a confidence, of matters not seen a conviction,
11:2for in this were the elders testified of;
11:3by faith we understand the ages to have been prepared by a saying of God, in regard to the things seen not having come out of things appearing;
11:4by faith a better sacrifice did Abel offer to God than Cain, through which he was testified to be righteous, God testifying of his gifts, and through it, he being dead, doth yet speak.
11:5By faith Enoch was translated -- not to see death, and was not found, because God did translate him; for before his translation he had been testified to -- that he had pleased God well,
11:6and apart from faith it is impossible to please well, for it behoveth him who is coming to God to believe that He is, and to those seeking Him He becometh a rewarder.
11:7By faith Noah, having been divinely warned concerning the things not yet seen, having feared, did prepare an ark to the salvation of his house, through which he did condemn the world, and of the righteousness according to faith he became heir.
11:8By faith Abraham, being called, did obey, to go forth to the place that he was about to receive for an inheritance, and he went forth, not knowing whither he doth go;
11:9by faith he did sojourn in the land of the promise as a strange country, in tabernacles having dwelt with Isaac and Jacob, fellow-heirs of the same promise,
11:10for he was looking for the city having the foundations, whose artificer and constructor `is' God.
11:11By faith also Sarah herself did receive power to conceive seed, and she bare after the time of life, seeing she did judge Him faithful who did promise;
11:12wherefore, also from one were begotten -- and that of one who had become dead -- as the stars of the heaven in multitude, and as sand that `is' by the sea-shore -- the innumerable.
11:13In faith died all these, not having received the promises, but from afar having seen them, and having been persuaded, and having saluted `them', and having confessed that strangers and sojourners they are upon the earth,
11:14for those saying such things make manifest that they seek a country;
11:15and if, indeed, they had been mindful of that from which they came forth, they might have had an opportunity to return,
11:16but now they long for a better, that is, an heavenly, wherefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God, for He did prepare for them a city.
11:17By faith Abraham hath offered up Isaac, being tried, and the only begotten he did offer up who did receive the promises,
11:18of whom it was said -- `In Isaac shall a seed be called to thee;'
11:19reckoning that even out of the dead God is able to raise up, whence also in a figure he did receive `him'.
11:20By faith, concerning coming things, Isaac did bless Jacob and Esau;
11:21by faith Jacob dying -- each of the sons of Joseph did bless, and did bow down upon the top of his staff;
11:22by faith, Joseph dying, concerning the outgoing of the sons of Israel did make mention, and concerning his bones did give command.
11:23By faith Moses, having been born, was hid three months by his parents, because they saw the child comely, and were not afraid of the decree of the king;
11:24by faith Moses, having become great, did refuse to be called a son of the daughter of Pharaoh,
11:25having chosen rather to be afflicted with the people of God, than to have sin's pleasure for a season,
11:26greater wealth having reckoned the reproach of the Christ than the treasures in Egypt, for he did look to the recompense of reward;
11:27by faith he left Egypt behind, not having been afraid of the wrath of the king, for, as seeing the Invisible One -- he endured;
11:28by faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of the blood, that He who is destroying the first-born might not touch them.
11:29By faith they did pass through the Red Sea as through dry land, which the Egyptians having received a trial of, were swallowed up;
11:30by faith the walls of Jericho did fall, having been surrounded for seven days;
11:31by faith Rahab the harlot did not perish with those who disbelieved, having received the spies with peace.
11:32And what shall I yet say? for the time will fail me recounting about Gideon, Barak also, and Samson, and Jephthah, David also, and Samuel, and the prophets,
11:33who through faith did subdue kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped mouths of lions,
11:34quenched the power of fire, escaped the mouth of the sword, were made powerful out of infirmities, became strong in battle, caused to give way camps of the aliens.
11:35Women received by a rising again their dead, and others were tortured, not accepting the redemption, that a better rising again they might receive,
11:36and others of mockings and scourgings did receive trial, and yet of bonds and imprisonment;
11:37they were stoned, they were sawn asunder, they were tried; in the killing of the sword they died; they went about in sheepskins, in goatskins -- being destitute, afflicted, injuriously treated,
11:38of whom the world was not worthy; in deserts wandering, and `in' mountains, and `in' caves, and `in' the holes of the earth;
11:39and these all, having been testified to through the faith, did not receive the promise,
11:40God for us something better having provided, that apart from us they might not be made perfect.

 

11:1Fayth is a sure confidence of thynges which are hoped for and a certayntie of thynges which are not sene.
11:2By it ye elders were well reported of.
11:3Thorow fayth we vnderstonde that the worlde was ordeyned by the worde of god: and that thynges which are sene were made of thynges which are not sene.
11:4By fayth Abell offered vnto god a more plenteous sacrifice then Cayn: by which he obteyned witnes that he was righteous god testifyinge of his gyftes: by which also he beynge deed yet speaketh.
11:5By fayth was Enoch traslated yt he shuld not se deeth: nether was he founde: for God had taken him awaye. Before he was taken awaye he was reported of that he had pleased God:
11:6but with out fayth it is vnpossible to please him. For he that commeth to God must beleve that God is and that he is a rewarder of them that seke him.
11:7By fayth Noe honored God after that he was warned of thinges which were not sene and prepared the arcke to the savinge of his houssholde thorowe the which arcke he condempned the worlde and became heyre of the rightewesnes which commeth by fayth.
11:8By fayth Abraha whe he was called obeyed to goo out into a place which he shuld afterwarde receave to inheritaunce and he wet out not knowynge whether he shuld goo.
11:9By fayth he removed into the londe yt was promysed him as into a straunge countre and dwelt in tabernacles: and so dyd Isaac and Iacob heyres with him of the same promes.
11:10For he loked for a citie havinge a foundacio whose bylder and maker is God.
11:11Thorow fayth Sara also receaved stregth to be with chylde and was delivered of a chylde when she was past age because she iudged him faythfull which had promysed.
11:12And therfore spronge therof one (and of one which was as good as deed) so many in multitude as the starres of ye skye and as the sond of the see shore which is innumerable.
11:13And they all dyed in fayth and receaved not the promyses: but sawe them a farre of and beleved them and saluted them: and confessed that they were straungers and pilgrems on the erthe.
11:14They that saye soche thinges declare that they seke a coutre.
11:15Also yf they had bene myndfull of that countre from whence they came oute they had leasure to have returned agayne.
11:16But now they desyre a better that is to saye a hevenlye. Wherfore God is not ashamed of them even to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a citie.
11:17In fayth Abraham offered vp Isaac whe he was tempted and he offered him beinge his only begotten sonne which had receaved the promyses
11:18of who it was sayde in Isaac shall thy seed be called:
11:19for he cosidered that God was able to rayse vp agayne fro deeth. Wherfore receaved he him for an ensample.
11:20In fayth Isaac blessed Iacob and Esau concerninge thinges to come.
11:21By fayth Iacob when he was a dyinge blessed both the sonnes of Ioseph and bowed him selfe towarde the toppe of his cepter.
11:22By fayth Ioseph when he dyed remebred the departinge of the chyldren of Israel and gave commaundement of his bones.
11:23By fayth Moses when he was borne was hid thre monethes of his father and mother be cause they sawe he was a proper chylde: nether feared they the kynges commaundemet.
11:24By fayth Moses when he was great refused to be called ye sonne of Pharaos doughter
11:25and chose rather to suffre adversitie wt the people of God then to enioye the pleasurs of synne for a ceason
11:26and estemed the rebuke of Christ greater ryches then the treasure of Egypt. For he had a respect vnto ye rewarde.
11:27By fayth he forsoke Egypt and feared not the fearcenes of the kynge. For he endured even as he had sene him which is invisible.
11:28Thorow fayth he ordeyned the ester lambe and the effusion of bloud lest he that destroyed the fyrst borne shuld touche them.
11:29By fayth they passed thorow the reed see as by drye londe which when the Egypcians had assayed to do they were drouned.
11:30By fayth the walles of Ierico fell doune after they were copased about seven dayes.
11:31By fayth ye harlot Raab perisshed not with the vnbelevers whe she had receaved the spyes to lodgynge peaseably.
11:32And what shall I more saye ye tyme wold be to short for me to tell of Gedeo of Barach and of Samson and of Iephthae: also of David and Samuel and of the Prophetes:
11:33which thorowe fayth subdued kyngdomes wrought righteousnes obteyned the promyses stopped the mouthes of lyons
11:34queched the violence of fyre escaped the edge of the swearde of weake were made stroge waxed valient in fight turned to flyght the armyes of the alientes.
11:35And the wemen receaved their deed raysed to lyfe agayne. Other were racked and wolde not be delyvered that they myght receave a better resurreccion.
11:36Other tasted of mockynges and scourginginges morover of bondes and presonmet:
11:37were stoned were hewen a sunder were tepted were slayne with sweardes walked vppe and doune in shepes skynnes in gotes skynnes in nede tribulacio and vexacio
11:38which ye worlde was not worthy of: they wadred in wildernes in moutaynes in dennes and caves of the erth.
11:39And these all thorow fayth obtayned good reporte and receaved not the promes
11:40God provydinge a better thinge for vs that they with out vs shuld not be made parfecte.

 

11:1Faith is a sure confidence of thinges which are hoped for, and a certaynte of thinges which are not sene.
11:2By it ye Elders were well reported of.
11:3Thorow faith we vnderstonde, that the worlde and all the thinges which are sene, were made of naughte by the worde of God.
11:4By 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.
11:5By faith was Enoch take awaye, that he shulde not se death: and was not founde, because God had taken him awaye. For afore he was taken awaye, he had recorde that he pleased God.
11:6But 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.
11:7By 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.
11:8By 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.
11:9By 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:
11:10for he loked for a cite which hath a foundacion, whose buylder and maker is God.
11:11By 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.
11:12And 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.
11:13All 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.
11:14For they that saye soch thinges, declare, that they seke a naturall countre.
11:15And doutles yf they had bene myndefull off that countre from whence they came out, they had leysure to haue returned agayne.
11:16But 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.
11:17By faith Abraha offered vp Isaac, wha he was tempted, and gaue ouer his onely begotten sonne, in whom he had receaued the promyses,
11:18of whom it was sayde: In Isaac shal thy sede be called:
11:19For he considered, yt God was able to rayse vp agayne from the deed. Therfore receaued he him for an ensample.
11:20By faith Isaac blessed Iacob and Esau, concernynge thinges to come.

11:25and chose rather to suffre aduersite with the people of God, then to enioye ye pleasures of synne for a season:
11:26and estemed the rebuke of Christ greater riches, then the treasure of Egipte: for he had respecte vnto the rewarde.
11:27By 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.
11:28By faith he helde Easter, and the effusion of bloude, lest he which slewe the firstborne, shulde touche them.

11:32And 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,
11:33which thorow faith subdued kyngdomes, wroughte righteousnes, optayned ye promyses, stopped ye mouthes of lyos
11:34quenched 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,
11:35the wemen receaued their deed agayne from resurreccion. But other were racked, and accepted no delyueraunce, that they mighte optayne the resurreccion that better is.
11:36Other taisted of mockinges and scourginges, of bondes also and presonment:
11:37were 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,
11:38which (men) the worlde was not worthy of: they wandred aboute in wyldernesses, vpon mountaynes, in dennes and caues of the earth.
11:39And these all thorow faith optayned good reporte, and receaued not ye promes:
11:40because God had prouyded a better thinge for vs, that they without vs shulde not be made perfecte.
