Hebrews 11:1-10

JuliaSmith(i) 1 And faith is the foundation of things hoped for, the proof of things not seen. 2 For by this were the elders testified of. 3 By faith we perceive that the times were adjusted by the word of God, so that things seen have been born not of things brought to light. 4 By faith Abel brought near a greater sacrifice to God than Cain, by which he was testified of to be just, God testifying of his gifts; and by it he being dead yet speaks. 5 By faith Enoch was transferred not to see death; and was not found, because God had transferred him: for before his transferring he had been testified of, to have pleased God. 6 And without faith it is impossible to please: for he approaching to God must believe that he is, and is a remunerator to them seeking him out. 7 By faith Noah, having an intimation of the divine will of things not yet seen, being circumspect, prepared an ark for the salvation of his house; by which he condemned the world, and by faith became an heir of justice. 8 By faith Abraham, being called, listened, to go forth into the place which he was about to receive for an inheritance; and he came out, not knowing where he is coming. 9 By faith he dwelt in the land of promise, as a strange land, having dwelt in tents with Isaac and Jacob, co-heirs of the same promise: 10 For he awaited a city having foundations, whose artificer and maker is God.
