Hebrews 11:13-16 All these died in faith, and received not their promise; but they saw it afar off, and rejoiced in it; and they confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.

Murdock⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹³ All these died in faith, and received not their promise; but they saw it afar off, and rejoiced in it; and they confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. ¹⁴ Now they who say thus, show that they seek a city. ¹⁵ But if they had been seeking that city from which they came out, they had opportunity to return again and go to it. ¹⁶ But now it is manifest that they longed for a better city than that, namely, for that which is in heaven. Therefore God did not refuse to be called their God; for he prepared for them the city.
