Hebrews 11:13-16 These all died in faith, not having obtained the promised blessings, but they saw them and greeted them afar and confessed that they were strangers and foreigners in the land.

Riverside⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹³ These all died in faith, not having obtained the promised blessings, but they saw them and greeted them afar and confessed that they were strangers and foreigners in the land. ¹⁴ For those who say such things make it plain that they are seeking a fatherland. ¹⁵ And if they had been thinking of that land from which they came they would have had opportunity to return. ¹⁶ But now they desire a better land, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed of them — of being called their God; for he has prepared for them a city.
