Hebrews 11:13-16 In faith, all these died––not bearing away the promises, but, from afar, beholding and saluting them, and confessing that, strangers and sojourners, were they upon the land.

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹³ In faith, all these died––not bearing away the promises, but, from afar, beholding and saluting them, and confessing that, strangers and sojourners, were they upon the land. ¹⁴ For, they who such things as these are saying, make it clear that, of a paternal home they are in quest; ¹⁵ And, if indeed of that they had been mindful, from which they had come out, they might, in that case, have had an opportunity, to return; ¹⁶ But, now, after a better one, are they reaching, that is, a heavenly; wherefore God is not ashamed of them, to be invoked as, their God,––for he hath prepared for them, a city.
