Hebrews 11:13-16

Mace(i) 13 These all died in faith, without receiving what was promised, having only a distant view of what they eagerly expected, professing to live as strangers and pilgrims in the land. 14 for they. that make such a declaration, show plainly that they seek some other country. 15 and truly, if that had been in their view, they might have had an opportunity of returning to the place from whence they came. 16 they desired therefore a better, that is, an heavenly country: so that God is very justly stiled their God: for he had appointed a city for them.
