8 By faith Abraham, when he was called, obeyed, and departed to the place which he was to receive for an inheritance: and he departed, while he knew not whither he was going.
9 By faith, he became a resident in the land that was promised him, as in a foreign land; and abode in tents, with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise.
10 For he looked for the city that hath a foundation, of which the builder and maker is God.
11 By faith, Sarah also, who was barren, acquired energy to receive seed; and, out of the time of her years, she brought forth; because she firmly believed, that he was faithful who had promised her.
12 Therefore, from one man failing through age, numbers were born, like the stars in the heavens, and like the sand on the shore of the sea which is innumerable.
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.
17 By faith Abraham, in his trial, offered up Isaac; and he laid on the altar his only son, whom he had received by promise.
18 For it had been said to him, In Isaac shall thy seed be called.
19 And he reasoned with himself, that God was able even to raise him from the dead: and therefore, in the similitude of a resurrection, he was restored to him.
20 By faith in what was to be, Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau.
21 By faith Jacob, when dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and bowed himself on the top of his staff.
22 By faith Joseph, when dying, was mindful of the departure of the children of Israel, and gave direction concerning his bones.
23 By faith the parents of Moses, after he was born, hid him three months; because they saw he was a goodly child; and they were not deterred by the command of the king.
24 By faith Moses, when be became a man, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter.
25 And he chose to be in affliction with the people of God, and not to live luxuriously in sin for a short season:
26 and he esteemed the reproach of the Messiah a greater treasure than the hoarded riches of Egypt; for he looked upon the recompense of reward.
27 By faith, he left Egypt, and was not terrified by the wrath of the king; and he continued to hope, just as if he saw the invisible God.
28 By faith, they kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, that he who destroyed the first-born might not approach them.
29 By faith, they passed the Red Sea, as on dry land; and in it the Egyptians were swallowed up, when they dared to enter it.
30 By faith, the walls of Jericho fell down, when they had been encompassed seven days.
31 By faith Rahab, the harlot, perished not with them who believed not, when she received the spies in peace.
32 What more shall I say? For I have little time to tell of Gideon, and of Barak, and of Sampson, and of Jephtha, and of David, and of Samuel, and of the other prophets:
