Hebrews 11:9-16 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.

Murdock⁽ⁱ⁾ 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.
