Rotherham(i)
10 For he was awaiting the city having foundations, whose architect and builder is, God.
11 By faith, even Sarah herself, received power for founding a seed, even beyond the season of life’s prime,––seeing that, faithful, she reckoned, him that had promised;
12 Wherefore, even from one, were born, and, as to these things, one who had become dead,––like the stars of the heaven, for multitude, and as the sand that is by the lip of the sea, that cannot be numbered.
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.
