Hebrews 11:8-12

Thomson(i) 8 By faith Abraham, when called, shewed obedience by going to the place which he was to receive for an inheritance, and set out on his journey not knowing whither he was going. 9 By faith he sojourned in the land of promise as in a strange land, and dwelt in tents with Isaak and Jacob, who were coheirs with him of the same promise. 10 For he expected that city which hath foundations, whose architect and founder is God. 11 By faith Sarah also received strength for conception, and was delivered of a son when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised. 12 Therefore there sprang even from one, and him dead as to these things, a posterity like the stars of heaven for multitude, and like the sand on the sea shore which is innumerable.
