5 By faith Enoch was transferred not to see death; and was not found, because God had transferred him: for before his transferring he had been testified of, to have pleased God.
6 And without faith it is impossible to please: for he approaching to God must believe that he is, and is a remunerator to them seeking him out.

14 For they saying such things show clearly that they seek a country.
15 And truly if they remembered that from which they came out, they had time to have returned.

17 By faith Abraham had brought near Isaac, being tried: and he having received the promises brought near the only born,
18 To whom it was spoken, That in Isaac shall seed be called to thee:

34 Quenched the power of fire, escaped the mouth of the sword, were strengthened from weakness, were strong in war, turned away the armies of strangers.
35 Women received their dead from rising up: and others were beaten, not receiving redemption; that they might attain a better resurrection.
36 And others received trial of jestings and scourges, and further, of bonds and imprisonment:
37 They were stoned, they were cut by sawing, they were tried, they died by the slaughter of the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being in want, pressed, treated ill;
38 (Of whom the world was not worthy:) wandering about in solitary places, and mountains, and caves, and holes of the earth.
