13 All these died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them from afar off and embraced [them], and confessed that they were strangers and sojourners on the earth.
14 For they who say such things shew clearly that they seek [their] country.
15 And if they had called to mind that from whence they went out, they had had opportunity to have returned;
16 but now they seek a better, that is, a heavenly; wherefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God; for he has prepared for them a city.
17 By faith Abraham, [when] tried, offered up Isaac, and he who had received to himself the promises offered up his only begotten [son],
18 as to whom it had been said, In Isaac shall thy seed be called:
19 counting that God [was] able to raise [him] even from among [the] dead, whence also he received him in a figure.
20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.
21 By faith Jacob [when] dying blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and worshipped on the top of his staff.
22 By faith Joseph [when] dying called to mind the going forth of the sons of Israel, and gave commandment concerning his bones.
23 By faith Moses, being born, was hid three months by his parents, because they saw the child beautiful; and they did not fear the injunction of the king.
24 By faith Moses, when he had become great, refused to be called son of Pharaoh`s daughter;
25 choosing rather to suffer affliction along with the people of God than to have [the] temporary pleasure of sin;
26 esteeming the reproach of the Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt, for he had respect to the recompense.
27 By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he persevered, as seeing him who is invisible.
