58:011:010 For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder
           and maker is God.

58:011:011 Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive
           seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age,
           because she judged him faithful who had promised.

58:011:012 Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead,
           so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand
           which is by the sea shore innumerable.

58:011:013 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but
           having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and
           embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and
           pilgrims on the earth.

58:011:014 For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a
           country.

58:011:015 And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from
           whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have
           returned.

58:011:016 But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: 
           wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God:  for he
           hath prepared for them a city.

58:011:017 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac:  and he
           that had received the promises offered up his only begotten
           son,

58:011:018 Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called: 

58:011:019 Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the
           dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.

58:011:020 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to
           come.

58:011:021 By faith Jacob, when he was a dying, blessed both the sons of
           Joseph; and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff.

58:011:022 By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing
           of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his
           bones.

58:011:023 By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months of his
           parents, because they saw he was a proper child; and they were
           not afraid of the king’s commandment.

58:011:024 By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be
           called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter;

58:011:025 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God,
           than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;

58:011:026 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the
           treasures in Egypt:  for he had respect unto the recompence of
           the reward.

58:011:027 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: 
           for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
