| Hebrews 11:6 | But without faith it is impossible to please God. For he that cometh to God, must believe that he is, and is a rewarder to them that seek him. | And without faith it is not possible to be well-pleasing to him, for it is necessary for anyone who comes to God to have the belief that God is, and that he is a rewarder of all those who make a serious search for him. | But without faith [it is] impossible to please [him]. For he that draws near to God must believe that he is, and [that] he is a rewarder of them who seek him out. |
