| Hebrews 11:1 | Now faith is a well-grounded assurance of that for which we hope, and a conviction of the reality of things which we do not see. | And faith is of things hoped for a confidence, of matters not seen a conviction, | Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, and the sign that the things not seen are true. |

| Hebrews 11:3 | Through faith we understand that the worlds came into being, and still exist, at the command of God, so that what is seen does not owe its existence to that which is visible. | by faith we understand the ages to have been prepared by a saying of God, in regard to the things seen not having come out of things appearing; | By faith it is clear to us that the order of events was fixed by the word of God, so that what is seen has not been made from things which only seem to be. |
| Hebrews 11:4 | Through faith Abel offered to God a more acceptable sacrifice than Cain did, and through this faith he obtained testimony that he was righteous, God giving the testimony by accepting his gifts; and through it, though he is dead, he still speaks. | by faith a better sacrifice did Abel offer to God than Cain, through which he was testified to be righteous, God testifying of his gifts, and through it, he being dead, doth yet speak. | By faith Abel made a better offering to God than Cain, and he had witness through it of his righteousness, God giving his approval of his offering: and his voice still comes to us through it though he is dead. |

| Hebrews 11:6 | But where there is no faith it is impossible truly to please Him; for the man who draws near to God must believe that there is a God and that He proves Himself a rewarder of those who earnestly try to find Him. | and apart from faith it is impossible to please well, for it behoveth him who is coming to God to believe that He is, and to those seeking Him He becometh a rewarder. | 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. |

| Hebrews 11:13 | All these died in the possession of faith. They had not received the promised blessings, but had seen them from a distance and had greeted them, and had acknowledged themselves to be foreigners and strangers here on earth; | In faith died all these, not having received the promises, but from afar having seen them, and having been persuaded, and having saluted [them], and having confessed that strangers and sojourners they are upon the earth, | All these came to their end in faith, not having had the heritage; but having seen it with delight far away, they gave witness that they were wanderers and not of the earth. |
