Hebrews 11:8-14

8By faith aAbraham obeyed when he was called to go out to a place bthat he was to receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going. 9By faith he went to live in cthe land of promise, as in a foreign land, dliving in tents ewith Isaac and Jacob, heirs with him of the same promise. 10For he was looking forward to fthe city that has gfoundations, hwhose designer and builder is God. 11By faith iSarah herself received power to conceive, even when she was past the age, since she considered jhim faithful who had promised. 12Therefore from one man, and khim as good as dead, were born descendants las many as the stars of heaven and as many as the innumerable grains of sand by the seashore.

13These all died in faith, mnot having received the things promised, but nhaving seen them and greeted them from afar, and ohaving acknowledged that they were pstrangers and exiles on the earth. 14For people who speak thus make it clear that they are seeking a homeland.
