Hebrews 11
1 Fayth is a sure confidence of thynges which are hoped for and a certayntie of thynges which are not sene.
est autem fides sperandorum substantia rerum argumentum non parentum
2 By it ye elders were well reported of.
in hac enim testimonium consecuti sunt senes
3 Thorow fayth we vnderstonde that the worlde was ordeyned by the worde of god: and that thynges which are sene were made of thynges which are not sene. (aiōn g165)
fide intellegimus aptata esse saecula verbo Dei ut ex invisibilibus visibilia fierent (aiōn g165)
4 By fayth Abell offered vnto god a more plenteous sacrifice then Cayn: by which he obteyned witnes that he was righteous god testifyinge of his gyftes: by which also he beynge deed yet speaketh.
fide plurimam hostiam Abel quam Cain obtulit Deo per quam testimonium consecutus est esse iustus testimonium perhibente muneribus eius Deo et per illam defunctus adhuc loquitur
5 By fayth was Enoch traslated yt he shuld not se deeth: nether was he founde: for God had taken him awaye. Before he was taken awaye he was reported of that he had pleased God:
fide Enoch translatus est ne videret mortem et non inveniebatur quia transtulit illum Deus ante translationem enim testimonium habebat placuisse Deo
6 but with out fayth it is vnpossible to please him. For he that commeth to God must beleve that God is and that he is a rewarder of them that seke him.
sine fide autem inpossibile placere credere enim oportet accedentem ad Deum quia est et inquirentibus se remunerator fit
7 By fayth Noe honored God after that he was warned of thinges which were not sene and prepared the arcke to the savinge of his houssholde thorowe the which arcke he condempned the worlde and became heyre of the rightewesnes which commeth by fayth.
fide Noe responso accepto de his quae adhuc non videbantur metuens aptavit arcam in salutem domus suae per quam damnavit mundum et iustitiae quae per fidem est heres est institutus
8 By fayth Abraha whe he was called obeyed to goo out into a place which he shuld afterwarde receave to inheritaunce and he wet out not knowynge whether he shuld goo.
fide qui vocatur Abraham oboedivit in locum exire quem accepturus erat in hereditatem et exiit nesciens quo iret
9 By fayth he removed into the londe yt was promysed him as into a straunge countre and dwelt in tabernacles: and so dyd Isaac and Iacob heyres with him of the same promes.
fide moratus est in terra repromissionis tamquam in aliena in casulis habitando cum Isaac et Iacob coheredibus repromissionis eiusdem
10 For he loked for a citie havinge a foundacio whose bylder and maker is God.
expectabat enim fundamenta habentem civitatem cuius artifex et conditor Deus
11 Thorow fayth Sara also receaved stregth to be with chylde and was delivered of a chylde when she was past age because she iudged him faythfull which had promysed.
fide et ipsa Sarra sterilis virtutem in conceptionem seminis accepit etiam praeter tempus aetatis quoniam fidelem credidit esse qui promiserat
12 And therfore spronge therof one (and of one which was as good as deed) so many in multitude as the starres of ye skye and as the sond of the see shore which is innumerable.
propter quod et ab uno orti sunt et haec emortuo tamquam sidera caeli in multitudinem et sicut harena quae est ad oram maris innumerabilis
13 And they all dyed in fayth and receaved not the promyses: but sawe them a farre of and beleved them and saluted them: and confessed that they were straungers and pilgrems on the erthe.
iuxta fidem defuncti sunt omnes isti non acceptis repromissionibus sed a longe eas aspicientes et salutantes et confitentes quia peregrini et hospites sunt supra terram
14 They that saye soche thinges declare that they seke a coutre.
qui enim haec dicunt significant se patriam inquirere
15 Also yf they had bene myndfull of that countre from whence they came oute they had leasure to have returned agayne.
et si quidem illius meminissent de qua exierunt habebant utique tempus revertendi
16 But now they desyre a better that is to saye a hevenlye. Wherfore God is not ashamed of them even to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a citie.
nunc autem meliorem appetunt id est caelestem ideo non confunditur Deus vocari Deus eorum paravit enim illis civitatem
17 In fayth Abraham offered vp Isaac whe he was tempted and he offered him beinge his only begotten sonne which had receaved the promyses
fide obtulit Abraham Isaac cum temptaretur et unigenitum offerebat qui susceperat repromissiones
18 of who it was sayde in Isaac shall thy seed be called:
ad quem dictum est quia in Isaac vocabitur tibi semen
19 for he cosidered that God was able to rayse vp agayne fro deeth. Wherfore receaved he him for an ensample.
arbitrans quia et a mortuis suscitare potens est Deus unde eum et in parabola accepit
20 In fayth Isaac blessed Iacob and Esau concerninge thinges to come.
fide et de futuris benedixit Isaac Iacob et Esau
21 By fayth Iacob when he was a dyinge blessed both the sonnes of Ioseph and bowed him selfe towarde the toppe of his cepter.
fide Iacob moriens singulis filiorum Ioseph benedixit et adoravit fastigium virgae eius
22 By fayth Ioseph when he dyed remebred the departinge of the chyldren of Israel and gave commaundement of his bones.
fide Ioseph moriens de profectione filiorum Israhel memoratus est et de ossibus suis mandavit
23 By fayth Moses when he was borne was hid thre monethes of his father and mother be cause they sawe he was a proper chylde: nether feared they the kynges commaundemet.
fide Moses natus occultatus est mensibus tribus a parentibus suis eo quod vidissent elegantem infantem et non timuerunt regis edictum
24 By fayth Moses when he was great refused to be called ye sonne of Pharaos doughter
fide Moses grandis factus negavit se esse filium filiae Pharaonis
25 and chose rather to suffre adversitie wt the people of God then to enioye the pleasurs of synne for a ceason
magis eligens adfligi cum populo Dei quam temporalis peccati habere iucunditatem
26 and estemed the rebuke of Christ greater ryches then the treasure of Egypt. For he had a respect vnto ye rewarde.
maiores divitias aestimans thesauro Aegyptiorum inproperium Christi aspiciebat enim in remunerationem
27 By fayth he forsoke Egypt and feared not the fearcenes of the kynge. For he endured even as he had sene him which is invisible.
fide reliquit Aegyptum non veritus animositatem regis invisibilem enim tamquam videns sustinuit
28 Thorow fayth he ordeyned the ester lambe and the effusion of bloud lest he that destroyed the fyrst borne shuld touche them.
fide celebravit pascha et sanguinis effusionem ne qui vastabat primitiva tangeret eos
29 By fayth they passed thorow the reed see as by drye londe which when the Egypcians had assayed to do they were drouned.
fide transierunt mare Rubrum tamquam per aridam terram quod experti Aegyptii devorati sunt
30 By fayth the walles of Ierico fell doune after they were copased about seven dayes.
fide muri Hiericho ruerunt circuiti dierum septem
31 By fayth ye harlot Raab perisshed not with the vnbelevers whe she had receaved the spyes to lodgynge peaseably.
fide Raab meretrix non periit cum incredulis excipiens exploratores cum pace
32 And what shall I more saye ye tyme wold be to short for me to tell of Gedeo of Barach and of Samson and of Iephthae: also of David and Samuel and of the Prophetes:
et quid adhuc dicam deficiet enim me tempus enarrantem de Gedeon Barac Samson Iepthae David et Samuhel et prophetis
33 which thorowe fayth subdued kyngdomes wrought righteousnes obteyned the promyses stopped the mouthes of lyons
qui per fidem devicerunt regna operati sunt iustitiam adepti sunt repromissiones obturaverunt ora leonum
34 queched the violence of fyre escaped the edge of the swearde of weake were made stroge waxed valient in fight turned to flyght the armyes of the alientes.
extinxerunt impetum ignis effugerunt aciem gladii convaluerunt de infirmitate fortes facti sunt in bello castra verterunt exterorum
35 And the wemen receaved their deed raysed to lyfe agayne. Other were racked and wolde not be delyvered that they myght receave a better resurreccion.
acceperunt mulieres de resurrectione mortuos suos alii autem distenti sunt non suscipientes redemptionem ut meliorem invenirent resurrectionem
36 Other tasted of mockynges and scourginginges morover of bondes and presonmet:
alii vero ludibria et verbera experti insuper et vincula et carceres
37 were stoned were hewen a sunder were tepted were slayne with sweardes walked vppe and doune in shepes skynnes in gotes skynnes in nede tribulacio and vexacio
lapidati sunt secti sunt temptati sunt in occisione gladii mortui sunt circumierunt in melotis in pellibus caprinis egentes angustiati adflicti
38 which ye worlde was not worthy of: they wadred in wildernes in moutaynes in dennes and caves of the erth.
quibus dignus non erat mundus in solitudinibus errantes et montibus et speluncis et in cavernis terrae
39 And these all thorow fayth obtayned good reporte and receaved not the promes
et hii omnes testimonio fidei probati non acceperunt repromissionem
40 God provydinge a better thinge for vs that they with out vs shuld not be made parfecte.
Deo pro nobis melius aliquid providente ut ne sine nobis consummarentur
