1Now faith is the assurance of what we hope for and the certainty of what we do not see.
1OR la fede è una sussistenza delle cose che si sperano, ed una dimostrazione delle cose che non si veggono.
2This is why the ancients were commended.
2Perciocchè per essa fu resa testimonianza agli antichi.
3By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.
3Per fede intendiamo che i secoli sono stati composti per la parola di Dio; sì che le cose che si vedono non sono state fatte di cose apparenti.
4By faith Abel offered God a better sacrifice than Cain did. By faith he was commended as righteous when God gave approval to his gifts. And by faith he still speaks, even though he is dead.
4Per fede Abele offerse a Dio sacrificio più eccellente che Caino; per la quale fu testimoniato ch'egli era giusto, rendendo Iddio testimonianza delle sue offerte; e per essa, dopo esser morto, parla ancora.
5By faith Enoch was taken up so that he did not see death: “He could not be found, because God had taken him away.” For before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God.
5Per fede Enoc fu trasportato, per non veder la morte, e non fu trovato; perciocchè Iddio l'avea trasportato; poichè, avanti ch'egli fosse trasportato, fu di lui testimoniato ch'egli era piaciuto a Dio.
6And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who approaches Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.
6Ora, senza fede, è impossibile di piacer gli ; perciocchè colui che si accosta a Dio deve credere ch'egli è, e che egli è premiatore di coloro che lo ricercano.
7By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in godly fear built an ark to save his family. By faith he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness that comes by faith.
7Per fede Noè, ammonito per oracolo delle cose che non si vedevano ancora, avendo temuto, fabbricò, per la salvazione della sua famiglia, l'arca, per la quale egli condannò il mondo, e fu fatto erede della giustizia ch'è secondo la fede.
8By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, without knowing where he was going.
8Per fede Abrahamo, essendo chiamato, ubbidì, per andarsene al luogo che egli avea da ricevere in eredità; e partì, non sapendo dove si andasse.
9By faith he dwelt in the promised land as a stranger in a foreign country. He lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise.
9Per fede Abrahamo dimorò nel paese della promessa, come in paese strano, abitando in tende, con Isacco, e Giacobbe, coeredi della stessa promessa.
10For he was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God.
10Perciocchè egli aspettava la città che ha i fondamenti, e il cui architetto e fabbricatore è Iddio.
11By faith Sarah, even though she was barren and beyond the proper age, was enabled to conceive a child, because she considered Him faithful who had promised.
11Per fede ancora Sara stessa, essendo sterile, ricevette forza da concepir seme, e partorì fuor d'età; perciocchè reputò fedele colui che avea fatta la promessa.
12And so from one man, and he as good as dead, came descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as countless as the sand on the seashore.
12Perciò ancora da uno, e quello già ammortato, son nati discendenti , in moltitudine come le stelle del cielo, e come le rena innumerabile che è lungo il lito del mare.
13All these people died in faith, without having received the things they were promised. However, they saw them and welcomed them from afar. And they acknowledged that they were strangers and exiles on the earth.
13In fede son morti tutti costoro, non avendo ricevute le cose promesse; ma, avendole vedute di lontano, e credutele, e salutatele; ed avendo confessato ch'erano forestieri, e pellegrini sopra la terra.
14Now those who say such things show that they are seeking a country of their own.
14Poichè coloro che dicono tali cose dimostrano che cercano una patria.
15If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return.
15Che se pur si ricordavano di quella onde erano usciti, certo avean tempo da ritornar vi .
16Instead, they were longing for a better country, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.
16Ma ora ne desiderano una migliore, cioè, la celeste; perciò, Iddio non si vergogna di loro, d'esser chiamato lor Dio; poichè egli ha loro preparata una città.
17By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac on the altar. He who had received the promises was ready to offer his one and only son,
17Per fede Abrahamo, essendo provato, offerse Isacco; e colui che avea ricevute le promesse offerse il suo unigenito.
18even though God had said to him, “Through Isaac your offspring will be reckoned.”
18Egli, dico , a cui era stato detto: In Isacco ti sarà nominata progenie.
19Abraham reasoned that God could raise the dead, and in a sense, he did receive Isaac back from death.
19Avendo fatta ragione che Iddio era potente eziandio da suscitar lo da' morti; onde ancora per similitudine lo ricoverò.
20By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning the future.
20Per fede Isacco benedisse Giacobbe ed Esaù, intorno a cose future.
21By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of Joseph’s sons and worshiped as he leaned on the top of his staff.
21Per fede Giacobbe, morendo, benedisse ciascuno de' figliuoli di Giuseppe; e adorò, appoggiato sopra la sommità del suo bastone.
22By faith Joseph, when his end was near, spoke about the exodus of the Israelites and gave instructions about his bones.
22Per fede Giuseppe, trapassando, fece menzione dell'uscita de' figliuoli d'Israele, e diede ordine intorno alle sue ossa.
23By faith Moses’ parents hid him for three months after his birth, because they saw that he was a beautiful child, and they were unafraid of the king’s edict.
23Per fede Mosè, essendo nato, fu nascosto da suo padre e da sua madre, lo spazio di tre mesi; perciocchè vedevano il fanciullo bello; e non temettero il comandamento del re.
24By faith Moses, when he was grown, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter.
24Per fede Mosè, essendo divenuto grande, rifiutò d'esser chiamato figliuolo della figliuola di Faraone;
25He chose to suffer oppression with God’s people rather than to experience the fleeting enjoyment of sin.
25eleggendo innanzi d'essere afflitto col popol di Dio, che d'aver per un breve tempo godimento di peccato;
26He valued disgrace for Christ above the treasures of Egypt, for he was looking ahead to his reward.
26avendo reputato il vituperio di Cristo ricchezza maggiore de' tesori di Egitto; perciocchè egli riguardava alla rimunerazione.
27By faith Moses left Egypt, not fearing the king’s anger; he persevered because he saw Him who is invisible.
27Per fede lasciò l'Egitto, non avendo temuta l'ira del re; perciocchè egli stette costante, come veggendo l'invisibile.
28By faith he kept the Passover and the sprinkling of blood, so that the destroyer of the firstborn would not touch Israel’s own firstborn.
28Per fede fece la pasqua, e lo spruzzamento del sangue; acciocchè colui che distruggeva i primogeniti non toccasse gli Ebrei .
29By faith the people passed through the Red Sea as on dry land; but when the Egyptians tried to follow, they were drowned.
29Per fede passarono il Mar rosso, come per l'asciutto; il che tentando fare gli Egizi, furono abissati.
30By faith the walls of Jericho fell, after the people had marched around them for seven days.
30Per fede caddero le mura di Gerico, essendo state circuite per sette giorni.
31By faith the prostitute Rahab, because she welcomed the spies in peace, did not perish with those who were disobedient.
31Per fede Raab, la meretrice, avendo accolte le spie in pace, non perì con gli increduli.
32And what more shall I say? Time will not allow me to tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel, and the prophets,
32E che dirò io di più? poichè il tempo mi verrebbe meno, se imprendessi a raccontar di Gedeone, e di Barac, e di Sansone, e di Iefte, e di Davide, e di Samuele, e de' profeti.
33who through faith conquered kingdoms, administered justice, and gained what was promised; who shut the mouths of lions,
33I quali per fede vinsero regni, operarono giustizia, ottennero promesse, turarono le gole de' leoni,
34quenched the raging fire, and escaped the edge of the sword; who gained strength from weakness, became mighty in battle, and put foreign armies to flight.
34spensero la forza del fuoco, scamparono i tagli delle spade, guarirono d'infermità, divennero forti in guerra, misero in fuga i campi degli stranieri.
35Women received back their dead, raised to life again. Others were tortured and refused their release, so that they might gain a better resurrection.
35Le donne ricuperarono per risurrezione i lor morti; ed altri furon fatti morire di battiture, non avendo accettata la liberazione, per ottenere una migliore risurrezione.
36Still others endured mocking and flogging, and even chains and imprisonment.
36Altri ancora provarono scherni e flagelli; ed anche legami e prigione.
37They were stoned, they were sawed in two, they were put to death by the sword. They went around in sheepskins and goatskins, destitute, oppressed, and mistreated.
37Furon lapidati, furon segati, furon tentati; morirono uccisi con la spada, andarono attorno in pelli di pecore e di capre; bisognosi, afflitti,
38The world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains, and hid in caves and holes in the ground.
38maltrattati (de' quali non era degno il mondo), erranti in deserti, e monti, e spelonche, e nelle grotte della terra.
39These were all commended for their faith, yet they did not receive what was promised.
39E pur tutti costoro, alla cui fede la scrittura rende testimonianza, non ottennero la promessa.
40God had planned something better for us, so that together with us they would be made perfect.
40Avendo Iddio provveduto qualche cosa di meglio per noi, acciocchè non pervenissero al compimento senza noi.
