King James Version with Apocrypha
Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
1εστιν δε πιστισ ελπιζομενων υποστασισ πραγματων ελεγχοσ ου βλεπομενων
2For by it the elders obtained a good report.
2εν ταυτη γαρ εμαρτυρηθησαν οι πρεσβυτεροι
3Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
3πιστει νοουμεν κατηρτισθαι τουσ αιωνασ ρηματι θεου εισ το μη εκ φαινομενων τα βλεπομενα γεγονεναι
4By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.
4πιστει πλειονα θυσιαν αβελ παρα καιν προσηνεγκεν τω θεω δι ησ εμαρτυρηθη ειναι δικαιοσ μαρτυρουντοσ επι τοισ δωροισ αυτου του θεου και δι αυτησ αποθανων ετι λαλειται
5By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
5πιστει ενωχ μετετεθη του μη ιδειν θανατον και ουχ ευρισκετο διοτι μετεθηκεν αυτον ο θεοσ προ γαρ τησ μεταθεσεωσ αυτου μεμαρτυρηται ευηρεστηκεναι τω θεω
6But without faith it is impossible to please him : for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
6χωρισ δε πιστεωσ αδυνατον ευαρεστησαι πιστευσαι γαρ δει τον προσερχομενον τω θεω οτι εστιν και τοισ εκζητουσιν αυτον μισθαποδοτησ γινεται
7By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.
7πιστει χρηματισθεισ νωε περι των μηδεπω βλεπομενων ευλαβηθεισ κατεσκευασεν κιβωτον εισ σωτηριαν του οικου αυτου δι ησ κατεκρινεν τον κοσμον και τησ κατα πιστιν δικαιοσυνησ εγενετο κληρονομοσ
8By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.
8πιστει καλουμενοσ αβρααμ υπηκουσεν εξελθειν εισ τον τοπον ον ημελλεν λαμβανειν εισ κληρονομιαν και εξηλθεν μη επισταμενοσ που ερχεται
9By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:
9πιστει παρωκησεν εισ γην τησ επαγγελιασ ωσ αλλοτριαν εν σκηναισ κατοικησασ μετα ισαακ και ιακωβ των συγκληρονομων τησ επαγγελιασ τησ αυτησ
10For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
10εξεδεχετο γαρ την τουσ θεμελιουσ εχουσαν πολιν ησ τεχνιτησ και δημιουργοσ ο θεοσ
11Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised.
11πιστει και αυτη σαρρα δυναμιν εισ καταβολην σπερματοσ ελαβεν και παρα καιρον ηλικιασ ετεκεν επει πιστον ηγησατο τον επαγγειλαμενον
12Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.
12διο και αφ ενοσ εγεννηθησαν και ταυτα νενεκρωμενου καθωσ τα αστρα του ουρανου τω πληθει και ωσ η αμμοσ η παρα το χειλοσ τησ θαλασσησ η αναριθμητοσ
13These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them , and embraced them , and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
13κατα πιστιν απεθανον ουτοι παντεσ μη λαβοντεσ τασ επαγγελιασ αλλα πορρωθεν αυτασ ιδοντεσ και ασπασαμενοι και ομολογησαντεσ οτι ξενοι και παρεπιδημοι εισιν επι τησ γησ
14For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country.
14οι γαρ τοιαυτα λεγοντεσ εμφανιζουσιν οτι πατριδα επιζητουσιν
15And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned.
15και ει μεν εκεινησ εμνημονευον αφ ησ εξηλθον ειχον αν καιρον ανακαμψαι
16But now they desire a better country , that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.
16νυν δε κρειττονοσ ορεγονται τουτ εστιν επουρανιου διο ουκ επαισχυνεται αυτουσ ο θεοσ θεοσ επικαλεισθαι αυτων ητοιμασεν γαρ αυτοισ πολιν
17By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son ,
17πιστει προσενηνοχεν αβρααμ τον ισαακ πειραζομενοσ και τον μονογενη προσεφερεν ο τασ επαγγελιασ αναδεξαμενοσ
18Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called:
18προσ ον ελαληθη οτι εν ισαακ κληθησεται σοι σπερμα
19Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.
19λογισαμενοσ οτι και εκ νεκρων εγειρειν δυνατοσ ο θεοσ οθεν αυτον και εν παραβολη εκομισατο
20By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.
20πιστει περι μελλοντων ευλογησεν ισαακ τον ιακωβ και τον ησαυ
21By faith Jacob, when he was a dying, blessed both the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff.
21πιστει ιακωβ αποθνησκων εκαστον των υιων ιωσηφ ευλογησεν και προσεκυνησεν επι το ακρον τησ ραβδου αυτου
22By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones.
22πιστει ιωσηφ τελευτων περι τησ εξοδου των υιων ισραηλ εμνημονευσεν και περι των οστεων αυτου ενετειλατο
23By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months of his parents, because they saw he was a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king’s commandment.
23πιστει μωυσησ γεννηθεισ εκρυβη τριμηνον υπο των πατερων αυτου διοτι ειδον αστειον το παιδιον και ουκ εφοβηθησαν το διαταγμα του βασιλεωσ
24By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter;
24πιστει μωυσησ μεγασ γενομενοσ ηρνησατο λεγεσθαι υιοσ θυγατροσ φαραω
25Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;
25μαλλον ελομενοσ συγκακουχεισθαι τω λαω του θεου η προσκαιρον εχειν αμαρτιασ απολαυσιν
26Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.
26μειζονα πλουτον ηγησαμενοσ των αιγυπτου θησαυρων τον ονειδισμον του χριστου απεβλεπεν γαρ εισ την μισθαποδοσιαν
27By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
27πιστει κατελιπεν αιγυπτον μη φοβηθεισ τον θυμον του βασιλεωσ τον γαρ αορατον ωσ ορων εκαρτερησεν
28Through faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them.
28πιστει πεποιηκεν το πασχα και την προσχυσιν του αιματοσ ινα μη ο ολοθρευων τα πρωτοτοκα θιγη αυτων
29By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land : which the Egyptians assaying to do were drowned.
29πιστει διεβησαν την ερυθραν θαλασσαν ωσ δια ξηρασ ησ πειραν λαβοντεσ οι αιγυπτιοι κατεποθησαν
30By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they were compassed about seven days.
30πιστει τα τειχη ιεριχω επεσεν κυκλωθεντα επι επτα ημερασ
31By faith the harlot Rahab perished not with them that believed not, when she had received the spies with peace.
31πιστει ρααβ η πορνη ου συναπωλετο τοισ απειθησασιν δεξαμενη τουσ κατασκοπουσ μετ ειρηνησ
32And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets:
32και τι ετι λεγω επιλειψει γαρ με διηγουμενον ο χρονοσ περι γεδεων βαρακ τε και σαμψων και ιεφθαε δαυιδ τε και σαμουηλ και των προφητων
33Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
33οι δια πιστεωσ κατηγωνισαντο βασιλειασ ειργασαντο δικαιοσυνην επετυχον επαγγελιων εφραξαν στοματα λεοντων
34Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens.
34εσβεσαν δυναμιν πυροσ εφυγον στοματα μαχαιρασ ενεδυναμωθησαν απο ασθενειασ εγενηθησαν ισχυροι εν πολεμω παρεμβολασ εκλιναν αλλοτριων
35Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:
35ελαβον γυναικεσ εξ αναστασεωσ τουσ νεκρουσ αυτων αλλοι δε ετυμπανισθησαν ου προσδεξαμενοι την απολυτρωσιν ινα κρειττονοσ αναστασεωσ τυχωσιν
36And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment:
36ετεροι δε εμπαιγμων και μαστιγων πειραν ελαβον ετι δε δεσμων και φυλακησ
37They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented;
37ελιθασθησαν επρισθησαν επειρασθησαν εν φονω μαχαιρασ απεθανον περιηλθον εν μηλωταισ εν αιγειοισ δερμασιν υστερουμενοι θλιβομενοι κακουχουμενοι
38(Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.
38ων ουκ ην αξιοσ ο κοσμοσ εν ερημιαισ πλανωμενοι και ορεσιν και σπηλαιοισ και ταισ οπαισ τησ γησ
39And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise:
39και ουτοι παντεσ μαρτυρηθεντεσ δια τησ πιστεωσ ουκ εκομισαντο την επαγγελιαν
40God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.
40του θεου περι ημων κρειττον τι προβλεψαμενου ινα μη χωρισ ημων τελειωθωσιν
