Chapter 11
1 Vera je, pak, tvrdo čekanje onog čemu se nadamo, i dokazivanje onog što ne vidimo.
2 Jer u njoj stari dobiše svedočanstvo.
3 Verom poznajemo da je svet rečju Božjom svršen, da je sve što vidimo iz ništa postalo.
4 Verom prinese Avelj Bogu veću žrtvu nego Kain, kroz koju dobi svedočanstvo da je pravednik, kad Bog posvedoči za dare njegove; i kroz nju on mrtav još govori.
5 Verom bi Enoh prenesen da ne vidi smrt; i ne nađe se, jer ga Bog premesti, jer pre nego ga premesti, dobi svedočanstvo da ugodi Bogu.
6 A bez vere nije moguće ugoditi Bogu; jer onaj koji hoće da dođe k Bogu, valja da veruje da ima Bog i da plaća onima koji Ga traže.
7 Verom Noje primivši zapovest i pobojavši se onog što još ne vide, načini kovčeg za spasenje doma svog, kojim osudi sav svet, i posta naslednik pravde po veri.
8 Verom posluša Avraam kad bi pozvan da iziđe u zemlju koju htede da primi u nasledstvo, i iziđe ne znajući kuda ide.
9 Verom dođe Avraam u zemlju obećanu, kao u tuđu, i u kolibama življaše s Isakom i s Jakovom, sunaslednicima obećanja tog.
10 Jer čekaše grad koji ima temelje, kome je zidar i Tvorac Bog.
11 Verom i sama Sara nerotkinja primi silu da zatrudni i rodi preko vremena starosti; jer držaše za vernog Onog koji obeća.
12 Zato se i rodiše od jednog, još gotovo mrtvog, kao zvezde nebeske mnoštvom, i kao nebrojeni pesak pokraj mora.
13 U veri pomreše svi ovi ne primivši obećanja, nego ga videvši izdaleka, i poklonivši mu se, i priznavši da su gosti i došljaci na zemlji.
14 Jer koji tako govore pokazuju da traže otačanstvo.
15 I da bi se oni opomenuli onog iz kog iziđoše, imali bi vreme da se vrate.
16 Ali sad bolje žele, to jest nebesko. Zato se Bog ne stidi njih nazvati se Bog njihov; jer im pripravi grad.
17 Verom privede Avraam Isaka kad bi kušan, i jedinorodnoga prinošaše, pošto beše primio obećanje,
18 u kome beše kazano: U Isaku nazvaće ti se seme;
19 pomislivši da je Bog kadar i iz mrtvih vaskrsnuti; zato ga i uze za priliku.
20 Verom blagoslovi Isak Jakova i Isava u stvarima koje će doći.
21 Verom blagoslovi Jakov umirući svakog sina Josifovog, i pokloni se vrhu palice njegove.
22 Verom se opominja Josif umirući izlaska sinova Izrailjevih, i zapoveda za kosti svoje.
23 Verom Mojsija, pošto se rodi, kriše tri meseca roditelji njegovi, jer videše krasno dete, i pobojaše se zapovesti careve.
24 Verom Mojsije, kad bi veliki, ne htede da se naziva sin kćeri Faraonove;
25 i volje stradati s narodom Božijim, negoli imati zemaljsku sladost greha:
26 Državši sramotu Hristovu za veće bogatstvo od svega blaga misirskog; jer gledaše na platu.
27 Verom ostavi Misir, ne pobojavši se ljutine careve; jer se držaše Onog koji se ne vidi, kao da Ga viđaše.
28 Verom učini pashu i proliv krvi, da se onaj koji gubljaše prvorođene ne dotakne do njih.
29 Verom pređoše Crveno More kao po suvoj zemlji; koje i Misirci okušavši potopiše se.
30 Verom padoše zidovi jerihonski, kad se obilazi oko njih sedam dana.
31 Verom Raav kurva ne pogibe s nevernicima, primivši uhode s mirom, i izvedavši ih drugim putem.
32 I šta ću još da kažem? Jer mi ne bi dostalo vremena kad bih stao pripovedati o Gedeonu, i o Varaku i Samsonu i Jeftaju, o Davidu i Samuilu, i o drugim prorocima,
33 koji verom pobediše carstva, učiniše pravdu, dobiše obećanja, zatvoriše usta lavovima,
34 ugasiše silu ognjenu, pobegoše od oštrica mača, ojačaše od nemoći, postaše jaki u bitkama, rasteraše vojske tuđe;
35 žene primiše svoje mrtve iz vaskrsenja; a drugi biše pobijeni, ne primivši izbavljenje, da dobiju bolje vaskrsenje;
36 a drugi ruganje i boj podnesoše, pa još i okove i tamnice;
37 kamenjem pobijeni biše, pretrveni biše, iskušani biše, od mača pomreše; idoše u kožusima i u kozjim kožama, u sirotinji, u nevolji, u sramoti;
38 kojih ne beše dostojan svet, po pustinjama potucaše se, i po gorama i po pećinama i po rupama zemaljskim.
39 I ovi svi dobivši svedočanstvo verom ne primiše obećanja;
40 jer Bog nešto bolje za nas odredi, da ne prime bez nas savršenstva.

Hebrews

Chapter 11
1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
2 For by it the elders obtained a good report.
3 Through 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.
4 By 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.
5 By 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.
6 But 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.
7 By 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.
8 By 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.
9 By 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:
10 For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
11 Through 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.
12 Therefore 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.
13 These 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.
14 For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country.
15 And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned.
16 But 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.
17 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son,
18 Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called:
19 Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.
20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.
21 By faith Jacob, when he was a dying, blessed both the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff.
22 By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones.
23 By 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.
24 By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter;
25 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;
26 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.
27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
28 Through faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them.
29 By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the Egyptians assaying to do were drowned.
30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they were compassed about seven days.
31 By faith the harlot Rahab perished not with them that believed not, when she had received the spies with peace.
32 And 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:
33 Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
34 Quenched 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.
35 Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:
36 And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment:
37 They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented;
38 (Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.
39 And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise:
40 God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.
