Hebrews 10:38–11:6

38 Now sthe just shall live by faith: but if any man tdraw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. 39 But we are not of uthem who tdraw back unto perdition; but of them that wbelieve xto the saving of the soul.

11 Now faith is the ||substance of things hoped for, athe evidence of bthings not seen. 2 For cby it dthe elders eobtained a good report. 3 Through faith we understand that fthe worlds were gframed by hthe word of God, so that things which are seen iwere not made of things which do appear. 4 By faith jAbel offered unto God a more excellent ksacrifice than Cain, by which he eobtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his kgifts: and by it he lbeing dead ||yet mspeaketh. 5 By faith nEnoch was translated that he should not osee death; pand was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he ehad this testimony, nqthat he pleased God. 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for rhe that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is sa rewarder of them that tdiligently seek him.
