希伯来书 11
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
论信心
11 信就是对所盼望的事的把握，是还没有看见的事的明证。 2 因着这信心，古人得到了称许。
3 因着信，我们就明白宇宙（“宇宙”或译：“诸世界”或“众世代”）是因着 神的话造成的。这样，那看得见的就是从那看不见的造出来的。
信心的伟人
4 因着信，亚伯比该隐献上更美的祭品给 神；借着这信心，他被 神称许为义人，这是 神指着他的礼物所作的见证；他虽然死了，却借着信仍然说话。 5 因着信，以诺被迁去了，使他不至于死，人也找不着他，因为 神把他迁去了。原来在迁去以前，他已经得了 神喜悦他的明证。 6 没有信，就不能得到 神的喜悦；因为来到 神面前的人，必须信 神存在，并且信他会赏赐那些寻求他的人。 7 因着信，挪亚在还没有看见的事上，得了 神的警告，就动了敬畏的心，做了一艘方舟，使他全家得救。借着这信心，他就定了那世代的罪，自己也承受了那因信而来的义。
8 因着信，亚伯拉罕在蒙召的时候，就听命往他将要承受为业的地方去；他出去的时候，还不知道要往哪里去。 9 因着信，他在应许之地寄居，好象是在异乡，与承受同样应许的以撒、雅各一样住在帐棚里。 10 因为他等待那座有根基的城，就是 神所设计所建造的。 11 因着信，甚至撒拉，她虽然过了生育的年龄，还是能够怀孕，因为她认为那应许她的是信实的。 12 所以从一个好象已死的人，竟然生出许多子孙来，仿佛天上的星那么众多，海边的沙那么无数。
13 这些人都是存着信心死了的，还没有得着所应许的，只不过是从远处看见，就表示欢迎，又承认他们在世上是异乡人，是客旅。 14 因为说这样话的人，是表明他们在寻求一个家乡。 15 如果他们怀念已经离开了的地方，还有可以回去的机会。 16 但是现在他们所向往的，是一个更美的、在天上的家乡。所以， 神不以他们称他为 神而觉得羞耻；因为他已经为他们预备了一座城。
17 因着信，亚伯拉罕在受试验的时候，就把以撒献上；这就是那欢喜领受应许的人，献上了自己的独生子； 18 论到这个儿子，曾经有话说：“以撒生的，才可以称为你的后裔。” 19 亚伯拉罕认定， 神能使人从死人中复活，因此，就喻意说，他的确从死里得回他的儿子。 20 因着信，以撒给雅各和以扫祝福，论到将来的事。 21 因着信，雅各临死的时候，分别为约瑟的儿子祝福，又倚着杖头敬拜 神。 22 因着信，约瑟临终的时候，提到以色列子民出埃及的事，并且为自己的骸骨留下遗言。
23 因着信，摩西的父母在摩西生下来以后，因为看见孩子俊美，就把他藏了三个月，不怕王的命令。 24 因着信，摩西长大了以后，就拒绝被称为法老女儿的儿子。 25 他宁愿选择和 神的子民一同受苦，也不肯享受罪恶中暂时的快乐。 26 在他看来，为着基督受的凌辱，比埃及的财物更宝贵，因为他注视将来的赏赐。 27 因着信，他离开了埃及，不怕王的忿怒；因为他坚定不移，就像看见了人不能看见的 神。 28 因着信，他立了逾越节和洒血的礼，免得那灭命的侵犯以色列人的长子。 29 因着信，他们走过了红海，好象走过旱地一样；埃及人也试着要过去，就被淹没了。 30 因着信，耶利哥的城墙被围绕了七天，就倒塌了。 31 因着信，妓女喇合和和平平接待了侦察的人，就没有和那些不顺从的人一起灭亡。
32 我还要再说甚么呢？如果再要述说基甸、巴拉、参孙、耶弗他、大卫、撒母耳和众先知的事，时间就不够了。 33 他们借着信，就战胜了敌国，伸张了正义，得到了应许，堵住了狮子的口， 34 消灭了烈火的威力，逃脱了刀剑的锋刃，软弱变成刚强，在战争中显出大能，把外国的军队击退。 35 有些妇女得回从死里复活的亲人；但也有些人忍受了酷刑，不肯接受释放，为的是要得着更美的复活。 36 又有些人遭受了戏弄、鞭打，甚至捆锁、监禁； 37 被石头打死，被锯锯死，（后期抄本在此加上“受试探”）被刀杀死。他们披着绵羊山羊的皮到处奔跑、受穷乏、遭患难、被虐待； 38 原是这世界不配有的人。他们飘流无定，在旷野、山岭、石洞和地穴栖身。
39 所有这些人都借着信得了称许，却还没有得着所应许的； 40 因为 神已经为我们预备了更美的事，使他们若不跟我们在一起，就不能完全。

Living by Faith
11 Now faith is the reality[a] of what is hoped for, the proof[b] of what is not seen.(A) 2 For by this our ancestors were approved.
3 By faith we understand that the universe was[c] created by the word of God,(B) so that what is seen was made from things that are not visible.[d]
4 By faith Abel offered to God a better sacrifice than Cain did. By faith he was approved as a righteous man, because God approved his gifts, and even though he is dead, he still speaks through his faith.(C)
5 By faith Enoch was taken away, and so he did not experience death. He was not to be found because God took him away.[e] For before he was taken away, he was approved as one who pleased God.(D) 6 Now without faith it is impossible to please God, since the one who draws near to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.
7 By faith Noah, after he was warned about what was not yet seen and motivated by godly fear, built an ark to deliver his family. By faith he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness that comes by faith.(E)
8 By faith Abraham, when he was called, obeyed and set out for a place that he was going to receive as an inheritance. He went out, even though he did not know where he was going.(F) 9 By faith he stayed as a foreigner in the land of promise, living in tents as did Isaac and Jacob, coheirs of the same promise.(G) 10 For he was looking forward to the city that has foundations, whose architect and builder is God.(H)
11 By faith even Sarah herself, when she was unable to have children, received power to conceive offspring, even though she was past the age, since she[f] considered that the one who had promised was faithful.(I) 12 Therefore, from one man—in fact, from one as good as dead—came offspring as numerous as the stars of the sky and as innumerable as the grains of sand along the seashore.(J)
13 These all died in faith, although they had not received the things that were promised. But they saw them from a distance,(K) greeted them, and confessed that they were foreigners and temporary residents on the earth.(L) 14 Now those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a homeland. 15 If they were thinking about where they came from, they would have had an opportunity to return. 16 But they now desire a better place—a heavenly one. Therefore, God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.(M)
17 By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac.(N) He received the promises and yet he was offering his one and only son, 18 the one to whom it had been said, Your offspring[g] will be traced through Isaac.[h](O) 19 He considered God to be able even to raise someone from the dead;(P) therefore, he received him back, figuratively speaking.[i]
20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau(Q) concerning things to come. 21 By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and he worshiped, leaning on the top of his staff.[j](R) 22 By faith Joseph, as he was nearing the end of his life, mentioned[k] the exodus of the Israelites and gave instructions concerning his bones.(S)
23 By faith Moses, after he was born, was hidden by his parents for three months, because they saw that the child was beautiful, and they didn’t fear the king’s edict.(T) 24 By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter 25 and chose to suffer with the people of God rather than to enjoy the fleeting pleasure of sin.(U) 26 For he considered reproach for the sake of Christ to be greater wealth than the treasures of Egypt, since he was looking ahead to the reward.(V)
27 By faith he left Egypt behind, not being afraid of the king’s anger, for Moses persevered as one who sees him who is invisible.(W) 28 By faith he instituted the Passover and the sprinkling of the blood, so that the destroyer of the firstborn might not touch the Israelites. 29 By faith they crossed the Red Sea as though they were on dry land. When the Egyptians attempted to do this, they were drowned.(X)
30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after being marched around by the Israelites for seven days. 31 By faith Rahab the prostitute welcomed the spies in peace and didn’t perish with those who disobeyed.(Y)
32 And what more can I say? Time is too short for me to tell about Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah,(Z) David, Samuel, and the prophets,(AA) 33 who by faith conquered kingdoms,(AB) administered justice, obtained promises, shut the mouths of lions,(AC) 34 quenched the raging of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, gained strength in weakness, became mighty in battle, and put foreign armies to flight.(AD) 35 Women received their dead, raised to life again. Other people were tortured, not accepting release, so that they might gain a better resurrection. 36 Others experienced mockings and scourgings, as well as bonds and imprisonment.(AE) 37 They were stoned,[l](AF) they were sawed in two, they died by the sword, they wandered about in sheepskins, in goatskins,(AG) destitute, afflicted, and mistreated. 38 The world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and on mountains, hiding in caves and holes in the ground.
39 All these were approved through their faith, but they did not receive what was promised, 40 since God had provided something better for us, so that they would not be made perfect without us.(AH)

Hebrews 11
Worldwide English (New Testament)
Hebrews 11
Worldwide English (New Testament)
11 If people believe God, then they know they have the things they hope to get. It is the proof of things we do not see.
2 There were people long ago believed God. He said they were good because they believed him.
3 We believe in God, so that is how we know that God made the world by his word. The things we see were made out of things that cannot be seen.
4 Because Abel believed God, he made a sacrifice that pleased God more than the one Cain made. Because Abel believed God, God showed that he was good. God was pleased with his gifts. Abel died. But because he believed God, he still speaks to us through his faith.
5 Because Enoch believed God, he was taken up into heaven without dying. The people could not find him because God had taken him. Before he was taken up, the holy writings say that he pleased God.
6 If a person does not believe God, he cannot please him. Anyone who comes to God must believe that God is real. And he must believe that God will bless those who try to find him. God will reward a person, if he really tries to find God.
7 God told Noah about things that would happen. These things had never happened before. Noah believed God; he respected God. He built a big house on a boat, and so his family was saved [from the big flood]. By believing God he showed that the other people were wrong. He was put right with God because he believed.
8 God called Abraham to go away to a place which he would have as his own. Because Abraham believed God, he obeyed him. He went even though he did not know where he was to go.
9 Because he believed God, he lived like a stranger in the land God promised him. He lived in tents with Isaac and Jacob. They had the same promise he had.
10 Abraham was looking for a city which will last for ever. It was the city God planned and made.
11 Sarah also believed God, and she was able to have a baby even though she was too old to have children. But she trusted God to do what he had promised.
12 Abraham was too old to be a father, but a great nation was born from that one man. They are as many as the stars in the sky and as the sands on the seaside. No man can count them.
13 These people all died still believing God. They did not get the things God had promised them. But they saw them far away and were glad to see them. They said they did not belong to this world, but were only travelling in it.
14 People who say such things mean they are looking for a country which will be their own.
15 If they had wanted the country they left behind, they could have gone back to it.
16 But now they want a better country. They want a place in heaven. That is why God wants to be called their God. He has made a city ready for them.
17 Abraham believed God when he was tested. The test was to give Isaac as a sacrifice. Abraham gave up his only son, even though God had made a promise to him about Isaac.
18 God had said to Abraham, `Isaac's children will be called your family.'
19 Abraham said in his heart that God could bring Isaac back to life. And so it was just as if he did get his son back.
20 Isaac believed God. He gave Jacob and Esau blessings that were to come.
21 Jacob believed God. When he was dying, he blessed Joseph's two sons. He leaned on his walking stick as he worshipped God.
22 Joseph believed God. When he died, he remembered God's promise and talked about the time the people of Israel would leave Egypt. He told them what to do with his bones when they left Egypt.
23 The father and mother of Moses believed God. When he was born, they hid him for three months because they saw that he was a very nice baby. They were not afraid of the king's orders.
24 Moses believed God. When he was grown up, he did not want to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter.
25 He chose to have troubles along with God's people. He thought that was better than the fun which he could have living a wrong life. The fun would last only for a short time.
26 He thought it was better to take shame, as Christ did, than to be a rich man in Egypt. He was looking for God's blessings.
27 He believed God and left Egypt. He was not afraid of the king's anger. He was strong because he saw the one who cannot be seen.
28 He believed God and obeyed his law about the Passover Feast, and put blood on the door posts. He did this so that the angel who killed the oldest sons of the Egyptians, would pass over. Then he would not kill the oldest sons in the families of the Jews.
29 The people believed God and went through the Red Sea on dry land. When the people of Egypt tried to do that, they were drowned.
30 The people believed God and walked around the walls of the city of Jericho for seven days. The walls fell down.
31 Rahab was a woman who used her body wrongly for sex to get money. But she believed in God, so she did not die with the people who did not believe in God. This was when the men came to spy out her country. She took them into her house in peace.
32 What more should I say? I do not have time to tell about Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel, and the prophets.
33 Men believed God and were able to win over other nations. They made people do what was right. They got what God promised them. They were not eaten by lions.
34 The big, hot fire did not burn them. They got away from men who wanted to kill them with long knives or swords. They were weak, but they became strong. They became very strong to fight. They drove away the armies of their enemies.
35 Women had children who died and were raised to life again. Some people allowed themselves to be beaten to death. They would not go free because they wanted to rise again to a better life.
36 Others were laughed at and beaten very hard. They were even tied with chains and put into prison.
37 They were killed with stones. They were tested. They were cut in pieces. They were killed with swords. They walked about wearing skins of sheep and goats. They were very poor. They were treated very badly. They were punished.
38 They were really too good to be in this world. They walked about in the desert and in the mountains, and in the holes in the hills and in the holes among the rocks on the earth.
39 All of these people had good things said about them because they believed God. But they did not get what God had promised.
40 God planned something better. They will be made perfect but only with us.

Faith in Action
11 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for(A) and assurance about what we do not see.(B) 2 This is what the ancients were commended for.(C)
3 By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command,(D) so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.
4 By faith Abel brought God a better offering than Cain did. By faith he was commended(E) as righteous, when God spoke well of his offerings.(F) And by faith Abel still speaks, even though he is dead.(G)
5 By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that he did not experience death: “He could not be found, because God had taken him away.”[a](H) For before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God. 6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him(I) must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.
7 By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen,(J) in holy fear built an ark(K) to save his family.(L) By his faith he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness that is in keeping with faith.(M)
8 By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance,(N) obeyed and went,(O) even though he did not know where he was going. 9 By faith he made his home in the promised land(P) like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents,(Q) as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise.(R) 10 For he was looking forward to the city(S) with foundations,(T) whose architect and builder is God.(U) 11 And by faith even Sarah, who was past childbearing age,(V) was enabled to bear children(W) because she[b] considered him faithful(X) who had made the promise. 12 And so from this one man, and he as good as dead,(Y) came descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as countless as the sand on the seashore.(Z)
13 All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised;(AA) they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance,(AB) admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth.(AC) 14 People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own. 15 If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return.(AD) 16 Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one.(AE) Therefore God is not ashamed(AF) to be called their God,(AG) for he has prepared a city(AH) for them.
17 By faith Abraham, when God tested him, offered Isaac as a sacrifice.(AI) He who had embraced the promises was about to sacrifice his one and only son, 18 even though God had said to him, “It is through Isaac that your offspring will be reckoned.”[c](AJ) 19 Abraham reasoned that God could even raise the dead,(AK) and so in a manner of speaking he did receive Isaac back from death.
20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau in regard to their future.(AL)
21 By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of Joseph’s sons,(AM) and worshiped as he leaned on the top of his staff.
22 By faith Joseph, when his end was near, spoke about the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt and gave instructions concerning the burial of his bones.(AN)
23 By faith Moses’ parents hid him for three months after he was born,(AO) because they saw he was no ordinary child, and they were not afraid of the king’s edict.(AP)
24 By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh’s daughter.(AQ) 25 He chose to be mistreated(AR) along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin. 26 He regarded disgrace(AS) for the sake of Christ(AT) as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward.(AU) 27 By faith he left Egypt,(AV) not fearing the king’s anger; he persevered because he saw him who is invisible. 28 By faith he kept the Passover and the application of blood, so that the destroyer(AW) of the firstborn would not touch the firstborn of Israel.(AX)
29 By faith the people passed through the Red Sea as on dry land; but when the Egyptians tried to do so, they were drowned.(AY)
30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell, after the army had marched around them for seven days.(AZ)
31 By faith the prostitute Rahab, because she welcomed the spies, was not killed with those who were disobedient.[d](BA)
32 And what more shall I say? I do not have time to tell about Gideon,(BB) Barak,(BC) Samson(BD) and Jephthah,(BE) about David(BF) and Samuel(BG) and the prophets, 33 who through faith conquered kingdoms,(BH) administered justice, and gained what was promised; who shut the mouths of lions,(BI) 34 quenched the fury of the flames,(BJ) and escaped the edge of the sword;(BK) whose weakness was turned to strength;(BL) and who became powerful in battle and routed foreign armies.(BM) 35 Women received back their dead, raised to life again.(BN) There were others who were tortured, refusing to be released so that they might gain an even better resurrection. 36 Some faced jeers and flogging,(BO) and even chains and imprisonment.(BP) 37 They were put to death by stoning;[e](BQ) they were sawed in two; they were killed by the sword.(BR) They went about in sheepskins and goatskins,(BS) destitute, persecuted and mistreated— 38 the world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains, living in caves(BT) and in holes in the ground.
39 These were all commended(BU) for their faith, yet none of them received what had been promised,(BV) 40 since God had planned something better for us so that only together with us(BW) would they be made perfect.(BX)
