By faith he stayed for a time in the land he had been promised, as in a foreign land, living in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise.(A) 10 For he looked forward to the city that has foundations, whose architect and builder is God.(B) 11 By faith, with Sarah’s involvement, he received power of procreation, even though he was too old, because he considered[a] him faithful who had promised.(C) 12 Therefore from one person, and this one as good as dead, descendants were born, “as many as the stars of heaven and as the innumerable grains of sand by the seashore.”(D)

13 All of these died in faith without having received the promises, but from a distance they saw and greeted them. They confessed that they were strangers and foreigners on the earth,(E) 14 for people who speak in this way make it clear that they are seeking a homeland. 15 If they had been thinking of the land that they had left behind, they would have had opportunity to return. 16 But as it is, they desire a better homeland, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God; indeed, he has prepared a city for them.(F)

13 All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised;(L) they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance,(M) admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth.(N) 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.(O) 16 Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one.(P) Therefore God is not ashamed(Q) to be called their God,(R) for he has prepared a city(S) for them.
