Hebrews 11:24-28
The Message
24-28 By faith, Moses, when grown, refused the privileges of the Egyptian royal house. He chose a hard life with God’s people rather than an opportunistic soft life of sin with the oppressors. He valued suffering in the Messiah’s camp far greater than Egyptian wealth because he was looking ahead, anticipating the payoff. By an act of faith, he turned his heel on Egypt, indifferent to the king’s blind rage. He had his eye on the One no eye can see, and kept right on going. By an act of faith, he kept the Passover Feast and sprinkled Passover blood on each house so that the destroyer of the firstborn wouldn’t touch them.

Hebrews 11:24-28
New International Version
24 By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh’s daughter.(A) 25 He chose to be mistreated(B) along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin. 26 He regarded disgrace(C) for the sake of Christ(D) as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward.(E) 27 By faith he left Egypt,(F) 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(G) of the firstborn would not touch the firstborn of Israel.(H)

Hebrews 11:24-28
King James Version
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.
