⁸ By faith pistis Abraham Abraam obeyed hypakouō when he was called kaleō to go out exerchomai to eis a place topos which hos he would mellō receive lambanō as eis an inheritance klēronomia. · kai He set out exerchomai even though he did not mē know epistamai where pou he was going erchomai. ⁹ By faith pistis he migrated paroikeō to eis the land gē · ho he had been promised epangelia, as hōs to a foreign allotrios land , living katoikeō in en tents skēnē as did meta Isaac Isaak and kai Jacob Iakōb, · ho heirs with synklēronomos him of the ho same autos promise epangelia, · ho ¹⁰ for gar he was looking forward to ekdechomai the ho city polis which ho has echō foundations themelios, whose hos designer technitēs and kai builder dēmiourgos is · ho God theos. ¹¹ By faith pistis · kai Abraham was lambanō enabled dynamis to become lambanō a father katabolē—even though Sarah Sarra herself autos was sterile steira and kai beyond para the normal age kairos of childbearing hēlikia— because epei he regarded hēgeomai as faithful pistos the ho one who had made the promise epangellomai. ¹² And kai so dio it was that from apo this one heis man , and he was already impotent nekroō, there were born gennaō · kai descendants houtos as many as kathōs the ho stars astron of ho heaven ouranos in ho number plēthos and kai as innumerable anarithmētos as hōs the ho grains of sand ammos · ho along para the ho shore cheilos of the ho sea thalassa · ho

For this reason dio God theos is not ou ashamed epaischunomai · ho to be called epikaleō their autos God theos, for gar he has prepared hetoimazō a city polis to receive them autos.

¹⁴ About ēdē · de halfway through mesoō the ho festival heortē Jesus Iēsous went anabainō up to eis the ho temple hieron and kai began to teach didaskō. ¹⁵ The ho Jews Ioudaios were astonished thaumazō, and they asked legō, “ How pōs does oida this houtos man know oida the sacred letters gramma, having never mē studied manthanō?” ¹⁶ Jesus Iēsous answered apokrinomai, them autos, · ho · kai saying legō, · ho “ My emos teaching didachē is eimi not ou mine emos, but alla it comes from the ho one who sent pempō me egō. ¹⁷ If ean anyone tis is willing thelō to do poieō God’ s autos · ho will thelēma, he will know ginōskō about peri the ho teaching didachē, whether poteron it comes eimi from ek · ho God theos or ē whether I egō am speaking laleō on apo my emautou own authority. ¹⁸ The ho one who speaks laleō on apo his heautou own authority seeks zēteō · ho his own idios honor doxa; · ho but de the ho one who seeks zēteō the ho honor doxa of the ho one who sent pempō him autos is eimi truthful alēthēs, and kai in en him autos there is eimi nothing ou false adikia.

¹⁹ “ Has not ou Moses Mōysēs given didōmi you hymeis the ho law nomos? Yet kai not oudeis one of ek you hymeis keeps poieō the ho law nomos. Why tis are you trying zēteō to kill apokteinō me egō?” ²⁰ The ho crowd ochlos answered apokrinomai, “ You have echō a demon daimonion! Who tis is trying zēteō to kill apokteinō you sy?” ²¹ Jesus Iēsous answered apokrinomai, · kai saying legō to them autos, “ I performed poieō one heis work ergon, and kai you are all pas astonished thaumazō. ²² For dia this houtos reason Moses Mōysēs gave didōmi you hymeis · ho circumcision peritomē— not ou that hoti it is eimi from ek · ho Moses Mōysēs, but alla from ek the ho patriarchs patēr— and kai you circumcise peritemnō a man anthrōpos on en the Sabbath sabbaton. ²³ If ei a man anthrōpos receives lambanō circumcision peritomē on en the Sabbath sabbaton so hina that the ho law nomos of Moses Mōysēs may not mē be broken lyō, why are you angry cholaō with me egō because hoti I made poieō an entire holos man anthrōpos well hygiēs on en the Sabbath sabbaton? ²⁴ Do not mē judge krinō according kata to appearance opsis, but alla judge krinō with ho proper dikaios judgment krisis.”

²⁵ Then oun some tis of ek the ho people of Jerusalem Hierosolymitēs began to say legō, “ Is eimi not ou this houtos the man whom hos they are trying zēteō to kill apokteinō? ²⁶ And kai look ide, he is speaking laleō boldly parrēsia and kai they are saying legō nothing oudeis to him autos. Is it possible mēpote that our ho rulers archōn know ginōskō for sure alēthōs that hoti this houtos man is eimi the ho Christ Christos? ²⁷ Yet alla we know oida where this houtos man is eimi from pothen; when hotan the ho · de Christ Christos appears erchomai, no oudeis one will know ginōskō where pothen he is eimi from.” ²⁸ Then oun Jesus Iēsous, as he was teaching didaskō in en the ho temple hieron, · ho cried out krazō, · kai saying legō, “ You know oida me kagō, and kai you know oida where pothen I am eimi from? · kai I have erchomai not ou come erchomai on apo my emautou own . But alla the ho one who sent pempō me egō is eimi true alēthinos, and him hos you hymeis do not ou know oida; ²⁹ but I egō know oida him autos, because hoti I am eimi from para him autos and he kakeinos it is who sent apostellō me egō.” ³⁰ So oun they were anxious zēteō to arrest piazō him autos, but kai no oudeis one laid epiballō a hand cheir on epi him autos, · ho because hoti his autos hour hōra had not oupō yet come erchomai. · ho ³¹ Yet de many polys of ek the ho crowd ochlos believed pisteuō in eis him autos, · kai saying legō, “ When hotan the ho Christ Christos comes erchomai, he will poieō not mē perform poieō more polys miraculous sēmeion signs than hos this houtos man has poieō, will he?”
