Hebrews 11:13 in context

  1. 11By faith even Sarah herself received power to conceive seed when she was past age, since she counted him faithful who had promised:
  2. 12wherefore also there sprang of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of heaven in multitude, and as the sand, which is by the sea-shore, innumerable.
  3. 13These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them and greeted them from afar, and having confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
  4. 14For they that say such things make it manifest that they are seeking after a country of their own.
  5. 15And if indeed they had been mindful of that country from which they went out, they would have had opportunity to return.
