Hebrews 11

KING JAMES BIBLE	NOVA VULGATA
1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.	1 Est autem fides sperando rum substantia, rerum argu mentum non apparentium.
2 For by it the elders obtained a good report.	2 In hac enim testimonium consecuti sunt seniores.
3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.	3 Fide intellegimus aptata esse saecula verbo Dei, ut ex invisibilibus visibilia facta sint.
4 By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.	4 Fide ampliorem hostiam Abel quam Cain obtulit Deo, per quam testimonium consecutus est esse iustus, testimonium perhibente muneribus eius Deo; et per illam defunctus adhuc loquitur.
5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.	5 Fide Henoch translatus est, ne videret mortem, et non inveniebatur, quia transtulit illum Deus; ante translationem enim testimonium accepit placuisse Deo.
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.	6 Sine fide autem impossibile placere; credere enim oportet accedentem ad Deum quia est et inquirentibus se remunerator fit.
7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.	7 Fide Noe, responso accepto de his, quae adhuc non videbantur, reveritus aptavit arcam in salutem domus suae; per quam damnavit mundum, et iustitiae, quae secundum fidem est, heres est institutus.
8 By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.	8 Fide vocatus Abraham oboedivit in locum exire, quem accepturus erat in hereditatem; et exivit nesciens quo iret.
9 By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:	9 Fide peregrinatus est in terra promissionis tamquam in aliena, in casulis habitando cum Isaac et Iacob, coheredibus promissionis eiusdem;
10 For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.	10 exspectabat enim fundamenta habentem civitatem, cuius artifex et conditor Deus.
11 Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised.	11 Fide — et ipsa Sara sterilis — virtutem in conceptionem seminis accepit etiam praeter tempus aetatis, quoniam fidelem credidit esse, qui promiserat;
12 Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.	12 propter quod et ab uno orti sunt, et hoc emortuo, tamquam sidera caeli in multitudine, et sicut arena, quae est ad oram maris, innumerabilis.
13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.	13 Iuxta fidem defuncti sunt omnes isti, non acceptis promissionibus, sed a longe eas aspicientes et salutantes, et confitentes quia peregrini et hospites sunt supra terram;
14 For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country.	14 qui enim haec dicunt, significant se patriam inquirere.
15 And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned.	15 Et si quidem illius meminissent, de qua exierant, habebant utique tempus revertendi;
16 But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.	16 nunc autem meliorem appetunt, id est caelestem. Ideo non confunditur Deus vocari Deus eorum, paravit enim illis civitatem.
17 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son,	17 Fide obtulit Abraham Isaac, cum tentaretur; et unigenitum offerebat ille, qui susceperat promissiones,
18 Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called:	18 ad quem dictum erat: “ In Isaac vocabitur tibi semen ”,
19 Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.	19 arbitratus quia et a mortuis suscitare potens est Deus; unde eum et in parabola reportavit.
20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.	20 Fide et de futuris benedixit Isaac Iacob et Esau.
21 By faith Jacob, when he was a dying, blessed both the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff.	21 Fide Iacob moriens singulis filiorum Ioseph benedixit et adoravit super fastigium virgae suae.
22 By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones.	22 Fide Ioseph moriens de profectione filiorum Israel memoratus est et de ossibus suis mandavit.
23 By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months of his parents, because they saw he was a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king's commandment.	23 Fide Moyses natus occultatus est mensibus tribus a parentibus suis, eo quod vidissent formosum infantem et non timuerunt regis edictum.
24 By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter;	24 Fide Moyses grandis factus negavit se dici filium filiae pharaonis,
25 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;	25 magis eligens affligi cum populo Dei quam temporalem peccati habere iucunditatem,
26 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.	26 maiores divitias aestimans thesauris Aegypti improperium Christi; aspiciebat enim in remunerationem.
27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.	27 Fide reliquit Aegyptum non veritus animositatem regis, invisibilem enim tamquam videns sustinuit.
28 Through faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them.	28 Fide celebravit Pascha et sanguinis effusionem, ne, qui vastabat primogenita, tangeret ea.
29 By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the Egyptians assaying to do were drowned.	29 Fide transierunt mare Rubrum tamquam per aridam terram, quod experti Aegyptii devorati sunt.
30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they were compassed about seven days.	30 Fide muri Iericho ruerunt circuiti diebus septem.
31 By faith the harlot Rahab perished not with them that believed not, when she had received the spies with peace.	31 Fide Rahab meretrix non periit cum incredulis, quia exceperat exploratores cum pace.
32 And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets:	32 Et quid adhuc dicam? Deficiet enim me tempus enarrantem de Gedeon, Barac, Samson, Iephte, David et Samuel atque prophetis,
33 Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,	33 qui per fidem devicerunt regna, operati sunt iustitiam, adepti sunt repromissiones, obturaverunt ora leonum,
34 Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens.	34 exstinxerunt impetum ignis, effugerunt aciem gladii, convaluerunt de infirmitate, fortes facti sunt in bello, castra verterunt exterorum;
35 Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:	35 acceperunt mulieres de resurrectione mortuos suos; alii autem distenti sunt, non suscipientes redemptionem, ut meliorem invenirent resurrectionem;
36 And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment:	36 alii vero ludibria et verbera experti sunt, insuper et vincula et carcerem;
37 They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented;	37 lapidati sunt, secti sunt, in occisione gladii mortui sunt, circumierunt in melotis, in pellibus caprinis, egentes, angustiati, afflicti,
38 (Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.	38 quibus dignus non erat mundus, in solitudinibus errantes et montibus et speluncis et in cavernis terrae.
39 And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise:	39 Et hi omnes testimonium per fidem consecuti non reportaverunt promissionem,
40 God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.	40 Deo pro nobis melius aliquid providente, ut ne sine nobis consummarentur.
