1 Now faith is the assurance of what we hope for and the certainty of what we do not see. 2 This is why the ancients were commended. 3 By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command {rhēmati}, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible. 4 By faith Abel (breath) offered God {Theō} a better sacrifice than Cain did. By faith he was commended as righteous when God {Theou} gave approval to his gifts. And by faith he still speaks, even though he is dead. 5 By faith Enoch (teaching) was taken up \transferred/ so that he did not see death: “He could not be found, because God {Theos} had taken him away 6 And without faith it is impossible to please God. For anyone who approaches Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him. Hebrews 11:1-6, Berean Annotated Bible. Public domain.
