Ebrei 11

Giovanni Diodati 1649 (Italian) GDB

1 OR la fede è una sussistenza delle cose che si sperano, ed una dimostrazione delle cose che non si veggono.

2 Perciocchè per essa fu resa testimonianza agli antichi.

3 Per fede intendiamo che i secoli sono stati composti per la parola di Dio; sì che le cose che si vedono non sono state fatte di cose apparenti.

4 Per fede Abele offerse a Dio sacrificio più eccellente che Caino; per la quale fu testimoniato ch’egli era giusto, rendendo Iddio testimonianza delle sue offerte; e per essa, dopo esser morto, parla ancora.

5 Per fede Enoc fu trasportato, per non veder la morte, e non fu trovato; perciocchè Iddio l’avea trasportato; poichè, avanti ch’egli fosse trasportato, fu di lui testimoniato ch’egli era piaciuto a Dio.

6 Ora, senza fede, è impossibile di piacergli; perciocchè colui che si accosta a Dio deve credere ch’egli è, e che egli è premiatore di coloro che lo ricercano.

7 Per fede Noè, ammonito per oracolo delle cose che non si vedevano ancora, avendo temuto, fabbricò, per la salvazione della sua famiglia, l’arca, per la quale egli condannò il mondo, e fu fatto erede della giustizia ch’è secondo la fede.

8 Per fede Abrahamo, essendo chiamato, ubbidì, per andarsene al luogo che egli avea da ricevere in eredità; e partì, non sapendo dove si andasse.

9 Per fede Abrahamo dimorò nel paese della promessa, come in paese strano, abitando in tende, con Isacco, e Giacobbe, coeredi della stessa promessa.

10 Perciocchè egli aspettava la città che ha i fondamenti, e il cui architetto e fabbricatore è Iddio.

11 Per fede ancora Sara stessa, essendo sterile, ricevette forza da concepir seme, e partorì fuor d’età; perciocchè reputò fedele colui che avea fatta la promessa.

12 Perciò ancora da uno, e quello già ammortato, son nati discendenti, in moltitudine come le stelle del cielo, e come le rena innumerabile che è lungo il lito del mare.

13 In fede son morti tutti costoro, non avendo ricevute le cose promesse; ma, avendole vedute di lontano, e credutele, e salutatele; ed avendo confessato ch’erano forestieri, e pellegrini sopra la terra.

14 Poichè coloro che dicono tali cose dimostrano che cercano una patria.

15 Che se pur si ricordavano di quella onde erano usciti, certo avean tempo da ritornarvi.

16 Ma ora ne desiderano una migliore, cioè, la celeste; perciò, Iddio non si vergogna di loro, d’esser chiamato lor Dio; poichè egli ha loro preparata una città.

17 Per fede Abrahamo, essendo provato, offerse Isacco; e colui che avea ricevute le promesse offerse il suo unigenito.

18 Egli, dico, a cui era stato detto: In Isacco ti sarà nominata progenie.

19 Avendo fatta ragione che Iddio era potente eziandio da suscitarlo da’ morti; onde ancora per similitudine lo ricoverò.

20 Per fede Isacco benedisse Giacobbe ed Esaù, intorno a cose future.

21 Per fede Giacobbe, morendo, benedisse ciascuno de’ figliuoli di Giuseppe; e adorò, appoggiato sopra la sommità del suo bastone.

22 Per fede Giuseppe, trapassando, fece menzione dell’uscita de’ figliuoli d’Israele, e diede ordine intorno alle sue ossa.

23 Per fede Mosè, essendo nato, fu nascosto da suo padre e da sua madre, lo spazio di tre mesi; perciocchè vedevano il fanciullo bello; e non temettero il comandamento del re.

24 Per fede Mosè, essendo divenuto grande, rifiutò d’esser chiamato figliuolo della figliuola di Faraone;

25 eleggendo innanzi d’essere afflitto col popol di Dio, che d’aver per un breve tempo godimento di peccato;

26 avendo reputato il vituperio di Cristo ricchezza maggiore de’ tesori di Egitto; perciocchè egli riguardava alla rimunerazione.

27 Per fede lasciò l’Egitto, non avendo temuta l’ira del re; perciocchè egli stette costante, come veggendo l’invisibile.

28 Per fede fece la pasqua, e lo spruzzamento del sangue; acciocchè colui che distruggeva i primogeniti non toccasse gli Ebrei.

29 Per fede passarono il Mar rosso, come per l’asciutto; il che tentando fare gli Egizi, furono abissati.

30 Per fede caddero le mura di Gerico, essendo state circuite per sette giorni.

31 Per fede Raab, la meretrice, avendo accolte le spie in pace, non perì con gli increduli.

32 E che dirò io di più? poichè il tempo mi verrebbe meno, se imprendessi a raccontar di Gedeone, e di Barac, e di Sansone, e di Iefte, e di Davide, e di Samuele, e de’ profeti.

33 I quali per fede vinsero regni, operarono giustizia, ottennero promesse, turarono le gole de’ leoni,

34 spensero la forza del fuoco, scamparono i tagli delle spade, guarirono d’infermità, divennero forti in guerra, misero in fuga i campi degli stranieri.

35 Le donne ricuperarono per risurrezione i lor morti; ed altri furon fatti morire di battiture, non avendo accettata la liberazione, per ottenere una migliore risurrezione.

36 Altri ancora provarono scherni e flagelli; ed anche legami e prigione.

37 Furon lapidati, furon segati, furon tentati; morirono uccisi con la spada, andarono attorno in pelli di pecore e di capre; bisognosi, afflitti,

38 maltrattati de’ quali non era degno il mondo, erranti in deserti, e monti, e spelonche, e nelle grotte della terra.

39 E pur tutti costoro, alla cui fede la scrittura rende testimonianza, non ottennero la promessa.

40 Avendo Iddio provveduto qualche cosa di meglio per noi, acciocchè non pervenissero al compimento senza noi.

New International Version NIV

1 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.

2 This is what the ancients were commended for.

3 By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.

4 By faith Abel brought God a better offering than Cain did. By faith he was commended as righteous, when God spoke well of his offerings. And by faith Abel still speaks, even though he is dead.

5 By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that he did not experience death: “He could not be found, because God had taken him away.” For before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God.

6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.

7 By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in holy fear built an ark to save his family. By his faith he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness that is in keeping with faith.

8 By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going.

9 By faith he made his home in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise.

10 For he was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God.

11 And by faith even Sarah, who was past childbearing age, was enabled to bear children because she considered him faithful who had made the promise.

12 And so from this one man, and he as good as dead, came descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as countless as the sand on the seashore.

13 All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance, admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth.

14 People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own.

15 If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return.

16 Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.

17 By faith Abraham, when God tested him, offered Isaac as a sacrifice. He who had embraced the promises was about to sacrifice his one and only son,

18 even though God had said to him, “It is through Isaac that your offspring will be reckoned.”

19 Abraham reasoned that God could even raise the dead, and so in a manner of speaking he did receive Isaac back from death.

20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau in regard to their future.

21 By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of Joseph’s sons, and worshiped as he leaned on the top of his staff.

22 By faith Joseph, when his end was near, spoke about the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt and gave instructions concerning the burial of his bones.

23 By faith Moses’ parents hid him for three months after he was born, because they saw he was no ordinary child, and they were not afraid of the king’s edict.

24 By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh’s daughter.

25 He chose to be mistreated along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin.

26 He regarded disgrace for the sake of Christ as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward.

27 By faith he left Egypt, 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 of the firstborn would not touch the firstborn of Israel.

29 By faith the people passed through the Red Sea as on dry land; but when the Egyptians tried to do so, they were drowned.

30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell, after the army had marched around them for seven days.

31 By faith the prostitute Rahab, because she welcomed the spies, was not killed with those who were disobedient.

32 And what more shall I say? I do not have time to tell about Gideon, Barak, Samson and Jephthah, about David and Samuel and the prophets,

33 who through faith conquered kingdoms, administered justice, and gained what was promised; who shut the mouths of lions,

34 quenched the fury of the flames, and escaped the edge of the sword; whose weakness was turned to strength; and who became powerful in battle and routed foreign armies.

35 Women received back their dead, raised to life again. There were others who were tortured, refusing to be released so that they might gain an even better resurrection.

36 Some faced jeers and flogging, and even chains and imprisonment.

37 They were put to death by stoning; they were sawed in two; they were killed by the sword. They went about in sheepskins and goatskins, destitute, persecuted and mistreated—

38 the world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains, living in caves and in holes in the ground.

39 These were all commended for their faith, yet none of them received what had been promised,

40 since God had planned something better for us so that only together with us would they be made perfect.
