Hebrews 11:6 in Context — Hebrews 11

4 C’est par la foi qu’Abel offrit à Dieu un sacrifice plus excellent que celui de Caïn; c’est par elle qu’il fut déclaré juste, Dieu approuvant ses offrandes; et c’est par elle qu’il parle encore, quoique mort.

5 C’est par la foi qu’Énoch fut enlevé pour qu’il ne vît point la mort, et qu’il ne parut plus parce que Dieu l’avait enlevé; car, avant son enlèvement, il avait reçu le témoignage qu’il était agréable à Dieu.

6 Or sans la foi il est impossible de lui être agréable; car il faut que celui qui s’approche de Dieu croie que Dieu existe, et qu’il est le rémunérateur de ceux qui le cherchent.

7 C’est par la foi que Noé, divinement averti des choses qu’on ne voyait pas encore, et saisi d’une crainte respectueuse, construisit une arche pour sauver sa famille; c’est par elle qu’il condamna le monde, et devint héritier de la justice qui s’obtient par la foi.

8 C’est par la foi qu’Abraham, lors de sa vocation, obéit et partit pour un lieu qu’il devait recevoir en héritage, et qu’il partit sans savoir où il allait.
