Hebrews 11:8 (New International Version) New International Version (NIV) Copyright © 1973, 1978, 1984 by International Bible Society: 8By 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. 11By faith Abraham, even though he was past age—and Sarah herself was barren—was enabled to become a father because he[a]considered him faithful who had made the promise. 12And 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 3) GIVING EVEN WHEN I DONT HAVE IT Hebrews 11:4 (New International Version) 4By faith Abel offered God a better sacrifice than Cain did.

But they are also filled with abundant joy, which has overflowed in rich generosity. 3 For I can testify that they gave not only what they could afford, but far more.

Hebreos 11 (Nueva Versión Internacional) Nueva Versión Internacional (NVI) Copyright © 1999 by International Bible Society. Hebreos 11 1Ahora bien, la fe es la garantía de lo que se espera, la certeza de lo que no se ve. 2Gracias a ella fueron aprobados los antiguos. 3Por la fe entendemos que el universo fue formado por la palabra de Dios, de modo que lo visible no provino de lo que se ve. 4Por la fe Abel ofreció a Dios un sacrificio más aceptable que el de Caín, por lo cual recibió testimonio de ser justo, pues Dios aceptó su ofrenda. Y por la fe Abel, a pesar de estar muerto, habla todavía. 5Por la fe Enoc fue sacado de este mundo sin experimentar la muerte; no fue hallado porque Dios se lo llevó, pero antes de ser llevado recibió testimonio de haber agradado a Dios. 6En realidad, sin fe es imposible agradar a Dios, ya que cualquiera que se acerca a Dios tiene que creer que él existe y que recompensa a quienes lo buscan. 7Por la fe Noé, advertido sobre cosas que aún no se veían, con temor reverente construyó un arca para salvar a su familia. Por esa fe condenó al mundo y llegó a ser heredero de la justicia que viene por la fe. 8Por la fe Abraham, cuando fue llamado para ir a un lugar que más tarde recibiría como herencia, obedeció y salió sin saber a dónde iba. 9Por la fe se radicó como extranjero en la tierra prometida, y habitó en tiendas de campaña con Isaac y Jacob, herederos también de la misma promesa, 10porque esperaba la ciudad de cimientos sólidos, de la cual Dios es arquitecto y constructor. 11Por la fe Abraham, a pesar de su avanzada edad y de que Sara misma era estéril,* recibió fuerza para tener hijos, porque consideró fiel al que le había hecho la promesa. 12Así que de este solo hombre, ya en decadencia, nacieron descendientes numerosos como las estrellas del cielo e incontables como la arena a la orilla del mar. 13Todos ellos vivieron por la fe, y murieron sin haber recibido las cosas prometidas; más bien, las reconocieron a lo lejos, y confesaron que eran extranjeros y peregrinos en la tierra. scripture from bible gateway http://www.biblegateway.com
