Hebrews 11:12-14
New American Standard Bible
12 Therefore even from one man, and (A)one who was as good as dead [a]at that, there were born descendants who were (B)just as the stars of heaven in number, and as the innumerable grains of sand along the seashore.
13 (C)All these died in faith, (D)without receiving the promises, but (E)having seen and welcomed them from a distance, and (F)having confessed that they were strangers and exiles on the earth. 14 For those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a country of their own.

Hebrews 11:12-14
New International Version
12 And so from this one man, and he as good as dead,(A) came descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as countless as the sand on the seashore.(B)
13 All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised;(C) they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance,(D) admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth.(E) 14 People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own.
