Hobab answered,“ No. I can’t go. I’m going back to my own land. I’m returning to my own people.”

But he said to him,“ I will not go. I will depart to my own land and to my kindred.”

But Hobab replied,“ No, I will not go. I must return to my own land and family.”

But he replied to him,“ I don’t want to go. Instead, I will go to my own land and my relatives.”

But he said to him,“ I will not come, but rather will go to my own land and relatives.”

And he said to him,“ I will not go, but I will depart to my own land and to my relatives.”

And he said unto him, I will not go; but I will depart to mine own land, and to my kindred.

But he replied to him,“ I don’t want to go. Instead, I will go to my own land and my relatives.”

And he said unto him, I will not go; but I will depart to mine own land, and to my kindred.

But Hobab said to him,“ I will not go, but I will go instead to my own land and to my kindred.”

He said to him,“ I will not go; but I will depart to my own land, and to my relatives.”

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.

“ If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters— yes, even their own life— such a person cannot be my disciple.

“ Look,” said Naomi,“ your sister-in-law is going back to her people and her gods. Go back with her.”But Ruth replied,“ Don’t urge me to leave you or to turn back from you. Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God.Where you die I will die, and there I will be buried. May the Lord deal with me, be it ever so severely, if even death separates you and me.”

“‘ I will not,’ he answered, but later he changed his mind and went.

Now you have gone off because you longed to return to your father’s household. But why did you steal my gods?”

The Lord had said to Abram,“ Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you.

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.

So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer.

Listen, daughter, and pay careful attention: Forget your people and your father’s house.
