⁴ “I am ^(A)a stranger and a sojourner among you; ^(B)give me ^[a]a ^(C)burial site among you that I may bury my dead out of my sight.”

¹⁵ For ^(A)we are sojourners before You, and tenants, as all our fathers were; ^(B)our days on the earth are like a shadow, and there is no hope.

^13 (A)All these died in faith, ^(B)without receiving the promises, but ^(C)having seen them and having welcomed them from a distance, and ^(D)having confessed that they were strangers and exiles on the earth.

^11 (A)Beloved, ^(B)I urge you as ^(C)aliens and strangers to abstain from ^(D)fleshly lusts which wage ^(E)war against the soul.
