Hebrews 11:16-18
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
16 But the truth is that they were yearning for and aspiring to a better and more desirable country, that is, a heavenly [one]. For that reason God is not ashamed to be called their God [even to be surnamed their God—the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob], for He has prepared a city for them.(A)

18 Of whom it was said, Through Isaac shall your descendants be reckoned.(C)
