Hebrews 11:25-27
1599 Geneva Bible
25 And chose rather to suffer adversity with the people of God, than to enjoy the [a]pleasures of sin for a season,
26 Esteeming the rebuke of Christ greater riches, than the treasures of Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompense of the reward.
27 By faith he forsook Egypt, and feared not the fierceness of the king: for he endured, as he that saw him which is invisible.

Hebrews 11:25-27
New International Version
25 He chose to be mistreated(A) along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin. 26 He regarded disgrace(B) for the sake of Christ(C) as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward.(D) 27 By faith he left Egypt,(E) not fearing the king’s anger; he persevered because he saw him who is invisible.
