@ Anonymous: its actually is a good translation,and the Hebrew grammar is correct. what you wrote in Hebrew I will translate as: Faith means to trust hope and count on whats hidden from the aye. its perfectly proper Hebrew grammar.

Hi Jessy,

Your translation actually says "Faith is trusting in hope and relying on what's hidden from the eye". It's not a very good translation.

The translation suggested by Anonymous is much better.

I guess Jotii wanted to find the actual verse in Hebrew rather than "Hebrews 11:1" in Hebrew...

Anyway, if you were looking for "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" - in Hebrew it's:

כי האמונה היא בטחון במה-שנצפה לו והוכחת דברים שאינם נראים

@Jotii - There are several ways to write "Hebrews 11:1", I prefer this:
אל העברים י"א 1

You should be aware though, this book was not originally written in Hebrew, but in Greek.

Please send contact info for the 'Free Girl'. At that price I may just order a dozen. Seriously, the only step downhill from this unfortunate error is to even (mis-)spell Hinam backwards: Ani Maniac. Your site should be required reading before getting a tattoo. Yi'shar Hashmal, Typo.

Or as they say in the Free/Open Source Software community, free as in beer versus free as in speach.
I actually appreciate this rare occasion where Hebrew is richer than English. The FOSS comunity here came up with חופשי זה יותר מחינם, or Chofshy ze yoter me'chinam, which means free(dom) is more than free (cost)
