Hebrews 11:24-27
New English Translation
24 By faith, when he grew up, Moses refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter, 25 choosing rather to be ill-treated with the people of God than to enjoy sin’s fleeting pleasure. 26 He regarded abuse suffered for Christ[a] to be greater wealth than the treasures of Egypt, for his eyes were fixed on[b] the reward. 27 By faith he left Egypt without fearing the king’s anger, for he persevered as though he could see the one who is invisible.

24 By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh’s daughter.(A) 25 He chose to be mistreated(B) along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin. 26 He regarded disgrace(C) for the sake of Christ(D) as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward.(E) 27 By faith he left Egypt,(F) not fearing the king’s anger; he persevered because he saw him who is invisible.
Hebrews 11:24-27
King James Version
24 By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter;
25 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;
26 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.
27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
