Hebrews 11:32-38
32And what more shall I say? For time would fail me to tell of aGideon, bBarak, cSamson, dJephthah, of eDavid and fSamuel and the prophets— 33who through faith conquered kingdoms, enforced justice, obtained promises, gstopped the mouths of lions, 34 hquenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, were made strong out of weakness, ibecame mighty in war, jput foreign armies to flight. 35 kWomen received back their dead by resurrection. Some were tortured, refusing to accept release, so that they might rise again to a better life. 36Others suffered mocking and flogging, and even lchains and imprisonment. 37 mThey were stoned, they were sawn in two, ▼▼Some manuscripts add they were tempted
othey were killed with the sword. pThey went about in skins of sheep and goats, destitute, afflicted, mistreated— 38of whom the world was not worthy— qwandering about in deserts and mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.
