Hebrews:11:32-40

*
And what more shall I say ?
For the time would fail me to tell of Gideon and Barak and Samson and Jephthah ,
also of David and Samuel and the prophets :
*
who through faith subdued kingdoms ,
worked righteousness ,
obtained promises ,
stopped the mouths of lions ,
*
quenched the violence of fire ,
escaped the edge of the sword ,
out of weakness were made strong ,
became valiant in battle ,
turned to flight the armies of the aliens .
*
Women received their dead raised to life again .
Others were tortured ,
not accepting deliverance ,
that they might obtain a better resurrection .
*
Still others had trial of mockings and scourgings ,
yes ,
and of chains and imprisonment .
*
They were stoned ,
they were sawn in two ,
were tempted ,
were slain with the sword .
They wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins ,
being destitute ,
afflicted ,
tormented --
*
of whom the world was not worthy .
They wandered in deserts and mountains ,
in dens and caves of the earth .
*
And all these ,
having obtained a good testimony through faith ,
did not receive the promise ,
*
God having provided something better for us ,
that they should not be made perfect apart from us .
