Hebrews 11:32-40
32AndG2532 whatG5101 moreG2089 shall I sayG3004? TimeG5550 will not allowG1952 meG1473 to tellG1334 ofG4012 GideonG1066, BarakG913, SamsonG4546, JephthahG2422, DavidG1138, SamuelG4545, andG2532 theG3588 prophetsG4396, 33whoG3739 throughG1223 faithG4102 conqueredG2610 kingdomsG932, administeredG2038 justiceG1343, and gainedG2013 what was promisedG1860; who shutG5420 the mouthsG4750 of lionsG3023, 34quenchedG4570 the ragingG1411 fireG4442, and escapedG5343 the edgeG4750 of the swordG3162; who gained strengthG1412 fromG575 weaknessG769, becameG1096 mightyG2478 inG1722 battleG4171, and putG2827 foreignG245 armies to flightG3925.
35WomenG1135 received backG2983 theirG846 deadG3498, raised to life againG1537G386. OthersG243 were torturedG5178 and refusedG3756G4327 their releaseG629, so thatG2443 they might gainG5177 a betterG2909 resurrectionG386. 36Still othersG2087 enduredG2983G3984 mockingG1701 andG2532 floggingG3148, andG1161 evenG2089 chainsG1199 andG2532 imprisonmentG5438.
37They were stonedG3034, they were sawed in twoG4249,1 they were put to deathG599 byG1722 the swordG3162. They went aroundG4022 inG1722 sheepskinsG3374 and goatskinsG122G1192, destituteG5302, oppressedG2346, and mistreatedG2558. 38TheG3588 worldG2889 wasG1510 notG3756 worthyG514 ofG3739 them. They wanderedG4105 inG1909 desertsG2047 andG2532 mountainsG3735, andG2532 hid in cavesG4693 andG2532 holesG3692 in theG3588 groundG1093.
TheseG3778 were allG3956 commendedG3140 forG1223 their faithG4102, yet they did not receiveG3756G2865 whatG3588 was promisedG1860. 40GodG2316 had plannedG4265 somethingG5100 betterG2909 forG4012 usG1473, so thatG2443 together withG3361G5565 usG1473 they would be made perfectG5048.
