Hebrews 11:4-5

4By faith 1Abel offered to God a better sacrifice than Cain, through which he 2obtained the testimony that he was righteous, God testifying 3about his 4gifts, and through 5faith, though 6he is dead, he still speaks.

5By faith 7Enoch was taken up so that he would not 8see death; and he was not found because God took him up; for he obtained the witness that before his being taken up he was pleasing to God.
