Hebrews 11:2-4
2For by it the 1people of old 23gained approval.
3By faith we understand that the 45world has been created 6by the word of God so that what is seen 7has not been made out of things that are visible. 4By faith 8Abel offered to God a better sacrifice than Cain, through which he was 9attested to be righteous, God testifying 10about his 11gifts, and through 12faith, though 13he is dead, he still speaks.
