Hebrews 11:37-39

EasyEnglish Bible

³⁷ Some of them died when people killed them with stones. Some of them died when people cut them into two pieces. Some of them died when people killed them with swords. Some of these people wore the skins of sheep and goats while they travelled about. They were very poor and they had a lot of trouble. People did bad things to them. ³⁸ These people who trusted God were too good for this world. Some of them had to travel about in the wilderness and on the hills. Some had to live in holes in the rocks and in the ground.

³⁹ God said good things about all these people because they trusted him. But they still did not receive everything that God had promised to give to them.^[a]
