Hebrews 11:37-39

Worldwide English (New Testament)

³⁷ They were killed with stones. They were tested. They were cut in pieces. They were killed with swords. They walked about wearing skins of sheep and goats. They were very poor. They were treated very badly. They were punished.

³⁸ They were really too good to be in this world. They walked about in the desert and in the mountains, and in the holes in the hills and in the holes among the rocks on the earth.

³⁹ All of these people had good things said about them because they believed God. But they did not get what God had promised.
