Hebrews 11:32-38

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

What More Shall I Say?

³² And what more may I say? For time will fail me while telling about Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, both David and Samuel, and the prophets, ³³ who through faith conquered kingdoms, worked righteousness^[a], obtained^[b] promises, stopped the mouths of lions, ³⁴ quenched the power of fire, escaped the edges of the sword, were strengthened from weakness, became mighty in battle, put-to-flight armies of foreigners. ³⁵ Women received their dead by resurrection— but others were tortured, not accepting redemption^[c], in order that they might obtain a better resurrection. ³⁶ And others received a trial of mockings and whippings, and furthermore of bonds and prison. ³⁷ They were stoned, they were sawn-in-two, they died by murder of the sword. They went-around in sheepskins, in skins of-goats, being in-need, being afflicted, being mistreated— ³⁸ of whom the world was not worthy— wandering in desolate-places and mountains and caves and openings of the earth.
