<TITLE>Hebrews 11</TITLE>
[29]By faith the people crossed the Red Sea as if on dry land, but the Egyptians, when they attempted to do the same, were drowned. [30]By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they had been encircled for seven days. [31]By faith Rahab the prostitute did not perish with those who were disobedient, because she had given a friendly welcome to the spies.

[32]And what more shall I say? For time would fail me to tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets-- [33]who through faith conquered kingdoms, enforced justice, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, [34]quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, were made strong out of weakness, became mighty in war, put foreign armies to flight. [35]Women received back their dead by resurrection. Some were tortured, refusing to accept release, so that they might rise again to a better life. [36]Others suffered mocking and flogging, and even chains and imprisonment. [37]They were stoned, they were sawn in two, they were killed with the sword. They went about in skins of sheep and goats, destitute, afflicted, mistreated-- [38]of whom the world was not worthy--wandering about in deserts and mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.

[39]And all these, though commended through their faith, did not receive what was promised, [40]since God had provided something better for us, that apart from us they should not be made perfect.
