Verse
Hebrews - ch 11 v 21 - 40
- By faith Jacob dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and adored the top of his rod.
- By faith Joseph, when he was dying, made mention of the going out of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones.
- By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months by his parents; because they saw he was a comely babe, and they feared not the king's edict.
- By faith Moses, when he was grown up, denied himself to be the son of Pharao's daughter;
- Rather choosing to be afflicted with the people of God, than to have the pleasure of sin for a time,
- Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasure of the Egyptians. For he looked unto the reward.
- By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the fierceness of the king: for he endured as seeing him that is invisible.
- By faith he celebrated the pasch, and the shedding of the blood; that he, who destroyed the firstborn, might not touch them.
- By faith they passed through the Red Sea, as by dry land: which the Egyptians attempting, were swallowed up.
- By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, by the going round them seven days.
- By faith Rahab the harlot perished not with the unbelievers, receiving the spies with peace.
- And what shall I yet say? For the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, Barac, Samson, Jephthe, David, Samuel, and the prophets:
- Who by faith conquered kingdoms, wrought justice, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
- Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, recovered strength from weakness, became valiant in battle, put to flight the armies of foreigners:
- Women received their dead raised to life again. But others were racked, not accepting deliverance, that they might find a better resurrection.
- And others had trial of mockeries and stripes, moreover also of bands and prisons.
- They were stoned, they were cut asunder, they were tempted, they were put to death by the sword, they wandered about in sheepskins, in goatskins, being in want, distressed, afflicted:
- Of whom the world was not worthy; wandering in deserts, in mountains, and in dens, and in caved of the earth.
- And all these being approved by the testimony of faith, received not the promise;
- God providing some better thing for us, that they should not be perfected without us.
