32What more am I to say? For there would not be time to give the stories of Gideon, Barak, Samson, and Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets:
33Who through faith overcame kingdoms, did righteousness, got their reward, kept the mouths of lions shut,
34Put out the power of fire, got safely away from the edge of the sword, were made strong when they had been feeble, became full of power in war, and put to flight the armies of the nations.
35Women had their dead given back to them living; others let themselves be cruelly attacked, having no desire to go free, so that they might have a better life to come;
36And others were tested by being laughed at or by blows, and even with chains and prisons:
37They were stoned, they were cut up with knives, they were tested, they were put to death with the sword, they went about in sheepskins and in goatskins; being poor and in pain and cruelly attacked,
38Wandering in waste places and in mountains and in holes in the rocks; for whom the world was not good enough.
