Hebrews
11
23
By faith, when Moses was born, his parents hid him for three months, because they saw the child was beautiful and they were not afraid of the king's edict.
24
By faith, when he grew up, Moses refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter,
25
choosing rather to be ill-treated with the people of God than to enjoy sin's fleeting pleasure.
26
He regarded abuse suffered for Christ to be greater wealth than the treasures of Egypt, for his eyes were fixed on the reward.
27
By faith he left Egypt without fearing the king's anger, for he persevered as though he could see the one who is invisible.
28
By faith he kept the Passover and the sprinkling of the blood, so that the one who destroyed the firstborn would not touch them.
29
By faith they crossed the Red Sea as if on dry ground, but when the Egyptians tried it, they were swallowed up.
30
By faith the walls of Jericho fell after the people marched around them for seven days.
31
By faith Rahab the prostitute escaped the destruction of the disobedient, because she welcomed the spies in peace.
32
And what more shall I say? For time will fail me if I tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets.
33
Through faith they conquered kingdoms, administered justice, gained what was promised, shut the mouths of lions,
34
quenched raging fire, escaped the edge of the sword, gained strength in weakness, became mighty in battle, put foreign armies to flight,
35
and women received back their dead raised to life. But others were tortured, not accepting release, to obtain resurrection to a better life.
36
And others experienced mocking and flogging, and even chains and imprisonment.
37
They were stoned, sawed apart, murdered with the sword; they went about in sheepskins and goatskins; they were destitute, afflicted, ill-treated
38
(the world was not worthy of them); they wandered in deserts and mountains and caves and openings in the earth.
39
And these all were commended for their faith, yet they did not receive what was promised.
40
For God had provided something better for us, so that they would be made perfect together with us.
