He Stopped the Mouths of Lions
KJV Hebrews 11:32 And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, and of Barak,
and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets: 33 Who through faith
subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, 34 Quenched
the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in
fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens. 35 Women received their dead raised to life again: and others
were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection: 36 And others had trial
of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment: 37 They were stoned, they
were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and
goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented; 38 (Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in
deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth. 39 And these all, having obtained a good
report through faith, received not the promise: 40 God having provided some better thing for us, that they
without us should not be made perfect.
