11:35 Women received their dead by a resurrection: and others were tortured, not accepting their deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection: 11:36 and others had trial of mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment: 11:37 they were stoned, they were sawn asunder, they were tempted, they were slain with the sword: they went about in sheepskins, in goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, ill-treated 11:38 (of whom the world was not worthy), wandering in deserts and mountains and caves, and the holes of the earth. 11:39 And these all, having had witness borne to them through their faith, received not the promise, 11:40 God having provided some better thing concerning us, that apart from us they should not be made perfect. 12:1 Therefore let us also, seeing we are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, 12:2 looking unto Jesus the author and perfecter of `our' faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising shame, and hath sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. 12:3 For consider him that hath endured such gainsaying of sinners against himself, that ye wax not weary, fainting in your souls.
