35Women received back their dead, raised to life again. Others were tortured and refused their release, so that they might gain a better resurrection.
36Still others endured mocking and flogging, and even chains and imprisonment.
37They were stoned, they were sawed in two, they were put to death by the sword. They went around in sheepskins and goatskins, destitute, oppressed, and mistreated.
38The world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains, and hid in caves and holes in the ground.
— Hebrews 11:35-38
