Hebrews 11:39 Context
37They were stoned, they were sawen asunder, were tempted, were slaine with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskinnes, and goat skins, being destitute, afflicted, tormented. 38Of whome the world was not worthy: they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dennes and caues of the earth. 39And these all hauing obtained a good report through faith, receiued not the promise: 40God hauing prouided some better thing for vs, that they without vs, should not be made perfect.
