Hebrews 11:3-4

New International Version

³ By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command,^(A) so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.

⁴ By faith Abel brought God a better offering than Cain did. By faith he was commended^(B) as righteous, when God spoke well of his offerings.^(C) And by faith Abel still speaks, even though he is dead.^(D)
