'Patient' in the Bible
What is my strength, that I should wait? And what is mine end, that I should be patient?
Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof; and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit.
rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing stedfastly in prayer;
But whether we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; or whether we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which worketh in the patient enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer:
Be patient therefore, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it, until it receive the early and latter rain.
Be ye also patient; establish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord is at hand.
