Wherefore it is necessary to be subject, not only on account of wrath, but also on account of conscience.

Suffering

Lo, I know your thoughts, and the devices ye wrongfully imagine against me.

Let not them that are wrongfully mine enemies rejoice over me; let them not wink with the eye that hate me without cause.

They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head; they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored that which I took not away.

All thy commandments are faithfulness. They persecute me wrongfully: help thou me.
