This

for what renown is it, if sinning and being buffeted, ye do endure it? but if, doing good and suffering for it, ye do endure, this is gracious with God,

and -- if ye love those loving you, what grace have ye? for also the sinful love those loving them;

For conscience

but if ye also should suffer because of righteousness, happy are ye! and of their fear be not afraid, nor be troubled,

Happy those persecuted for righteousness' sake -- because theirs is the reign of the heavens.

but all these things will they do to you, because of my name, because they have not known Him who sent me;

Wherefore it is necessary to be subject, not only because of the wrath, but also because of the conscience,

for which cause also these things I suffer, but I am not ashamed, for I have known in whom I have believed, and have been persuaded that he is able that which I have committed to him to guard -- to that day.

Suffering

Lo, I have known your thoughts, And the devices against me ye do wrongfully.

Mine enemies rejoice not over me with falsehood, Those hating me without cause wink the eye.

And mine enemies are lively, They have been strong, and those hating me without cause, Have been multiplied.

Those hating me without cause Have been more than the hairs of my head, Mighty have been my destroyers, My lying enemies, That which I took not away -- I bring back.

All Thy commands are faithfulness, With falsehood they have pursued me, Help Thou me.
