But if [it begins] out from us first, what will be the outcome for those who are disobedient to the gospel of God? ¹⁸ And if the righteous are saved with difficulty, {what will become of the ungodly and the sinner}? ¹⁹ So then also those who suffer according to the will of God must entrust their souls to a faithful Creator in doing good.
