By which ye are transported with joy, now for a little, (if it is necessary,) having grieved in various temptations:

Whom not having seen, ye love; in whom, now not seeing, but believing, ye are transported with joy unalterable, and highly valued:

And ye yourselves are built, as living stones, a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to bring up spiritual sacrifice; acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

(As Sara listened to Abraham, calling him lord: whose children ye are,) doing good, and not fearing any terror.

But if ye also suffer for justice, happy are ye: be not afraid of their fear, neither be troubled;

In which they are astonished, you not running together in the same pouring out of lavish expense, blaspheming:

Whom resist firm in the faith, knowing that the same of sufferings are completed by your brotherhood in the world.
