But, in so far as ye are taking fellowship in the Christ's sufferings, rejoice! in order that, in the revealing of his glory also, ye may rejoice with exultation: If ye are being reproached in the name of Christ, happy are ye ! Because, the Spirit, of the glory, and the Spirit of God, unto you is bringing rest.
Now, am I rejoicing in the sufferings on your behalf, and am filling up the things that lack of the tribulations of the Christ, in my flesh, in behalf of his body, which is the assembly,
Because, unto you, hath it been given as a favour, in behalf of Christ, not only, on him, to believe, but also, in his behalf, to suffer: -
If we endure, we shall also reign together; If we shall deny, he also, will deny us,
For, I, will let him understand how many things he must needs, for my name, suffer.
To get to know him, and the power of his resurrection and fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed unto his death, -
In the selfsame way moreover, even the Spirit, helpeth together in our weakness, - for, what we should pray for as we ought, we know not, but, the Spirit itself, maketh intercession with sighings unutterable,
And, if children, heirs also - heirs, indeed, of God, but co-heirs with Christ, - if, at least, we are suffering together, in order that we may also be glorified together. For I reckon that unworthy are the sufferings of the present season to be compared with the glory about to be revealed towards us; For, the eager outlook of creation, ardently awaiteth the revealing of the sons of God, - read more.
For, unto vanity, hath creation been made subject - not by choice, but by reason of him that made it subject, in hope That, creation itself also, shall be freed - from the bondage of the decay into the freedom of the glory of the sons of God; For we know that, all creation, is sighing together, and travailing-in-birth-throes together until the present, - And, not only so, but, we ourselves, also, who have the first-fruit of the Spirit - weeven ourselves, within our own selves do sigh, - sonship ardently awaiting - the redeeming of our body; -

And toil, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless, being persecuted, we hold on, Being defamed, we beseech: as the sweepings of the world have we become, the offscouring of all - until even now.
And so, our hope, is sure in your behalf, - knowing that, - as ye are sharers of the sufferings, so, also of the encouragement.
For, evermore, we, the living, unto death are being delivered, for Jesus' sake, in order that, the life also of Jesus, may be made manifest in our mortal flesh: So that, his death, in us, doth energise, but, his life, in you. Howbeit, seeing that we have the same spirit of faith, according to that which is written - I believed, therefore I spake, we, also believe, therefore also we speak: read more.
Knowing that, he who raised up the Lord Jesus, will raise up, us also, together with Jesus, and will present us together with you. For, all things, are for your sakes, in order that, the favour abounding, may, through means of the greater number, cause, the thanksgiving, to superabound unto the glory of God. Wherefore we faint not, but, even if, our outer man, is decaying, nevertheless, our inner man , is renewing day by day. For, the momentary lightness of thee tribulation, in a manner yet more and more excelling, is working out for us, an age-abiding weight of glory, - So long as we are not looking out for the visible things, but for the invisible; for, the visible things, are temporary, whereas, the invisible, are age-abiding.
