so that we ourselves rejoice of you in the congregations of God, over your patience and faith in all your persecutions, and tribulations that ye suffer:

A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench: but faithfully and truly shall he give judgment. He shall neither be overseen nor hasty, that he may restore righteousness unto the earth: and the Gentiles also shall keep his laws.

but in all things let us behave ourselves as the ministers of God. In much patience, in afflictions, in necessity, in anguish, in stripes, in prisonment, in strife, in labour, in watching, in fasting, in pureness, in knowledge, in longsuffering, in kindness, in the holy ghost, in love unfeigned,read more.

My brethren, count it exceeding joy when ye fall into divers temptations, forasmuch as ye know how that the trying of your faith bringeth patience: and let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and sound, lacking nothing.

Happy is the man that endureth in temptation, for when he is tried he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.

Rejoice in hope. Be patient in tribulation, continue in prayer.
