'Suffer' in the Bible
You greatly rejoice in this, even though you have to suffer various kinds of trials for a little while,
For it is a fine thing if, when moved by your conscience to please God, you suffer patiently when wronged.
What good does it do if, when you sin, you patiently receive punishment for it? But if you suffer for doing good and receive it patiently, you have God's approval.
But even if you should suffer for doing what is right, you are blessed. "Never be afraid of their threats, and never get upset.
After all, if it is the will of God, it is better to suffer for doing right than for doing wrong.
Of course, none of you should suffer for being a murderer, thief, criminal, or troublemaker.
But if you suffer for being a Christian, do not feel ashamed, but glorify God with that name.
So then, those who suffer according to God's will should entrust their souls to their faithful Creator and continue to do what is good.
