'Suffering' in the Bible

Now Simon's mother-in-law was lying down, suffering with a fever, and at once they told him about her.

But evening being come, when the sun had gone down, they brought to him all that were suffering, and those possessed by demons;

and he healed many who were ill of manifold diseases, and many demons he cast forth, and was not suffering the demons to speak, because they knew him.

For he had healed many, so that all those who {were suffering from diseases} pressed about him in order that they could touch him.

but they have no root within them. They last for a time; then, when suffering or persecution comes because of the Message, they are immediately overthrown.

A woman suffering from bleeding for 12 years

and had endured much [suffering] at the hands of many physicians. She had spent all that she had and was not helped at all, but instead had become worse.

And immediately her {hemorrhage stopped} and she realized in her body that she was healed of her suffering.

But he said to her, "Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be well from your suffering."

And now for the first time He told them, "The Son of Man must endure much suffering, and be rejected by the Elders and the High Priests and the Scribes, and be put to death, and after two days rise to life."

"Elijah," He replied, "does indeed come first and reforms everything; but how is it that it is written of the Son of Man that He will endure much suffering and be held in contempt?

For nation will rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; there will be earthquakes in various places; there will be famines. These things are the beginning of the birth pangs [the intolerable anguish and suffering].

because those days will be a time of suffering, a kind that has not happened from the beginning of God's creation until now, and certainly will never happen again.

"But after the suffering of those days, "The sun will be darkened, the moon will not give its light,

and He said, "Abba! my Father! all things are possible for Thee: take this cup of suffering away from me: and yet not what I desire, but what Thou desirest."
