And ye became imitators of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Spirit;

for this cause, brethren, we were comforted over you in all our distress and affliction through your faith:

if so be that it is righteous thing with God to recompense affliction to them that afflict you,

Pure religion and undefiled before our God and Father is this, to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.
