Comfort in Suffering

3 aBlessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,  
4 who acomforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any1 trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.  
5 For as athe sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our1 consolation also abounds through Christ.  
6 Now if we are afflicted, ait is for your consolation and salvation, which is effective for enduring the same sufferings which we also suffer. Or if we are comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation.  
7 And our hope for you is steadfast, because we know that aas you are partakers of the sufferings, so also you will partake of the consolation.  

Delivered from Suffering

8 For we do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, of aour trouble which came to us in Asia: that we were burdened beyond measure, above strength, so that we despaired even of life.
