羅馬書 8:18
I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.
我想,現在的苦楚若比起將來要顯於我們的榮耀就不足介意了。
哥林多後書 4:16
- 17
Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day.
For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.
所以,我們不喪膽。外體雖然毀壞,內心卻一天新似一天。
我們這至暫至輕的苦楚,要為我們成就極重無比、永遠的榮耀。
提摩太後書 2:11
- 12
Here is a trustworthy saying: If we died with him, we will also live with him;
if we endure, we will also reign with him. If we disown him, he will also disown us;
有可信的話說:我們若與基督同死,也必與他同活;
我們若能忍耐,也必和他一同作王;我們若不認他,他也必不認我們;
彼得前書 4:13
But rejoice inasmuch as you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed.
倒要歡喜;因為你們是與基督一同受苦,使你們在他榮耀顯現的時候,也可以歡喜快樂。
羅馬書 8:17
Now if we are children, then we are heirs-heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.
既是兒女,便是後嗣,就是神的後嗣,和基督同作後嗣。如果我們和他一同受苦,也必和他一同得榮耀。
馬太福音 5:11
- 12
"Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me.
Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
「人若因我辱罵你們,逼迫你們,捏造各樣壞話毀謗你們,你們就有福了!
應當歡喜快樂,因為你們在天上的賞賜是大的。在你們以前的先知,人也是這樣逼迫他們。」
