若為作基督徒受苦，卻不要羞恥，倒要因這名歸榮耀給神。
哥林多後書 12:9
But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.
他對我說：「我的恩典夠你用的，因為我的能力是在人的軟弱上顯得完全。」所以，我更喜歡誇自己的軟弱，好叫基督的能力覆庇我。

Dear friends, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal that has come on you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you.
But rejoice inasmuch as you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed.
親愛的弟兄啊，有火煉的試驗臨到你們，不要以為奇怪（似乎是遭遇非常的事）
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。
詩篇 138:7
- 8
Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life. You stretch out your hand against the anger of my foes; with your right hand you save me.
The Lord will vindicate me; your love, Lord, endures forever- do not abandon the works of your hands.
我雖行在患難中，你必將我救活；我的仇敵發怒，你必伸手抵擋他們；你的右手也必救我。
耶和華必成全關乎我的事；耶和華啊，你的慈愛永遠長存！求你不要離棄你手所造的。

羅馬書 8:35
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?
誰能使我們與基督的愛隔絕呢？難道是患難嗎？是困苦嗎？是逼迫嗎？是飢餓嗎？是赤身露體嗎？是危險嗎？是刀劍嗎？
哥林多後書 4:8
- 9
We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair;
persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.
我們四面受敵，卻不被困住；心裡作難，卻不至失望；
遭逼迫，卻不被丟棄；打倒了，卻不至死亡。

約伯記 5:7
Yet man is born to trouble as surely as sparks fly upward.
人生在世必遇患難，如同火星飛騰。
腓立比書 3:13
Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead,
弟兄們，我不是以為自己已經得著了；我只有一件事，就是忘記背後，努力面前的，
腓立比書 4:6
- 7
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
應當一無掛慮，只要凡事藉著禱告、祈求，和感謝，將你們所要的告訴神。
神所賜、出人意外的平安必在基督耶穌裡保守你們的心懷意念。
雅各書 1:2
- 11
Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds,
because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.
Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.
But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.
That person should not expect to receive anything from the Lord.
Such a person is double-minded and unstable in all they do.
Believers in humble circumstances ought to take pride in their high position.
But the rich should take pride in their humiliation-since they will pass away like a wild flower.
For the sun rises with scorching heat and withers the plant; its blossom falls and its beauty is destroyed. In the same way, the rich will fade away even while they go about their business.
我的弟兄們，你們落在百般試煉中，都要以為大喜樂；
因為知道你們的信心經過試驗，就生忍耐。
但忍耐也當成功，使你們成全、完備，毫無缺欠。
你們中間若有缺少智慧的，應當求那厚賜與眾人、也不斥責人的神，主就必賜給他。
只要憑著信心求，一點不疑惑；因為那疑惑的人，就像海中的波浪，被風吹動翻騰。
這樣的人不要想從主那裡得什麼。
心懷二意的人，在他一切所行的路上都沒有定見。
卑微的弟兄升高，就該喜樂；
富足的降卑，也該如此；因為他必要過去，如同草上的花一樣。
太陽出來，熱風颳起，草就枯乾，花也凋謝，美容就消沒了；那富足的人，在他所行的事上也要這樣衰殘。
詩篇 73:26
My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.
我的肉體和我的心腸衰殘；但神是我心裡的力量，又是我的福分，直到永遠。
箴言 24:10
If you falter in a time of trouble, how small is your strength!
你在患難之日若膽怯，你的力量就微小。
馬太福音 10:30
And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
就是你們的頭髮也都被數過了。
羅馬書 8:37
No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.
然而，靠著愛我們的主，在這一切的事上已經得勝有餘了。
腓立比書 4:13
I can do all this through him who gives me strength.
我靠著那加給我力量的，凡事都能做。
希伯來書 6:10
God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them.
因為神並非不公義，竟忘記你們所做的工和你們為他名所顯的愛心，就是先前伺候聖徒，如今還是伺候。
箴言 3:5
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;
你要專心仰賴耶和華，不可倚靠自己的聰明，
羅馬書 5:3
- 5
Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance;
perseverance, character; and character, hope.
And hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.
不但如此，就是在患難中也是歡歡喜喜的；因為知道患難生忍耐，
忍耐生老練，老練生盼望；
盼望不至於羞恥，因為所賜給我們的聖靈將神的愛澆灌在我們心裡。
羅馬書 8:28
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
我們曉得萬事都互相效力，叫愛神的人得益處，就是按他旨意被召的人。
