爾干罪見撻而忍、何譽之有、若行善受苦而忍、此乃上帝所嘉也、

爾有過、見撻而忍受之、亦何足褒、若爾行善、反遘艱辛、能忍、則為上帝所嘉、

爾有罪惡、見撻而能忍、亦何足褒獎、亦何足褒獎或作有何可誇若爾行善、受苦而能忍、則為天主所嘉、

But how is it to your credit if you receive a beating for doing wrong and endure it? But if you suffer for doing good and you endure it, this is commendable before God.

But suppose you receive a beating for doing wrong, and you put up with it. Will anyone honor you for this? Of course not. But suppose you suffer for doing good, and you put up with it. God will praise you for this.

For what credit is it if, when you sin and are beaten for it, you endure? But if when you do good and suffer for it you endure, this is a gracious thing in the sight of God.

Of course, you get no credit for being patient if you are beaten for doing wrong. But if you suffer for doing good and endure it patiently, God is pleased with you.

For what credit is there if when you do wrong and are beaten, you endure it? But when you do what is good and suffer, if you endure it, this brings favor with God.

For what credit is there if, when you sin and are harshly treated, you endure it with patience? But if when you do what is right and suffer for it you patiently endure it, this finds favor with God.

For what credit is it if, when you are beaten for your faults, you take it patiently? But when you do good and suffer, if you take it patiently, this is commendable before God.

For what glory is it, if, when ye sin, and are buffeted for it, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye shall take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.

For what credit is there if you sin and are punished, and you endure it? But when you do what is good and suffer, if you endure it, this brings favor with God.

因為人若為了讓良心對得起上帝而忍受冤屈之苦，就會得到恩福。

如果上帝的旨意是要你們因行善而受苦，這也總比你們因作惡而受苦強。

為義受迫害的人有福了，因為天國是他們的。「人們因為我的緣故侮辱、迫害、肆意毀謗你們，你們就有福了。要歡喜快樂，因為你們在天上有很大的獎賞。他們也曾這樣迫害以前的先知。

就算你們為義受苦，也是有福的。不要害怕別人的恐嚇，也不要驚慌，

如果你們為基督的緣故受辱駡，就有福了！因為上帝榮耀的靈常住在你們身上。你們誰也不可因殺人、偷盜、作惡或管閒事而受苦。若是為了作基督徒而受苦，不要覺得羞恥，要因這身分歸榮耀給上帝。

我們至今還是又饑又渴，衣不蔽體，遭受毒打，居無定所，

如果你們只愛那些愛你們的人，有什麼功勞呢？就是罪人也會這樣做。

你們要察驗什麼是主所喜悅的事，

他們就吐唾沫在祂臉上，揮拳打祂。還有人一邊打祂耳光，一邊說：

如果你們只問候自己的弟兄，有什麼特別呢？就是外族人也會這樣做。

我現在樣樣都有，豐富有餘。我從以巴弗提手上收到了你們送給我的禮物，已經充足了。這些饋贈是蒙上帝悅納的馨香祭物。

有幾個人向祂吐唾沫，蒙上祂的眼睛，揮拳打祂，嘲笑祂說：「你說預言吧！」衛兵押祂下去時，也打祂。

所以，弟兄姊妹，我憑上帝的憐憫勸你們獻上自己的身體，作聖潔、蒙上帝悅納的活祭。你們理當這樣事奉。你們不可追隨世界的潮流，要隨著思想的不斷更新而改變，這樣就能明辨上帝的旨意，知道什麼是良善、純全、蒙祂悅納的。
