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.

For what glory[ is it], if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer[ for it], ye take it patiently, this[ is] acceptable with God.

For what credit is it if you sin and are mistreated and endure it? But if you do good and suffer and so endure, this finds favor with God.

For what glory is it if, when you sin, you patiently endure beating? But if, when you do well, you patiently endure suffering, this is commendable with God.

爾受枉、緣上帝而忍之、則可嘉矣、

若上帝旨、使爾為善遘難、較為惡受苦者、超軼遠矣、

為義而見窘逐者福矣、以天國乃其國也、為我而受人詬誶窘逐、惡言誹謗者福矣、當欣喜歡樂、以在天爾得賞者大也、蓋人窘逐先知、自昔然矣、○

緣義受害、必蒙綏祉、人有危言、勿憂勿懼、

爾為基督名見詬、則有福矣、煥乎上帝之神牖爾衷、人謗讟基督、而爾稱讚之、爾勿兇暴姦宄、行惡滋事、以逢譴責、然宗基督而受害、初無愧怍、又當歸榮上帝、

迄於今、我儕饑渴、裸裎、受撻、靡有定處、

爾而愛愛爾者、何惠之有、蓋罪人亦愛愛己者、

以明主所悅、

眾唾其面、拳擊之、有手批之者、

爾獨友於兄弟、有何過人耶、稅吏不亦如是乎、

我得諸物有餘、以巴弗提以爾馨香可納之胙、上帝所悅者惠我、我受之甚饒、

或唾耶穌、掩其面、拳擊之曰、試言擊爾者誰、諸僕亦手批之、○

兄弟乎我念上帝憐憫、勸爾獻身為活祭、成聖、此上帝所喜、當然之役也、勿從世、心維新、以明上帝所喜全善之意、
