因此，那些照着神的旨意受苦的人，要藉着行善把自己的灵魂交托给那位信实的造物主。

耶稣稍往前走，把脸伏在地上祷告说：“我父啊，如果有可能，让这杯离开我吧！但不要照我的意愿，而要照你的意愿。”

然而，即使你们为义受苦，也是蒙福的。不要怕他们所惧怕的，也不要惊慌不安，

因为神的旨意就是要你们藉着行善，堵住那些愚妄人无知的口。

就是说，如果你们因犯罪受责打而忍耐，有什么可称赞的呢？但如果你们因行善受苦害而忍耐，这在神看来是可称赞的。

我们既然不能说服保罗，就都安静下来，只说：“愿主的旨意成就。”

耶稣第二次又去祷告说：“我父啊，如果这杯不能离开我，一定要我喝下，那就愿你的旨意成就！”

你们当中不可有人因杀人、偷窃、作恶、好管闲事而受苦；
