不第此也、亦樂於患難、蓋知患難生強忍、

不但如此，就是在患难中也是欢欢喜喜的；因为知道患难生忍耐，

不但如此，就是在患难中也是欢欢喜喜的，因为知道患难生忍耐，

不但如此，就是在患难中也是欢欢喜喜的，因为知道患难生忍耐，

不但如此，我们在苦难中也欢喜，因为知道苦难使人生忍耐，

不但这样，我们更以患难为荣；知道患难产生忍耐，

不仅如此，我们也以患难夸耀，因为我们知道患难生出忍耐，

不但如此，我們竟拿苦難而歡喜誇勝呢，因為知道苦難能生出堅忍，

不僅如此，我們也以患難誇耀，因為我們知道患難生出忍耐，

不第此、所喜又在患難、蓋知患難生強忍、

不第此也、亦以患難為樂、以患難為樂或作因患難而誇因知患難生忍耐、

不寧惟是、吾人雖處患難、心中恆有至樂。蓋知患難所以生堅忍、

Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance;

And that’s not all. We are full of joy even when we suffer. We know that our suffering gives us the strength to go on.

Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance,

We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance.

And not only that, but we also boast in our afflictions, because we know that affliction produces endurance,

And not only this, but we also celebrate in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance;

And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance;

And not only so, but we also rejoice in our tribulations: knowing that tribulation worketh stedfastness;

And not only that, but we also rejoice in our afflictions, because we know that affliction produces endurance,

And not only[ so], but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;

Not only this, but we also rejoice in sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance,

Not only this, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces perseverance;

我兄弟乎、爾罹諸試、當悉以為樂、因知爾信之經驗、乃致忍也、

忍試者福矣、蓋既經驗必受維生之冕、即主所許於愛己者、

主曰、吾恩於爾足矣、我之能於弱者而成全之、故我欣然、寧誇我弱、使基督之能庇我、我為基督、以荏弱、凌辱、空乏、窘逐、阨窮為喜、蓋我弱時則強焉、○

若因義受苦、則福矣、勿畏其威、勿為所撼、

為人子而人惡爾、絕爾、詈爾、以爾名為惡而棄之、爾則福矣、當日宜欣喜踴躍、以爾在天之賞大也、蓋其祖行於先知亦如是、

蓋我暫而且微之苦、適成我儕隆重悠久之榮、

若以爾信之祭祀奉事、我被灌奠其上、我亦樂之、且與爾眾同樂、爾亦當樂之、且與我同樂焉、○

誰能間我於基督之愛、或患難、阨窮、窘逐、飢餓、裸裎、艱危、白刃乎、如經云、我儕緣爾終日見殺、視如將宰之羊、然我儕於此諸事、賴愛我者勝而有餘、

使徒去公會而喜、以其為斯名受辱、主視之為宜也、

爾之生、將於恆忍得之、○

故我求爾、勿以我為爾受難而疲憊、斯乃爾榮、○

彼基督之役乎、我則逾之、此言若狂、蓋我多勤勞、多繫獄、數被箠楚、屢瀕於死、受猶太人鞭者五、每四十減一、杖責者三、石擊者一、舟壞者三、一日夜在深海、屢經跋涉、危於河、危於寇、危於同族、危於異邦、危於邑、危於野、危於海、危於偽兄弟、勞而苦、屢廢寢、飢而渴、屢絕食、寒而裸、此外更有日集於我者、即為諸會之慮也、誰弱而我不弱乎、誰躓而我心不如焚乎、我若必誇、則誇我弱、

彼乃暫依己意而懲、惟此則為我之益、使我與其聖也、凡懲之之時、似非樂、而為憂、後則由懲生練而結和平之果、即義也、

惟因為基督徒而受苦、則毋愧、乃緣此名歸榮上帝也、蓋時至則鞫自上帝之家始、若自我儕始、彼不服上帝福音者、其終將何如哉、

蓋因基督賜爾、不第信之、亦為之受苦、

為義而見窘逐者福矣、以天國為其有也、為我而人詬爾窘爾、妄以諸惡誣爾、爾福矣、宜欣喜歡樂、以爾在天之賞大也、蓋前乎爾之先知、人亦如是窘逐之、○
