³ knowing that the proof of your faith doth work endurance,

³ And not only `so', but we also boast in the tribulations, knowing that the tribulation doth work endurance;

⁴ and the endurance, experience; and the experience, hope;

³⁶ for of patience ye have need, that the will of God having done, ye may receive the promise,

⁷ that the proof of your faith -- much more precious than of gold that is perishing, and through fire being approved -- may be found to praise, and honour, and glory, in the revelation of Jesus Christ,

¹⁷ for the momentary light matter of our tribulation, more and more exceedingly an age-during weight of glory doth work out for us --

⁶ and in the knowledge the temperance, and in the temperance the endurance, and in the endurance the piety,

²⁸ And we have known that to those loving God all things do work together for good, to those who are called according to purpose;

¹¹ in all might being made mighty according to the power of His glory, to all endurance and long-suffering with joy.

⁵ and the Lord direct your hearts to the love of God, and to the endurance of the Christ.

⁷ to those, indeed, who in continuance of a good work, do seek glory, and honour, and incorruptibility -- life age-during;

⁴ for, as many things as were written before, for our instruction were written before, that through the endurance, and the exhortation of the Writings, we might have the hope.

¹ Therefore, we also having so great a cloud of witnesses set around us, every weight having put off, and the closely besetting sin, through endurance may we run the contest that is set before us,

⁴ so that we ourselves do glory in you in the assemblies of God, for your endurance and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye bear;
