English Standard Version 2025

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

and endurance produces character, and character produces hope

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

no weapon that is fashioned against you shall succeed,
and you shall refute every tongue that rises against you in judgment.
This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD
and their vindication from me, declares the LORD.”

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;
and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you;
when you walk through fire you shall not be burned,
and the flame shall not consume you.

For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.

But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

Matthew 5:44

But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you
