Amplified Bible
1 Peter 2:19-23
19For this finds favor, if a person endures the sorrow of suffering unjustly because of an awareness of [the will of] God.
20After all, what kind of credit is there if, when you do wrong and are punished for it, you endure it patiently? But if when you do what is right and patiently bear [undeserved] suffering, this finds favor with God.
21For [as a believer] you have been called for this purpose, since Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you may follow in His footsteps.
22He committed no sin, nor was deceit ever found in His mouth.
23While being reviled and insulted, He did not revile or insult in return; while suffering, He made no threats [of vengeance], but kept entrusting Himself to Him who judges fairly.
