1 Peter 4:13-16

13but to the degree that you 1share the sufferings of Christ, keep on rejoicing, so that also at the 2revelation of His glory 3you may rejoice with exultation.

14If you are reviled 4 5for the name of Christ, 6you are blessed, 7because the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you.

15Make sure that 8none of you suffers as a murderer, or thief, or evildoer, or a 9 10troublesome meddler;

16but if anyone suffers as a 11Christian, he is not to be ashamed, but is to 12glorify God in this name.
