1214BelovedG27, do not be surprisedG3579 at the 15fieryG4451 ordealG4451 amongG1722 you, which comesG1096 upon you for your testingG3986, as thoughG5613 some strangeG3581 thingG3581 were happeningG4819 to you; 13but to the degreeG2526 that you 16shareG2841 the sufferingsG3804 of ChristG5547, keep on rejoicingG5463, soG2443 that alsoG2532 at the 17revelationG602 of His gloryG1391 18you may rejoiceG5463 with exultationG21. 14IfG1487 you are reviledG3679 1920for the nameG3686 of ChristG5547, 21you are blessedG3107, 22becauseG3754 the SpiritG4151 of gloryG1391 and of GodG2316 restsG373 on you. 15MakeG3361 sure that 23noneG5100G3361 of you suffersG3958 as a murdererG5406, orG2228 thiefG2812, orG2228 evildoerG2555, orG2228 a 2425troublesomeG244 meddlerG244; 16but ifG1487 anyone suffers as a 26ChristianG5546, he is not to be ashamedG153, but is to 27glorifyG1392 GodG2316 in thisG3778 nameG3686. 17For it is timeG2540 for judgmentG2917 28to beginG757 29with 30the householdG3624 of GodG2316; and ifG1487 it 31begins with us firstG4413, whatG5101 will be the outcomeG5056 for thoseG3588 32who doG544 not obeyG544 the 33gospelG2098 of GodG2316? 1834And ifG1487 it is with difficultyG3433 that the righteousG1342 is savedG4982, 35whatG4226 will becomeG5316 of the 36godlessG765 manG765 and the sinnerG268?
