- Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.
- For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ.
For by one sacrifice he has made perfect forever those who are being made holy. This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.Next verse!With image
