From Suffering to Glory

¹⁸ For I consider that ^(A)the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

¹³ but rejoice ^(A)to the extent that you partake of Christ’s sufferings, that ^(B)when His glory is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy.

Shepherd the Flock

5 The elders who are among you I exhort, I who am a fellow elder and a ^(A)witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the ^(B)glory that will be revealed:

^5 (A)who are kept by the power of God through faith for salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

^6 (B)In this you greatly rejoice, though now ^(C)for a little while, if need be, ^(D)you have been ^[a]grieved by various trials, ⁷ that ^(E)the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though ^(F)it is tested by fire, ^(G)may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ,

^4 (A)When Christ who is ^(B)our life appears, then you also will appear with Him in ^(C)glory.

⁶ For it is the God ^(A)who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has ^(B)shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
