2 Corinthians 1:5-7

New Catholic Bible

⁵ For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so too, through Christ, do we receive our consolation. ⁶ If we are being afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation. If we are being consoled, it is to help us to console you and give you the patience and the strength to endure the same sufferings that we endure. ⁷ Our hope for you is unshaken, because we know that as you share in the sufferings, you also share in the consolations.
