³ Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

⁴ No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.

⁴ For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.

³⁷ Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

³³ These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
