1 Peter 1:6-9
New American Standard Bible
6 (A)In this you greatly rejoice, even though now (B)for a little while, (C)if necessary, you have been distressed by (D)various [a]trials, 7 so that the [b](E)proof of your faith, being more precious than gold which perishes (F)though tested by fire, (G)may be found to result in praise, glory, and honor at (H)the revelation of Jesus Christ; 8 and (I)though you have not seen Him, you (J)love Him, and though you do not see Him now, but believe in Him, you greatly rejoice with joy inexpressible and [c]full of glory, 9 obtaining as (K)the outcome of your faith, the salvation of [d]your souls.

New International Version
6 In all this you greatly rejoice,(A) though now for a little while(B) you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials.(C) 7 These have come so that the proven genuineness(D) of your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire(E)—may result in praise, glory and honor(F) when Jesus Christ is revealed.(G) 8 Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him(H) and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, 9 for you are receiving the end result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.(I)
