1 Peter 4:11-13

English Standard Version

¹¹ whoever speaks, as one who speaks ^(A)oracles of God; whoever serves, as one who serves ^(B)by the strength that God supplies—in order that in everything ^(C)God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. ^(D)To him belong glory and ^(E)dominion forever and ever. Amen.

Suffering as a Christian

¹² Beloved, do not be surprised at ^(F)the fiery trial when it comes upon you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you. ¹³ But rejoice ^(G)insofar as you share Christ's sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad ^(H)when his glory is revealed.
