1 Peter 4:11-14

New King James Version

^11 (A)If anyone speaks, let him speak as the ^[a]oracles of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies, that ^(B)in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the ^[b]dominion forever and ever. Amen.

Suffering for God’s Glory

¹² Beloved, do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you; ¹³ but rejoice ^(C)to the extent that you partake of Christ’s sufferings, that ^(D)when His glory is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy. ¹⁴ If you are ^[c]reproached for the name of Christ, ^(E)blessed are you, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. ^[d]On their part He is blasphemed, ^(F)but on your part He is glorified.
