2 Corinthians 1:3-7
International Standard Version
The God of All Comfort
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus, the Messiah![a] He is our merciful Father and the God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our suffering, so that we may be able to comfort others in all their suffering, as we ourselves are being comforted by God. 5 For as the Messiah’s[b] sufferings overflow into us, so also our comfort overflows through the Messiah.[c] 6 If we suffer, it is for your comfort and salvation. If we are comforted, it is for your comfort when you patiently endure the same sufferings that we are suffering. 7 Our hope for you is unshaken, because we know that as you share our sufferings, you also share our comfort.
