⁸ Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit.

³⁶ For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.

²⁹ He that is slow to wrath is of great understanding: but he that is hasty of spirit exalteth folly.

¹³ Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;

⁵ They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

⁶ He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
