⁴⁷ Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.

⁶ And whether we be afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effectual in the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation.
