Romans 5:2-5

New American Standard Bible 1995

² through whom also we have ^(A)obtained our introduction by faith into this grace ^(B)in which we stand; and ^[a]we exult in hope of the glory of God. ^3 (C)And not only this, but ^[b]we also ^(D)exult in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about ^(E)perseverance; ⁴ and ^(F)perseverance, ^(G)proven character; and proven character, hope; ⁵ and hope ^(H)does not disappoint, because the love of God has been ^(I)poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
