The God of Comfort

Blessed be(A) the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies(B) and the God of all comfort.(C) He comforts us in all our affliction,[a] so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any kind of affliction, through the comfort we ourselves receive from God. For just as the sufferings(D) of Christ(E) overflow to us, so also through Christ our comfort overflows.(F) If we are afflicted,(G) it is for your comfort and salvation. If we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings that we suffer.(H) And our hope(I) for you is firm, because we know that as you share(J) in the sufferings, so you will also share in the comfort.
