Romans 5:4

Every Scripture is God-breathed and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness,

being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.

Now all these things happened to them by way of example, and they were written for our admonition, on whom the ends of the ages have come.

Count it all joy, my brothers, when you fall into various temptations,

Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his might.

For our light affliction, which is for the moment, works for us more and more exceedingly an eternal weight of glory,

I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he should repent. Has he said, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will he not make it good?

But he answered, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of God’s mouth.’ ”

Every man who strives in the games exercises self-control in all things. Now they do it to receive a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible.

All who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who has been killed.

Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.

Not only this, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces perseverance;

From now on, the crown of righteousness is stored up for me, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will give to me on that day; and not to me only, but also to all those who have loved his appearing.

Blessed are those who have been persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.

We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose.

But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one.

Listen, my beloved brothers. Didn’t God choose those who are poor in this world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the Kingdom which he promised to those who love him?

But he knows the way that I take. When he has tried me, I will come out like gold.

that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we may have a strong encouragement, who have fled for refuge to take hold of the hope set before us.

Behold, we call them blessed who endured. You have heard of the perseverance of Job, and have seen the Lord in the outcome, and how the Lord is full of compassion and mercy.

God is faithful, through whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord.

He who calls you is faithful, who will also do it.

comfort your hearts and establish you in every good work and word.

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, according to the promise of the life which is in Christ Jesus,

The rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house; and it didn’t fall, for it was founded on the rock.

which he promised before through his prophets in the holy Scriptures,

Fight the good fight of faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called, and you confessed the good confession in the sight of many witnesses.

When the chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive the crown of glory that doesn’t fade away.

you shall not listen to the words of that prophet, or to that dreamer of dreams; for Yahweh your God is testing you, to know whether you love Yahweh your God with all your heart and with all your soul.

“Because he has set his love on me, therefore I will deliver him. I will set him on high, because he has known my name.

This is my comfort in my affliction, for your word has revived me.

Though I walk in the middle of trouble, you will revive me. You will stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies. Your right hand will save me.

The refining pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold, but Yahweh tests the hearts.

I will bring the third part into the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will test them like gold is tested. They will call on my name, and I will hear them. I will say, ‘It is my people;’ and they will say, ‘Yahweh is my God.’ ”

You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake, but he who endures to the end will be saved.

strengthening the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that through many afflictions we must enter into God’s Kingdom.

to the end that you should walk worthily of God, who calls you into his own Kingdom and glory.

who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before times eternal,

You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.

Therefore I endure all things for the chosen ones’ sake, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

I am coming quickly! Hold firmly that which you have, so that no one takes your crown.

But he said to her, “You speak as one of the foolish women would speak. What? Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil?” In all this Job didn’t sin with his lips.

“Behold, happy is the man whom God corrects. Therefore do not despise the chastening of the Almighty.

Yahweh examines the righteous, but his soul hates the wicked and him who loves violence.

Yahweh’s law is perfect, restoring the soul. Yahweh’s covenant is sure, making wise the simple.

This will be written for the generation to come. A people which will be created will praise Yah.

It is good that a man should hope and quietly wait for the salvation of Yahweh.

Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be filled. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh.

But as it is written, “Things which an eye didn’t see, and an ear didn’t hear, which didn’t enter into the heart of man, these God has prepared for those who love him.”

But if anyone loves God, the same is known by him.

Finally, brothers, rejoice! Be perfected. Be comforted. Be of the same mind. Live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.

If we are faithless, he remains faithful; for he can’t deny himself.”

Now to him who is able to keep them from stumbling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory in great joy,

You shall remember all the way which Yahweh your God has led you these forty years in the wilderness, that he might humble you, to test you, to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep his commandments or not.

In all this, Job didn’t sin, nor charge God with wrongdoing.

Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God! For I shall still praise him: my Savior, my helper, and my God.

Therefore prepare your minds for action. Be sober, and set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ—

This is the promise which he promised us, the eternal life.
