American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
And not only so, but {Or, let us also rejoice}we also {Greek: glory. Verse 11; Hebrew 3:6.}rejoice in our tribulations: knowing that tribulation worketh stedfastness;
They are not of the world even as I am not of the world.
Have this mind in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
And we know that to them that love God {Some ancient authorities read God worketh all things with them for good.}all things work together for good, even to them that are called according to his purpose.
Count it all joy, my brethren, when ye fall into manifold {Or, trials}temptations;
knowing that the proving of your faith worketh {Or, stedfastness}patience.
For ye have need of {Or, stedfastness}patience, that, having done the will of God, ye may receive the promise.
But he that endureth to the end, the same shall be saved.
Blessed is the man that endureth temptation; for when he hath been approved, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord promised to them that love him.
