Surely, shall one say, in the LORD have I righteousness and strength: even to him shall men come; and all that are incensed against him shall be ashamed.

And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;

Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

Thy right hand, O LORD, is become glorious in power: thy right hand, O LORD, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.

To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.

But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.

To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.

If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small.

And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.

To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:

And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;

And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,

By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned,

And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;

That no man should be moved by these afflictions: for yourselves know that we are appointed thereunto.

For verily, when we were with you, we told you before that we should suffer tribulation; even as it came to pass, and ye know.

Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

For ye had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that ye have in heaven a better and an enduring substance.

For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.

Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.

Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens.

And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment:

Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.

Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;

But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain.

Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.

And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;

Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
