being persecuted

¹²And all those who willingly live the piety in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.

²²And you will be hated by all for the sake of my name. But whoever will have persevered, even to the end, the same shall be saved.

¹⁰Blessed are those who endure persecution for the sake of justice, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

¹⁰Blessed are those who endure persecution for the sake of justice, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. ¹¹Blessed are you when they have slandered you, and persecuted you, and spoken all kinds of evil against you, falsely, for my sake: ¹²be glad and exult, for your reward in heaven is plentiful. For so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

¹³And you will be hated by all for the sake of my name. But whoever will have persevered unto the end, the same will be saved.

¹⁰Because of this, I am pleased in my infirmity: in reproaches, in difficulties, in persecutions, in distresses, for the sake of Christ. For when I am weak, then I am powerful.

¹¹Blessed are you when they have slandered you, and persecuted you, and spoken all kinds of evil against you, falsely, for my sake:

³⁵Then who will separate us from the love of Christ? Tribulation? Or anguish? Or famine? Or nakedness? Or peril? Or persecution? Or the sword?

³³These things I have spoken to you, so that you may have peace in me. In the world, you will have difficulties. But have confidence: I have overcome the world.”

¹⁸If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before you.

⁴⁴But I say to you: Love your enemies. Do good to those who hate you. And pray for those who persecute and slander you.

¹⁴Bless those who are persecuting you: bless, and do not curse.

²²Blessed shall you be when men will have hated you, and when they will have separated you and reproached you, and thrown out your name as if evil, because of the Son of man.

⁹Thus, the Lord knows how to rescue the pious from trials, and how to reserve the iniquitous for torments on the day of judgment;
