2 Corinthians 1:3-6 (KJV) <br /> 3 Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; <br /> 4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God. <br /> 5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ. <br /> 6 And whether we be afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effectual in the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation.
