MNT(i)
5 For just as I have more than my share in the sufferings of the Christ, so also through the Christ I have more than my share of comfort.
6 If I am afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; and if I am receiving comfort, it is for your comfort—a comfort produced within you by your patient fortitude, under the same sufferings which I also am enduring.
7 My hope for you is firm; for I know that as you are comrades in my sufferings, so also are you comrades in my comfort.
