1:3 Suffering and comfort
3 May the God and father of our master Yeshua Messiah be blessed. He is the father of compassion and God of all comfort 4 who comforts us through all our trials so that we can comfort others through all their trials with the same comfort that God comforts us with. 5 In the same way that Messiah’s many sufferings are expected of us, so too the Messiah’s plentiful comfort also reaches us. 6 If we’re being oppressed, it’s for your comfort and salvation, and if we’re being comforted, it’s for your comfort which enables you all to endure the same sufferings that we’re suffering. 7 We have confident expectations for you all because we know that you are partners in suffering, and hence also in comfort.
8 [ref]Brothers and sisters, we don’t want you to miss out on knowing about our difficulties in the province of Asia Minor. We were weighed down with a situation totally beyond our power, so much so that we thought we wouldn’t live through it. 9 We were resigned in ourselves to the death sentence so that we wouldn’t trust in ourselves but in God who brings the dead back to life—10 the one who rescued us from that death and will rescue us again. He’s the one we put our hope in that he will continue to rescue us 11 as you also cooperated with us through your requests to him. Through this, many people will give thanks on our behalf for the gift that was granted to us in answer to the prayers of many.
