19 For if anyone endures the pain of unjust suffering because he is conscious of God {Theou}, this is to be commended.

20 How is it to your credit if you are beaten for doing wrong and you⁺ endure it? But if you suffer for doing good and you⁺ endure it, this is commendable before God {Theō}.

21 For to this you⁺ were called, because Christ (the Anointed One) also suffered for you⁺, leaving you⁺ an example, that you⁺ should follow in His footsteps:

22 “He committed no sin, and no deceit was found in His mouth .”

23 When they heaped abuse on Him, He did not retaliate; when He suffered, He made no threats, but entrusted Himself to Him who judges justly.
