19 For such men have favor before God; because of a good conscience they endure sorrows which come upon them unjustly. 20 What praise have they who endure suffering because of their faults? But when you do good, and are made to suffer, and you take it patiently, then your glory is greater with God. 21 For to this purpose you were called: because Christ also died for us, leaving us an example, that we should follow in his footsteps. 22 Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth: 23 Who, wen he was reviled, he did not revile again: when he suffered he did not threaten, but committed his cause to him who judges righteously: 1 Peter 2:19-23, Lamsa Bible.
