1 Peter 2:19-21

19For this is a gracious thing, when, amindful of God, one endures sorrows while suffering unjustly. 20For what credit is it if, when you sin and are beaten for it, you endure? But bif when you do good and suffer for it you endure, this is a gracious thing in the sight of God. 21For cto this you have been called, dbecause Christ also suffered for you, eleaving you an example, so that you might follow in his steps.
