Therefore, seeing we have this ministration, according as we have obtained mercy, we faint not;
But you, brethren, be not weary in well doing.
And in doing good, let us not fail. For in due time we shall reap, not failing.
Wherefore I pray you not to faint at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.
I can do all these things in him who strengtheneth me.
For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man is corrupted, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
And thou hast patience, and hast endured for my name, and hast not fainted.
For think diligently upon him that endured such opposition from sinners against himself; that you be not wearied, fainting in your minds.
Who also hath made us fit ministers of the new testament, not in the letter, but in the spirit. For the letter killeth, but the spirit quickeneth.
Who in time past were not a people: but are now the people of God. Who had not obtained mercy; but now have obtained mercy.
Who before was a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and contumelious. But I obtained the mercy of God, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.
But all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Christ; and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation.
Having therefore such hope, we use much confidence:
Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment of the Lord; but I give counsel, as having obtained mercy of the Lord, to be faithful.
Youths shall faint and labour: and young men shall fall by infirmity.
But they that hope in the Lord shall renew their strength: they shall take wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.
Thou hast said: Woe is me, wretch that I am, for the Lord hath added sorrow to my sorrow! I am wearied with my groans and I find no rest.
AND he spoke also a parable to them, that we ought always to pray, and not to faint,
The ministers of him whom you have believed; and to every one as the Lord hath given.
