I will be his father, and he shall be my son. If he commits iniquity, I will discipline him with the rod of men, and with the stripes of the children of men:
By this therefore shall the iniquity of Jacob be cleansed away; and this is all the result to take away his sin; when he makes all the stones of the altar as chalk stones that are beaten in pieces, the groves and images shall not stand again.
Blessed is the man who endures temptation: for when he has been tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord has promised to those who love him.
Behold, we consider them happy who endure. You have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the purpose of the Lord; that the Lord is full of compassion, and of tender mercy.
