25 But about the middle of the night, Paul and Silas were praying and praising God with song,+ and the prisoners were listening to them.

3 Not only that, but let us rejoice* while in tribulations,+ since we know that tribulation produces endurance;+

10 So I take pleasure in weaknesses, in insults, in times of need, in persecutions and difficulties, for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am powerful.+

29 For you have been given the privilege in behalf of Christ, not only to put your faith in him but also to suffer in his behalf.+

34 For you expressed sympathy for those in prison and you accepted joyfully the plundering of your belongings,+ knowing that you yourselves have a better and an enduring possession.+

13 On the contrary, go on rejoicing+ over the extent to which you are sharers in the sufferings of the Christ,+ so that you may rejoice and be overjoyed also during the revelation of his glory.+
