林後1:3-5

願頌讚歸與我們的主耶穌基督的父神，就是發慈悲的父，賜各樣安慰的神。

我們在一切患難中，他就安慰我們，

叫我們能用神所賜的安慰去安慰那遭各樣患難的人。

我們既多受基督的苦楚，就靠基督多得安慰。

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort,

who comforts us in all our troubles,

so that we can comfort those in any trouble

with the comfort we ourselves have received from God.

For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives,

so also through Christ our comfort overflows.

羅8:26-28

況且我們的軟弱有聖靈幫助，我們本不曉得當怎樣禱告，

只是聖靈親自用說不出來的歎息替我們禱告。

鑒察人心的，曉得聖靈的意思，因為聖靈照著神的旨意替聖徒祈求。

我們曉得萬事都互相效力，叫愛神的人得益處，就是按他旨意被召的人。

In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness.

We do not know what we ought to pray for,

but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express.

And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit,

because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God's will.

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him,

who have been called according to his purpose.
