7 And our hope of you [is] steadfast, knowing, that as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so [shall ye be] also of the consolation.
8 For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength, so that we despaired even of life:
9 But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raiseth the dead:
10 Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver [us]:
11 Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift [bestowed] upon us by the means of many persons, thanks may be given by many on our behalf.
