“For as the sufferings of Christ abound unto us, even so our comfort also aboundeth through Christ. ”
“For as the sufferings of Christ abound to us, even so our comfort also abounds through Christ.”
“For just as the sufferings of Christ overflow toward us, so also our comfort through Christ overflows to you.”
“For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us: so also by Christ doth our comfort abound.”
“For as we undergo more of the pain which Christ underwent, so through Christ does our comfort become greater.”

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all consolation.
He consoles us in all our tribulation, so that we too may be able to console those who are in any kind of distress, through the exhortation by which we also are being exhorted by God.
For just as the Passion of Christ abounds in us, so also, through Christ, does our consolation abound.
So, if we are in tribulation, it is for your exhortation and salvation, or if we are in consolation, it is for your consolation, or if we are exhorted, it is for your exhortation and salvation, which results in the patient endurance of the same passion which we also endure.
So may our hope for you be made firm, knowing that, just as you are participants in the suffering, so also shall you be participants in the consolation.
For we do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, about our tribulation, which happened to us in Asia. For we were weighed down beyond measure, beyond our strength, so that we became weary, even of life itself.
