“For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that through patience and through encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.”
“For everything that was written in former times was written for our instruction, so that through endurance and through encouragement of the scriptures we may have hope.”
“For what things soever were written were written for our learning: that, through patience and the comfort of the scriptures, we might have hope.”
“Now those things which were put down in writing before our time were for our learning, so that through quiet waiting and through the comfort of the holy Writings we might have hope.”

But we who are stronger must bear with the feebleness of the weak, and not so as to please ourselves.
Each one of you should please his neighbor unto good, for edification.
For even Christ did not please himself, but as it was written: “The reproaches of those who reproached you fell upon me.”
For whatever was written, was written to teach us, so that, through patience and the consolation of the Scriptures, we might have hope.
So may the God of patience and solace grant you to be of one mind toward one another, in accord with Jesus Christ,
so that, together with one mouth, you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
For this reason, accept one another, just as Christ also has accepted you, in the honor of God.
