3
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all consolation,
4
who consoles us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to console those who are in any affliction with the consolation with which we ourselves are consoled by God.
5
For just as the sufferings of Christ are abundant for us, so also our consolation is abundant through Christ.
