Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort,
4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.

who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.
