2 Corinthians 4:15-17
New English Translation
15 For all these things are for your sake, so that the grace that is including[a] more and more people may cause thanksgiving to increase[b] to the glory of God. 16 Therefore we do not despair,[c] but even if our physical body[d] is wearing away, our inner person[e] is being renewed day by day. 17 For our momentary, light suffering[f] is producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison
