15 Let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evildoer, or even as a busybody.
16 Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God because of it.
17 For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God, and if it begins first with us, what shall the end be for those who do not obey the gospel of God?
18 And “If the righteous one is scarcely saved,where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?”
19 So then, let those who suffer according to the will of God entrust their souls to a faithful Creator, while continuing to do good.
