3 Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering works perseverance;
4 and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope:
5 and hope doesn`t disappoint us, because God`s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit which was given to us.
6 For while we were yet weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.
7 For one will hardly die for a righteous man. For perhaps for a righteous person someone would even dare to die.
8 But God commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we will be saved from God`s wrath through him.
