Romans 5:3-5

Christian Standard Bible

³ And not only that,^(A) but we also boast in our afflictions,^(B) because we know that affliction produces endurance,^{(C) 4} endurance produces proven character,^(D) and proven character produces hope. ⁵ This hope will not disappoint us,^(E) because God’s love has been poured out in our hearts^(F) through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
