The verses around 2 Corinthians 1:4.
2Grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
3Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort;
4Who 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.
5For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.
6And whether we be afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effectual in the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation.
Verse explanation
The comfort Paul receives from God doesn't stay with him alone: it equips him to comfort others going through similar hardships — suffering becomes a tool for caring for others.
From the 2 Corinthians 1 study in Bible in Stories.
