1 Petrus 4:12-13

4:12 Dear friends, do not be astonished ¹  that a trial by fire is occurring among you, ²  as though something strange were happening to you. 4:13 But rejoice in the degree that you have shared in the sufferings of Christ, so that when his glory is revealed ³  you may also rejoice and be glad. ⁴ 

[4:12]  ¹ tn Or “do not be surprised, taken aback.” The same verb occurs in 4:4.

[4:12]  ² tn Grk “at the burning among you, occurring to you for testing.”

[4:13]  ³ tn Grk “in the revelation of his glory.”

[4:13]  ⁴ tn The verb “be glad” is used also in 1:6 and 1:8. The verbs of v. 13b are used together in Matt 5:12 and Rev 19:7.
