For what is it in which you were inferior to other churches, except that I myself was not burdensome to you? Forgive me this wrong.

Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness and reveal the counsels of the hearts. Then each one's praise will be from God.

I have waited for your salvation, O Jehovah.

Then the kingdom of Heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.

and you yourselves be like men who wait for their master, when he will return from the wedding, that when he comes and knocks they may open to him immediately.

For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God.

For our citizenship is in Heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ,

and to wait for His Son from Heaven, whom He raised from the dead, even Jesus who delivers us from the coming wrath.

Hereafter, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all the ones loving His appearing.

looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ,

so Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, without sin, unto salvation.

For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise:

For yet a little while, and He who is coming will come and will not linger.

Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, waiting patiently for it until it receives the early and latter rain.

You also be patient. Make your hearts firm, for the coming of the Lord draws near.

looking for and earnestly hastening unto the coming of the Day of God, through which the heavens will be dissolved, being set on fire, and the elements will melt with intense burning?

keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

Even in the same way will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.

When Christ who is our life is revealed, then you also will be revealed with Him in glory.

and to give you who are afflicted rest with us when the Lord Jesus is revealed from Heaven with His mighty angels,

that you keep the commandment without spot, blameless until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,

which He will reveal in His own time, He who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings and Lord of lords,

Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;

but rejoice in so far as you partake of Christ's sufferings, that when His glory is revealed, you may also rejoice with exceeding joy.

and when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that does not fade away.

Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.
