He has said to me,“ My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Most gladly therefore I will rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest on me.Therefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in injuries, in necessities, in persecutions, and in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then am I strong.

Isaiah 53:10-12
Yet it pleased Yahweh to bruise him. He has caused him to suffer. When you make his soul an offering for sin, he will see his offspring. He will prolong his days and Yahweh’s pleasure will prosper in his hand.After the suffering of his soul, he will see the light and be satisfied. My righteous servant will justify many by the knowledge of himself; and he will bear their iniquities.Therefore I will give him a portion with the great. He will divide the plunder with the strong; because he poured out his soul to death and was counted with the transgressors; yet he bore the sins of many and made intercession for the transgressors.

Philippians 1:12-20
Now I desire to have you know, brothers, that the things which happened to me have turned out rather to the progress of the Good News,so that it became evident to the whole palace guard, and to all the rest, that my bonds are in Christ,and that most of the brothers in the Lord, being confident through my bonds, are more abundantly bold to speak the word of God without fear.Some indeed preach Christ even out of envy and strife, and some also out of good will.The former insincerely preach Christ from selfish ambition, thinking that they add affliction to my chains;but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the Good News.What does it matter? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed. I rejoice in this, yes, and will rejoice.For I know that this will turn out to my salvation, through your prayers and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,according to my earnest expectation and hope, that I will in no way be disappointed, but with all boldness, as always, now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death.
