Romans 5:3 Douay-Rheims

And not only so; but we glory also in tribulations, knowing that tribulation worketh patience;

Clement of Alexandria

c. A.D. 150–215 Patristic

Divinely, therefore, Paul writes expressly, "Tribulation worketh, patience, and patience experience, and experience hope; and hope maketh not ashamed." For the patience is on account of the hope in the future.
