Romans 15:4
Douay-Rheims
For what things soever were written, were written for our learning: that through patience and the comfort of the scriptures, we might have hope.
John Chrysostom
That is, that we might not fall away, (for there are sundry conflicts within and without), that being nerved and comforted by the Scriptures, we might exhibit patience, that by living in patience we might abide in hope. For these things are productive of each other, patience of hope, and hope of patience. And both of them are brought about by the Scriptures.
