καὶ αὐτοὶ ὡς λίθοι ζῶντες οἰκοδομεῖσθε οἶκος πνευματικὸς ⸀εἰς ἱεράτευμα ἅγιον, ἀνενέγκαι πνευματικὰς θυσίας ⸀εὐπροσδέκτους θεῷ διὰ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ·

Edified Edition (EDE)For so is the will of God, that with well doing you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish people:

Phonetic (Greek): poion gar kleos ei hamartanontes kai kolaphizomenoi hypomeneite; allʼ ei agathopoioyntes kai paschontes hypomeneite, toyto charis para theῷ.

Edified Edition (EDE)For what glory is it, if, when you are buffeted for your faults, you shall take it patiently? but if, when you do well, and suffer for it, you take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.

ποῖον γὰρ κλέος εἰ ἁμαρτάνοντες καὶ κολαφιζόμενοι ὑπομενεῖτε; ἀλλʼ εἰ ἀγαθοποιοῦντες καὶ πάσχοντες ὑπομενεῖτε, τοῦτο χάρις παρὰ θεῷ.
