2 proclaim the message, be urgent in season and out of season; convince, rebuke, encourage, with never-failing patience and teaching.
2 With all humility and gentleness and long-suffering forbear with one another in love;

12 Rejoice in hope; be patient under affliction; continue stedfast in prayer.
