Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body’s sake, which is the church:
Ahora me alegro de mis sufrimientos por ustedes, porque estoy completando en mi carne lo que falta de las aflicciones de Cristo por su cuerpo, que es la iglesia.
Pablo se alegra de sufrir por la iglesia porque así completa la obra de Cristo en favor de su pueblo.
