who encouragesa us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to encourage those who are in any tribulation whatever, through the encouragement with which we ourselves are encouraged of God.

JND Translation Notes

a
Parakaleo, as Matt. 2.18; 5.4; Acts 20.12; 1 Thess. 3.7. I do not say "comfort," as that is rather conveyed in paramutheomai, so translated in 1 Thess. 2.11; 5.14; "console," John 11.19,31; and "consolation," 1 Cor. 14.3. The difference is slight, but here, as in Acts 20, there is the sense of "cheered," and this might replace "encourage" and "encouragement" if there were a suitable noun.
