If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you. On their part he is blasphemed, but on your part he is glorified.

ગુજરાતીપિતરનો પહેલો પત્ર ૪:૧૪
જો ખ્રિસ્તનાં નામને કારણે તમારી નિંદા થતી હોય, તો તમે આશીર્વાદિત છો, કેમ કે મહિમાનો તથા ઈશ્વરનો આત્મા તમારા પર રહે છે.
हिन्दी1 पतरस ४:१४
फिर यदि मसीह के नाम के लिये तुम्हारी निन्दा की जाती है, तो धन्य हो; क्योंकि महिमा की आत्मा, जो परमेश्वर की आत्मा है, तुम पर छाया करती है। (मत्ती 5:11-12)

In context

12Beloved, don’t be astonished at the fiery trial which has come upon you to test you, as though a strange thing happened to you.

13But because you are partakers of Christ’s sufferings, rejoice, that at the revelation of his glory you also may rejoice with exceeding joy.

14If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you. On their part he is blasphemed, but on your part he is glorified.

15But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil doer, or a meddler in other men’s matters.

16But if one of you suffers for being a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God in this matter.
