ephesians 3:13 Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.

ephesians 3:13 Therefore I ask you not to lose heart at my tribulations on your behalf, for they are your glory.

13. "I entreat you not to be dispirited."
for you--in your behalf.
which is--rather, "which are your glory," namely, inasmuch as showing that God loved you so much, as both to give His Son for you, and to permit His apostles to suffer "tribulations" for you [CHRYSOSTOM] in preaching the Gospel to the Gentiles. See on Eph 3:1, "prisoner for you Gentiles." My tribulations are your spiritual "glory," as your faith is furthered thereby (1Co 4:10).

ephesians 3:13 Therefore I ask you not to lose heart at my tribulations on your behalf, for they are your glory.
