sufrir o padecer y ser despreciado/desdeñado/menospreciado/rechazado Explanation: "sufrir" en el sentido moral supone una paciencia más forzosa. In my opinion "martir" or "martirio" are not correct in this context. |

Sufrir y ser despreciado o menospreciado Explanation: It is a quote from a saint but the saint didn't mention martyrdom. He is just probably talking about suffering for God's sake. To be a martyr is a kind of ultimate suffering, suffering of last resource. Even if the saint opts for this choice, he's not stating that on this phrase. he's juststating his commitment to live according to God's love/will. The choice of martyrdom comes only as a last resource. |
