Romans 15:1–13
15 We athen who are strong ought to bear with the 1scruples of the weak, and not to please ourselves. 2 bLet each of us please his neighbor for his good, leading to 2edification. 3 cFor even Christ did not please Himself; but as it is written, d“The reproaches of those who reproached You fell on Me.” 4 For ewhatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the 3patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope. 5 fNow may the God of patience and comfort grant you to be like-minded toward one another, according to Christ Jesus, 6 that you may gwith one mind and one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
7 Therefore hreceive one another, just ias Christ also received 4us, to the glory of God. 8 Now I say that jJesus Christ has become a 5servant to the circumcision for the truth of God, kto confirm the promises made to the fathers, 9 and lthat the Gentiles might glorify God for His mercy, as it is written:
m“For this reason I will confess to You among the Gentiles,
And sing to Your name.”
n“Rejoice, O Gentiles, with His people!”
o“Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles!
Laud Him, all you peoples!”
p“There shall be a root of Jesse;
And He who shall rise to reign over the Gentiles,
In Him the Gentiles shall hope.”
13 Now may the God of hope fill you with all qjoy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
