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.

Glorify God Together

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.”

10 And again he says:

n“Rejoice, O Gentiles, with His people!”

11 And again:

o“Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles!

Laud Him, all you peoples!”

12 And again, Isaiah says:

p“There shall be a root of Jesse;

And He who shall rise to reign over the Gentiles,

In Him the Gentiles shall hope.”
